Best Zoo everby Yahoo | 2008-07-02 22:21:36 |

So many things to see, great exhibits, if you like zoos, don't miss Denver. Easy access, and lots of animals. Very nice to walk around and generally not crowded on weekdays.

This zoo is big. Lots of animals. Make sure you get there from 10-4/5 pm. Bring sunscreen and a lunch, and prepare for the worst parking. It's good to be prepared.

we can't wait to go back! It was tons of fun.by Yahoo | 2008-01-11 16:14:42 |

There was nothing to not like! It was an incredible experience. My kids had so much fun. We were fascinated the moment we got there. Even my twin 15 year old son and daughter had fun.

I enjoyed this place the most. This zoo is the funniest place to take the family. Lots of animals and wild life to see. Great vacation place to visit.

Pleasantly impressedby Yahoo | 2007-08-23 21:46:08 |

Much larger than I expected so I had a great time. Lots of statues for photo opps. Has a jump-on and off tram, a train and carousel. A great place to spend the day!

This zoo is just full of life! Its set-up is nice and it has some unique animals. The only thing i don't like is that you can't pet the animals. i am only ll though...

Awesomeby Yahoo | 2007-02-19 17:57:33 |

I have been to this zoo numerous times (when I lived in Denver) and enjoy it more each time. It is not that expensive and very educational and fun for all ages. Their zoo lights display each year is wonderful. A definite must when visiting Denver.

"Just passing thru"by Yahoo | 2006-07-10 05:06:08 |

We were just driving thru Denver on our way to California from Oklahoma and we decided to stop and see. From the beginning everything was first class. I liked the Security in the parking lot since we were traveling and had alot of stuff in the car. Everything was so clean! My fifteen year old daughter really liked your two story Gift Shop and all the employees there were eager to help us. I really liked the coffee shop atmosphere. My daughter also enjoyed your Penguin exhibit and I really enjoyed the Great Apes. My wife loved the variety of animals that you have and the quality of the habitats. She also loved the Gift Shop as well. Next time we are anywhere near Denver we will go out of our way to get to the Zoo and as early as possible. Thanks for doing a Great Job in Denver.

Great Zooby Yahoo | 2006-07-09 19:26:52 |

We really enjoyed the zoo. We didn't really come across anything we disliked. Seen some babies and a couple of shows. The kids really liked it. Would probably not make it on the to do list for our next trip as it seemed like any zoo. To many other things to do in Colorado. But if you like zoos it was well worth going.
