A great place to stroll with the kids!by Yahoo | 2009-01-08 09:13:53 |

I would recommend this non-profit zoo. It is open all year, has free parking and I got the pretty cheap membership pass that gives additional discount on almost anything inside the zoo. My kids loves the carousel (bring 2 dollar bills/ per kid!) & all of the statue and things they can touch and climb onto, it keeps them interested! They also love to feed the birds (bring quarters)... My favorite part is the outdoor giftshop!

Excellent small Zooby Yahoo | 2006-01-10 00:05:11 |

The Palm Beach Zoo at Dreher Park is rather close to my residence near the Trump golf course. I have visited zoos all over the world but had never before visited this one, and was very pleasantly surprised at the quality of the grounds and exhibits. This is especially true where a severe hurricane passed through this area not very long ago. Of special importance is the presence of two young jaguar cubs and their mother. In the afternoon, all three were romping about their naturalistic exhibit with abandon, sometime coming as close as a few feet from the observation areas. Absolutely fantastic! This alone was worth the minimal entrance fee. Moreover, the zoo's staff was exceptionally nice and helpful. All in all, it was an outstanding experience, and one I will be repeating on a regular basis.

A great experience!!by Yahoo | 2005-06-09 01:00:49 |

It was very Florida (palm trees and flowers) and the staff was great with helping us with directions or questions about the animals. The free shows were very informative and delightfully done. The zoo has many displays that are educational and fun for kids. The prices were very good for families and we would definitely go back--a great place to recommend for any one.
