With a growing love of all things animal at our house, weve been frequenting more zoos, aquariums and basically anywhere that has anything to do with animals. We enjoyed out time here and while its not a gigantic zoo, it provided a nice little afternoon get away that was perfect for kiddos. The prices to get in were very reasonable - I think it was $8.25 per adult, $6.25 for 3-12 year olds and under 3 was free. The extras like riding the train, feeding animals and animal rides are all $1-4, but you can basically do everything you want for around $35. The place is not super large and takes about 1.5-2 hours to walk around with kiddos. The exhibits werent overly large, but it meant we could all see the animals easily. The big cat exhibits were very nice, the lions were beautiful and the giraffes were fantastic. Similar to the exhibit in Des Moines, theyve got lots of room to roam and are viewed easily from just about anywhere. The Zebra/Ostrich enclosure was also nice - I think they have an unspoken bond as this is the third or fourth place that these two have been together. The Coi pond and petting areas were also lovely - most of the animal food is 50 cents for a handful - or free if you pick it up from off the ground near the machines as our kids did! Bring a couple dollars in quarters and some hand sanitizer. Even if you forget the hand wash, they have plenty there. Interestingly, the food wasnt bad and it wasnt terribly priced. A burger was something like $4 and bottled water was $1. Certainly expensive, but not as bad as wed thought. The walk was nice with limited hills and plenty of shade and well placed bathrooms for the little dudes. All in all, we enjoyed this zoo and found it to be a solid place to spend a few hours. While its not the San Diego zoo, a family of 4 pays $200 to get in there. This is a nice little spot an hour from Iowa city and super close to the quad cities. Well worth checking out.

This was the first time going to this Zoo, I went on Sat Sep 24, 2016 Well never will I go back again. First I had to Pay for 4 adults and 2 kids which cost me almost 60.00 to get in. Once in there are very few animals at all most of the cages were totally empty. The animals that were there were so sickly looking even a camel was laying totally on its side with its back leg twitching I thought it was dying. Not one cage did I see any food for the animals, or fresh or clean water to drink. There were a few water holes in maybe 3 of the cages but the water was so green and bubbles or soapy looking on top that it looked as if poisoned. The only time I seen any food for any animal you had to pay for it. Had to pay $4.00 for two little leaf of lettuce for my son to feed the giraffe, and $2.00 for a little cup of some kind of green juice to feed the birds in this one cage. Other then that most of the animals there were available to see on a farm. Pigs , goats, chickens, rabbits, lamas and cows. If I wanted to see that I would have gone to a farm to see that. This place was a total disgrace for a zoo or even saying they are a zoo. IF anything someone should contact the local authority and report animal cruelty. Hell even dogs in a pound have it better then these animals had it. Little to no shade, no water, no food, dirty cages, smelled bad, and cost a lot for nothing there but sick looking animals. I even tried to look for someone who worked at the zoo to report the camel which was laying on it side and couldnt find anyone other then the people collecting money at the door. Dont waste your money going there, Hell what you pay you can put into gas and drive to St. Louis to a real Zoo.

We have been going to Niabi Zoo for years and have always enjoyed it, however, I must say, we are definitely loving the recent changes and updates to the zoo and are excited to see whats coming next! The staff were knowledgeable and friendly. The zoo is always clean. The animals seemed to have fresh food and water. For first-timers, the train ride is a must! A nice little ride around the park to get a glimpse of everything. The new playground is an awesome addition! Our boys, ages 8 and 9, loved it. Feeding the giraffes is fun. A little pricey, so we dont do it at every visit. Remember to bring quarters, so you can feed the koi fish at the pond and the goats at the little animal farm. :-) One comment on the downside. My husband says putting the bluegills in the koi pond is probably a mistake, as he says they breed very quickly and hes afraid they will take over and the koi will die out. Hopefully not, that would be a shame. The new bunnies in the domestic farm area are absolutely adorable! Dont miss them ♡ We really liked the location changes for some of the animals. The carpeting and the gift shop in the bio building (sorry, I cant remember what its called) are fantastic new additions! It has such a more welcoming and comfortable feel now. All in all, we were impressed and so happy we are zoo members! Will definitely be updating our membership when it expires! Cant wait til June, when the new "Oceans" exhibit opens!!!
