Yeah..... NO! $20 to get in is a good deal but they drop the ball on customer service. As did the Joselyn Art Museum. 1) The electric cripple scooters ($25) do NOT hold a charge, I got stranded TWICE with the damn thing and the first time, the kid gave me a story about why I couldnt exchange it for a freshly charged one. 2) After getting stuck a 2nd time, they sent a girl out with a replacement but she had to PUSH the dead one back by hand. Jesus, thats ridiculous! 3) Was sold 4 rides on that "Skyfari" cable car ride, rather than a round trip. Was told NO refunds for the overage sold to me, I let loose with some New York City vocabulary, which got a manager sent to issue the $6 refund. 4) Manager withheld my credit card (accidentally) but luckily chased me down to return it afterwards or else I would have been very screwed! 5) When leaving at 5pm, I noticed a few single moms entering with strollers of toddlers. Upon asking them WHY, I found out they thought the place was open until 9pm rather than 5pm. Okay.... you twits NEED to post your hours in a more NOTICEABLE manner, rather than SCREWING YOUNG MOMS OUT OF CASH FOR THEIR KIDS! 6) Parents need to teach their kids NOT to throw food wrappers into the cages where the animals could choke on such things. Havent you nitwit parents heard of SPANKINGS? No of course not, thats not politically correct anymore, is it? 7) Their website gives a "request error" message most mornings. This is a rant about PEOPLE, the animals however were just fine.

When my kids was small, we went once a week for few hours. My suggestion (if possible) avoid weekend or May (full of school trips) or summer time. Monday would be least crowd. If you have to go during that time, plan it accordingly. Visit either early morning for easier parking or around 1 pm since most morning people left for lunch. But the best time would be 3 or 4 pm, weather already cool especially in fall/autumn season. Exhibit said close around 6 pm but most likely still open till late. We often stay till 7 pm or start walking to exit around 7 pm. They dont chase people out especially when weather is nice. We enjoyed the playground, digging area etc.Anyway I cant say enough about this zoo. MUST VISIT! And they always make some improvement and make it interesting every year. Most zoo that we visited in US, cant compare with this one.

I definitely know why it is rated one of the best zoos in the world. Ive seen dozens of zoos across the world and its hard not to agree. A fantastic layout with an amazing selection of animals. Really easy to navigate through and walk around. Everything is really reasonably priced - including the gift store. The baby animals (at the time the tiger cubs and a cheeky orangutan) were the highlight!

This is an amazing zoo! Get here early plan to walk out at closing. The kiosks and rides start closing early, so get those things done before 4:00. This is a large zoo, so do not think that you will see everything on your first visit. Wear your walking or hiking shoes. If you go see a show at the iMax, you loose an hour and a half of zoo time.

GOING HERE SHOULD BE ON EVERYONES BUCKET LIST!!!!!! I have been to both the San Diego zoo and this one and I can say without a shadow of doubt, that the Henry Doorly Zoo is by far the better experience. For the amount of money you spend, you pay half as much for easily double the content. This is the best zoo in America, hands down!

Get here early and stay the entire day. Then come back and do it for the next week. Thats the only way youll be able to see all there is to offer here. I cant believe how large this Zoo has become and they are currently in construction mode to add even more parking and space! I cant wait to see what its like when I visit next.

Quite a few empty enclosures. Food and drinks were very expensive. Friendly staff. Definitely would suggest restricting stroller use to areas that suffer congestion (desert and aquarium especially) as they block walkway and exhibits/enclosures. Enclosures appeared quite small when compared with other zoos I have been too.

This is, without a doubt, one of the nicest zoos I have ever been in. It is clean. Most of the animals live in natural exhibits. The restaurants, although busy at peak times, have good food at reasonable prices. Feeding the stingrays was one of coolest experiences that my family has had together. 100% recommend!!

Friendly staff care about the experience of humans and animals. This zoo is a great place for kids to see how precious wildlife is, and how we need to be good stewards of the earth. The Henry Doorly Zoo does important conservation research, and provides education for people of all ages.

Its so big and has a lot of species. The tropical jungle n the butterflies was the best. Its so big that it takes atleast 2 days to cover everything. However, if you are fit enough, can cover in a day provided you go at the time it opens. And be sure to take lots of snacks.!

I can see why people call it the best zoo in the world! There are so many animals from all over the world and they seem to be doing a great job keeping them safe and healthy! The staff was very nice an friendly to us. The new play water area looks super fun for the kids!

One of the best zoos that I have visited. Great exhibits and environments and they continue to add on and upgrade. The large layout and grounds make the experience not seem crowded. Make sure to do the sky ride and go to all levels of the dome and rainforest.

Amazing Zoo! Must spend at least full day. If you have stroller walk park. If no stroller get unlimited ride pass and take train and tram. Lots of interaction and encounter with all types of animals. Staff all very friendly and helpful.

Been going here since I was a child it just keeps getting better and better every year. My kids always look forward to going here when we visit Omaha now. They loved the additions they added this past year this summer.
