My visit to the zoo was very enjoyable. It is small but packed with animals. Most of my favirites were there. The park itself is absolutely beautiful. The landscaping is gorgeous and the park was clean. I would definitely recommend.

I have visited many zoos this ranks in my top 5. Its a medium sized zoo. Water extremely over priced. Enjoyed seeing the animals. Was not aware of the water attraction based on website. 3 hours was plenty. Lots of shade to help combat the heat.

Humid, but fun. The ride was cool and the bus was clean. I enjoyed the gorillas and the water fountain

The Audubon zoo is always our favorite over the years! Especially for Mother’s Day. There were a lot of things that were closed, unfortunately, and a train was broken. Two of our favorite things are the seals and the train and they were both out of service. Did Louisiana exhibit was fabulous as always! The food at the Caffe there was on point New Orleans, delicious. Overall, the zoo is always clean, refreshments everywhere to cool you off, and the staff is friendly.

Plan accordingly, it is very hig and there are places for younger kids to play, even adults. Wish there were more animals to see. Some enclosures were empty or what was display you couldn't see. It's understandable the zoo my be relocating or changing things. Overall the zoo was enjoyable. To see my 16yr daughter get excited was the best experience!

This zoo does
A great job with creating a nice atmosphere for you to enjoy while walking around. All the animals were out the day we went and my kids really enjoyed it

Great zoo trip even though it rained. Animals were really out and about.
Zoo had great access to animals and all were easy to see. Not very crowded.

We were not able to visit the zoo because my pass couldn’t load. We paid for the activity but did not get to use it.

Parking is a mess, honestly that was the worst part. The ehhibits were awesome. Staff was awesome. By far my favorite zoo so far. The only zoo I've been to so far that my kids didn't get bored, they only got hungry. Plenty of food and plenty of family fun.
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the zoo. We have had some very busy days recently where overflow parking was necessary. Thank you for your patience with it.

The best option to avoid a long line is to buy a ticket online. It is helpful to rent a stroller, since the park is so spacious. The Zoo cafe stopped taking orders around 1 pm, so that was a negative because we were not able to eat lunch. The gumbo trail restaurant also stopped taking orders, so we left the park to eat. We packed small snacks, but planned to eat there. It would have been great if the train was available, but it was not.

Great variety of animals. Just be aware that some of them tend to disappear from view when nearing the park’s closing time

Great time. Lots of animals having fun playing with each other. Great picture opportunities. Lots of shade. Lots of drinks and snacks throughout.

Beautiful Zoo and area of town. Lots to see including Capybara, lions, rhinos, and painted dogs. Setting is really nice and wasn't crowded

Clean, well spaced out exhibits
Enjoyed our day at the zoo. Fans at seating areas a plus. Thank you.

Lots to see! We had a nice day and was fascinated with the primates and reptile exhibition! Loved the train ride around the zoo!

Good half day zoo if you go to all of the talks. Zoo on the smaller side. I went again only because of the Taylor Swift decorations reported in the press which was a nice touch.

To see the animals both live and extinct the dinosaur display brilliant
I enjoyed the layout of the zoo well signposted and very clean
Alicia_R, Jun 2026
The zoo is beautiful, the setting of each section is spectacular, and the animals are very varied. Unfortunately, in the Asia section, practically all the animals were kept away, and we could not see them (tiger, bear, elephant, etc.)
