Nice little zoo. Many of the enclosures are empty.

Mary Ogle

Very impressive really enjoyed our little family visit to the zoo. Great walking and very personable people we shall be returning for more visits in the future. The animals look well and attended to with great respect a very admirable feature of the zoo and it's staff.

Timothy Stuckey

It was a nice walk. The food was a little high but good.

Ryan O.

Great zoo for a small town. Beautiful animals, easy to walk and follow paths. Plenty of well placed cool down areas.

Justin Breems

Very well laid out. Lots of different exhibits for a smaller city zoo. From small Tamarins to lions they have a gray variety of animals to see.

Jana Reed

A wonderful place to hang out with friends and family. My church Calvary Baptist has rented the zoo for two hours and we are having a blast!! Even on regular trips we have fun!! Love our zoo!

John Warzynski

Great day at the zoo, many animals were out and active for a change, could have been the weather, rapidly changing weather conditions. The animals awake and noisy. A lot of fun for all who were visiting this Father's Day. The staff were polite and friendly. Parking lot was easy to find a spot.

Tina Arthur

It was a great day with my Bug's (granddaughters)

Jimbo Earles

It's a great little Zoo! Especially for a small town zoo The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars from me is. Because I've been to the San Diego Zoo... This is no San Diego Zoo but still a great one. We are lucky to have it in our area and proud to be members!

Jeff Lee

Has all the animals you want to see. It takes about 2 to 3 hours to go through. You can get close to the big cats.

Kerry Alwell

It's really an amazing zoo, especially for a small town the size of Alexandria.

Tylor Robert

Gavent been here in 4 years and its amazing. Grrat changes has happened. A must stop if in Alexandria

jaysun78j

I’ve been coming here since kindergarten. Its not a huge place but its a nice stop to enjoy some animals and nature. My kids enjoy it, despite going to Dallas zoo and Animal Kingdom in Florida.

Kara Mazzarisi

Love this zoo. It feels so natural and the animals mostly all have companions and are active and seem happy. They get an A+ in my books!!

Rhoda Washington

Had fun with grands...they truly enjoyed it!!!

Drako45

Regena Calmes

Wonderful exhibits and animals. Fun for every age

Hensley Garlington

Wonderful zoo. A little small.

Angela Weiss

Awesome park. Cleanest and healthiest zoo/park I've seen. Animals are well-cared for in natural habitats. Prices are so reasonable you can't pass it up. Staff was extremely accommodating. They give them lots of treats. Animals looked very happy. They have some nice rare endangered animals that were displaced from their homes. Their signs are educational and also a cafe on premise. Highly recommend!

Catina Honore

Lisa Ann Frederic

We were there for about 6 hours. It was a wonderful experience!

Wendy Rich

Excellent zoo. The animals are well taken care of and are very active. The grounds are kept up nicely. Very friendly staff, and reasonably priced tickets. A great place to take the family.

Kimberly Dauzat

Animals never seem active. I've been a lot and they mostly just sleep. Train ride is fun. I want to see an elephant.

Patricia Tritle

Event tonight was great! Some animals were visible, most were not. Train rides through park were also available. Great time for all.

Sonny Warbington

Fun time with the kiddos. It’s always a go-to slot when boredom hits and there’s nowhere to go in Alexandria. For a small city this zoo is very nice. They have cool events for Halloween and Christmas and throughout the year. It’s worth the trip and is a good way to occupy children’s imagination for a few hours.

Ashley Cook

Its okay. 10 years ago it was better though.

Kayla Thibodeaux

Very awesome place. My kids love coming here. They have a lot of different animals. They keep expanding.

Melissa Aymond

Lots to see, well laid out friendly staff.

Catherine Collins

The Alexandria Zoo was beautiful. We were able to see the animals close up. It was small but the spaces were used thoughtfully. I would go back again.

Peace by Pain

Great place for the kids. Just wish they wouldn't have so many exhibits with no animals.

Logan Fontenot

Great zoo. Variety of animals is well worth the price. Kids love the train.

R Stewart

Alexandria Zoo all the animals were out and about. A place to visit again.

Leo Panthera

This place is amazing, some of the inclosures seem small but i didnt see one animal i would call unhappy. I hope Grandmaster Steve Irwin would approve

April Jacobson

If you can travel from monroe and skip the zoo there, I would highly recommend it. These animals here look happy and well taken care of. They have space to live in, lots of accessories, appear well fed, and genuinely are really uplifting to hang out around. Some zoo's the animals just appear to be sad animals in a small space... not here. The train ride is short albeit, but very fun and on actual tracks. Great views of the animals here as well.

Anthony Jones

We all enjoyed this zoo as it surprised me as to the amount of animals they had and how close you were able to get to the animals. Would definitely recommend this zoo.

phippler

Really enjoy this zoo. Especially love going through the Louisiana exhibit.

Julie Shepherd

This review is more about Holiday Lights Safari. It is a wonderful time with my kids every December. It was fun tonight, even in the rain. None of the workers complained or seemed bothered about working in the rain, even the train conductor. We enjoyed the hot chocolate, Debbie's Meat Pies were amazing, and Santa actually made my toddler feel comfortable for once. Thanks Alexandria Zoo!

Richard Marcano

A very lovely zoo. Plenty of shade, a large variety of animals. It felt magical, the enclosures had fans in them, and the animals were very reactive and lively.

Paula Baldridge

Needs some updates, especially the train ride. Couldn't hear any of the vocalizations, and only saw the back side of the zoo. Mostly the fences.

sirachxi

One of the best zoo's in the south. Well put together considering how it was expanded over the years. Has a lot of trees so going through it at 90 degrees was not so bad you had to keep stopping. Great exhibits and animals. Helpful staff and great programs during different parts of the year. If I lived closer I would join FOTAZ (friends of the Alexandria zoo) so I could go almost every day.

Michelle Palmer

Such a great zoo! It is really well laid out so there are lots of animals to see without having to walk too much. Also, the walkways are almost entirely shaded. It is well set up for children, even those still in strollers. There are also good spaces for sitting, eating, and playing.

Terri Chandler

I had a great time all the animals very pretty my kids had fun. It's a good place to have a family day an lots of fun

Cary slagh

Nice little zoo, friendly staff, fun little train ride. The animals and enclosure were good. The enclosures to us seemed a little on the small side, but again not a big zoo. Seeing the white tiger was amazing.

Laken GB Armstrong

Kids had a blast on their field trip here. Great place to take kids. Good time for both adults and children!!

Sean P

Awsome place big selection of animals parks clean and the kids loved it will be back

Kale LeBlanc

Clean, good selection of animals. Reasonable price.

shawn moehnke

Takes about 2 hours to walk around and see everything. Small enough for kids to see everything before they get bored. Do it right and at the end they have a park for the kids to burn the last of their energy.

micalet kemp

We loved it but of the workers did not seem that helpful when we asked them somethinh

american muscle car 2019 turner

Great time with family at the 2019 Zoo boo.

Jennifer Daley

We loved it. Especially with the it bring pretty cheap to get in. It was nice.

Ashley LeBlanc

Great experience! When we arrived the wait for the tickets wasnt long. Although when we left the line was really long woth just one person at the admission counter. The ticket prices are very reasonable for what you get to experience. Children 3 and under free. 4 to 12 is 5.50. Adults are 7.50 and I cant remember. We kinda rushed through it and it took an hour and a half. There is a playground that looked fun for the kids. When you walk in you immediately notice how clean it is. Its not overwhelming with the typical zoo smell right when you walk in although as you get deeper in the zoo the smell is noticeable. Most of the animal areas are well taken care of. There are a variety of different animals to see.

Shawn Fee

We drive 2 hours, past our local zoo, to come here. The amount and variety of beautiful animals is hard to beat. Prices are VERY reasonable. Staff are polite and helpful.

Bediha Ward

Fun. Concessions. Were closed tho. We Had. A pretty. Ok time. It was inexpensive.

Amber Smith

This zoo is fabulous!! They keep it very clean. The animals are very well kept. They have a cafe and vending machines throughout the facility. The prices are very reasonable! We loved it. We will definitely be back!!

Laura Driver

Great place to visit. High prices, but fun to go to with kids

sirachxi

Kyle Franklin

The best zoo in the state. The animals are well cared for and the park theming is on par with any amusement park.

Michelle Palmer

Such a great zoo! It is really well laid out so there are lots of animals to see without having to walk too much. Also, the walkways are almost entirely shaded. It is well set up for children, even those still in strollers. There are also good spaces for sitting, eating, and playing.

Brad7h Pereira

Fun and almost entirely covered in shade. Will go again

only bonjour

Very nice and the staff were welcoming and friendly.I highly recommend it.

Gnarlyleech

A very nice zoo surprisingly. Took a few hours to get through everything.

David Gordon

For the size of it was a great park

Amanda Mayes

Had a really great time with my daughter and grandson

Robert Bennett Jr

I was spending time with my family

Lanie White

Great place to walk and kill time. Being a member is such a huge perk. You can easily spend a day just hanging out walking around.

Karen Pritchett

Way too many rodents and birds not enuf other species.. The squirrel monkeys were the best

krissy williams

The zoo is so much fun! They have done a lot if renovations and it has paid off. The zoo has a great selection of animals to look at and the price to enter is not bad at all. The train rides costs $2.00 per person and although it is fun to ride, it is not really made for adults to ride. Adults can ride on it but you will have to squish up your knees, lol. Definitely a great place to bring the family.

ShockaKawn One

I loved it and the Alexandria Zoo will forever be a important part of my child hood memories

Amanda Jackson

I loved the zoo. a variety of animals to see but alot of empty cages

Frank Sicuro

It's a great small town zoo experience

Chan'Tell Chew

It's one of my fave spots since I was a child. I have just passed the torch to my children. It's the one place I can go here to see something beautiful and would to see them eventually set free.

Mary Blade

Great place for children and adult. I took my summer children group from my church

Doug

This was an awesome trip. The weather was great and the staff friendly. I certainly recommend you stop by here.

Terri Chandler

I had a great time all the animals very pretty my kids had fun. It's a good place to have a family day an lots of fun

William Graham

The Zoo gets better every year. Dec going to continue to be a tradition for my family going into the Future

Cary slagh

Nice little zoo, friendly staff, fun little train ride. The animals and enclosure were good. The enclosures to us seemed a little on the small side, but again not a big zoo. Seeing the white tiger was amazing.

mason hagan

I enjoyed the walk through the zoo. Some areas are under construction but still a really nice zoo.

Chandra Thibodeaux

The kids enjoyed themselves and there was plenty of shade.

Courtney Rogers

Best Zoo I've been to so far. Long walk but worth it. Went on a field trip. Lots of animals to see and I love that we were able to feed the fish. The train ride was pleasant.

Penni Blow

My husband and I visited. Just the two of us. We enjoyed our train ride, but it started to storm. We were sad not to finish our visit because we have been before with our grandchildren and loved it!!

Rajeanna Brown

Great famliy fun. My baby couldn't stop talking the ducks throughout the zoo.

Lauren Burkhart

Absolutely love it! Beautiful zoo! There are a lot of different amazing animals. There is a lot of shade to help keep you cooler in the hot Louisiana sunshine. They also have fans and misters to keep you cool. It's a great place for the whole family! Plus you won't blow the budget!

chase morace

Great variety of exhibits. Always trying to find new ways to get people interested in wildlife conservation.

Sarah Ewell

There was a lot of animals not there, signs that said fixing the exhibit.

Lieselotte Kramer-LaCour

Every time coming to the Alexandria Zoo is like a brand new experience. There's always something to encounter. The playground is a plus for my grandson , and the Palm Cafe has the best French Fries in town.

Jackie Dantzler

Went early in morning. Animals were out. Great to see them. Several paths were closed and we had to reroute with some back tracking. Still it was fun. And will be even better once the remodeling is done. Train ride now has an informational recording play during trip. Interesting.

Sarah McDonald

It’s was awesome. I loved it as much as the kids. There’s so much to see there and it’s close to home for me. Can’t wait to go back!

B&E adventures

Most animals were not in their cages when we went so we only saw about 10-15 and most were monkeys also the palm cafe is way over priced they charged me $2 for a tummie yummie and at Walmart I can get one for $0.75 and at super one I can get 3 for $1 also the train was not running so that's a bummer. but overall it is a good place to take children I've been multiple times before and usually I have a way better experience

Lieselotte Kramer-LaCour

Amit Sharma

We happend to be there on a wrong day as it was too hot and most of the animals we wanted to see were hiding in the shelter. Still we could see white tigers, asian tiger, lions and a small leopard. These 4 stars are maiy for the maintenance and cleaning of the zoo. It is a relatively small zoo and has a good number of animals and i would say that the zoo is planned in a way that it is difficult to miss any area. Signs for direction are placed very well. Best experience here was the train ride. It was the best so far we have taken in any zoo. Kids enjoyed the ride and zoo... forgot to mention they have a small garden with a couple of rides for the kids.

jessica melder

Needs some updating but its still a awesome place to bring the kiddos

Jacob J

Don't expect the San Diego Zoo, but this is a great medium size zoo. It is very accessible and good for kids. It has tigers, lions, all kinds of monkeys, and an alligator that looks like it ate an ice cream truck. The year round pass is worth it and can be used for discounts at other zoos. The zoo will keep your kids interested and moving for at least 2-3 hours.

Tressa Jantzen

We are here at the zoo now and we LOVE it!!!!!!!

Alanna Duke

This zoo is amazing! I’ve come multiple times with my kids for field trips and on our own and we love it! It has come a long way and they keep adding more beautiful animals that are very well cared for. The staff is great! My son is autistic and he loves it there. Thinking about having their birthday day there this year, we had it at chucky cheeses last year and it was too much for my son he cried the whole time. So I think the zoo will be a great place since he did so well at the field trip!

What about Us The Burnsides

My daughter broke her arm here and this park denied her medical bills...and didnt refund our money for that park that day...all she could say is momma i didnt get to ride the train...this park didnt ask how she was..or follow up...they didnt care for sure...but we enjoyed the animals...dont go in that park there its a dungeon for small kids...that elephant shakes..

B Flu

I visited the Alexandria Zoo recently and I enjoyed every moment. It is a nice, beautiful clean zoo. There are Beautiful white tigers, eagles, lions among many other animals. Very nice. I love how the staff walks around and comment on the animals, they are also very friendly. I had a good time. Thank you

Karen Burns

Lots of animals to see and fun for the whole family

Brandon Kupihea

Great family fun. Happy animals and a happy family!

Kasey Foster

The kids had so much fun!

Stephen Sweeney

Thanks for a great time, from the 4yo and myself!

Rosa Free

The most fun I've had in a long time.

Cassandra Coulter

One of my favorite places to go for enjoyment

jenny chap

Kids have so much fun going to the zoo.

Jackie Dantzler

epic arachnids

Always one of our favorite stops! Courteous staff, clean, nice animal enclosures. Beautiful animals! Thank you!

Stephanie Perry

The animals looked so well cared for. We enjoyed our afternoon exploring.

Allison Witherell-Messer

Always love the zoo. Only reason I am giving it 4 stars and not 5 us because the train conductor never takes a lunch the same time each visit it seems like. Half the time he/she is at lunch when we want to ride the train. Other than that we love the zoo

Christos Rodis

Perfect size zoo. Always clean and we truly enjoy ourselves every time.

Teresa Atwell

My grandchildren love going to the zoo in fact our whole family loves going to the zoo. And we love going to the many different activities they have at the zoo

Roman K

Wish I would of came here earlier maybe the animals would of been more alive and moving

Josetta Levels

Compared to my local zoo, this place was the Taj Mahal of wildlife parks. The staff were friendly and helpful, the exhibits were interesting and informational, and the train ride was neat. The cost of admission was a bargain considering the breadth of the zoo. For anyone visiting Alexandria, I would definitely recommend seeing this local attraction.

Daniel Carter

It’s not a bad place for a small town

Justin Knowlton

This is a great zoo for the size of the city it's in. They have a huge selection of animals for you too see and they seemed pretty well cared for. Some of the enclosures might be a little small, but you can tell the zoo is doing the best they can for their animals. I would definitely go again.

Jennifer Landers

Fun & clean! Employees are always nice & the path/walkway is large enough to push a stroller without being in the way of other visitors walking by. Definitely worth the hour drive a few times a year.

Laura Bartlett

Had a blast hanging out with my niece and her mom! We missed seeing the black panther but there were plenty of other big cats to marvel at.

Bailey Eubanks

Our daughter turned one and wanted to take her to the zoo. We got in paid for it and train rides didnt make it half way through before my husband's ex wife needed her son back. And we understood so he went to take my step son to meet her at academy which isnt far. I asked the woman that was at the front if my husband is going to be let back in explained the situation and how it was unexpected and our hands are tied but we already paid 20+ dollars and wanted to come back and join us for the rest of the zoo. She said no so once we leave we couldn't come back in she said normally you can leave 5 minutes and come back but not after 5 minutes. So my daughters birthday is ruined I wasn't going to just enjoy the zoo with her with him waiting in the car. It really sucks because she was enjoying herself. We could have taken that money and just did something else. So no longer will I go back just because they could have been understanding. 10 minutes wouldn't have killed them to let us back in. Shame on alexandria zoo.

Amanda S

The zoo is a great place to bring the family. The animals are really active during the spring time. There enclosures are kept clean and the animals all seem healthy. The staff will answer any questions you might have. The prices are good for the size of the zoo. Definately a good way to spend the day

Rita Newcomb

Really enjoyed the field trip to the zoo with my great grandson

Clara Simmons

So very much family friendly and a variety of animals

James Morse

This place has come a long way since my child hood. Absolutely one of the better zoological parks in Louisiana. If you enjoy zoos, the one in Alexandria will be worth your time.

Matthew Tomberlin

This zoo is a hidden gem. Took our young kids and it was a very interesting experience for the whole family. Very reasonable admission charge.

Kayla Harrell

We love our zoo! It's a fun, educational experience & a great walk! The adults in our party enjoy the learning centers & the kids love the train. The largest exhibits seem to be the multitude of bird species. We look forward to more large exotic animal exhibits.

Quito De La Madrid

It is a great place. Lots of animals and a train that goes all around the zoo. Very clean and beautiful. Lots to see and do.

ivvi LeL

If you turn your back to the tigers when they are in front of the glass, they will give you quite the scare, and a good picture.

Courtney Thames

I love it... First time I went there three yrs ago and now we go there every year!!! It's nice family funday together

Nora Torres

Clean zoo. Beautiful animals

Peachy's Life Journey

I always love the zoo. The lights and music were amazing this year. Will be renewing our FOTAZ membership and giving it as gifts.

SAVAGE1

The animals are nice and clean

Aaron Michiels

Our zoo is Awesome, it really is worth seeing and fun for the whole family!

Beth Stephenson

Nicely displayed animals. Visitors get close enough to study the creatures. Not huge but just right.

Debora Popp

Very nice, we had lots to see even though they had parts under construction.

Red Life

Hed a great time

Aaron Brown

Very cool experience. I have been there before but during the week the animals were alot more active. So many up close personal photos. One of the photos I had was of a bug carcus pretty cool. It's a good place for the kids and small enough for them to walk around. They also have strollers to rent as well if needed. Recommend going for sure.

Casandra Eubanks

It was nice. The zoo isn't so big that the kids get too tired while walking through it, but it's big enough that it has plenty of animals and exhibits to keep them and the adults entertained. The train ride was short but fun. The kids really enjoyed that as well.

Paula Steelman

My grandbaby loved it, will be going back.

Dwayne L

Beautiful zoo. Great exhibits. Shaded pathways. Way less expensive than what they could be charging. Definitely a great deal.

Amy Foster

Nice zoo long walking tough but fun

Darla Peavy

We went to see the Lights and to see Santa, but Santa left before time for the last train ride, so our babies missed seeing Santa. The line was so long when we first arrived, so we went to walk and see some of the animals and lights. When we went back by to see Santa, he had already left. We were sad. We rode the train sad. I guess Santa knows what the girls wanted for Christmas. I sure hope so, anyway!

Terresa Dipuma

Fantastic zoo! Well shaded so it's not too hot. Great habitat designs so it's easy to see the animals from multiple angles.

Ryan Harrison

Had a great time with the family. The kids loved the train ride and all the animals.

larry ogle

Great knowledgeable staff, family atmosphere, fun projects for the kids, all in all I wonderful experience from kids to adults!

Tobias Mayrand

Animals like bears and tigers are usually hidding..

Amanda Waters

Every time I go to visit my family I seem to always end up going there! It’s an awesome zoo I’m from Houston and prefer this zoo over Houston! It’s not expensive and kids have fun as I do too!!!

SNorrisArts Sherri Norris

My husband took our grandson & he thoroughly enjoyed it. It was the Christmas event, they said the lights were spectacular. They enjoyed the displays & the train ride. The zoo was clean & staff was pleasant. They enjoyed themselves.

Steven Semones

Very family friendly location with several interactive areas for kids to pet/touch animals. Very reasonably priced.

Sharon Sallinger

Great place for the kiddos!

David Sanders

Great place to see animal's fun place

Stephanie Miller

The zoo is amazing! It is good sized and peaceful! The animals are well cared for and it is a new favorite place!

Sadie Proveaux

The Alexandria Zoo is a favorite pass time in central Louisiana for animal lovers of all ages. Animals are often active. Regular activities are available.

SANDRA KENNEDY

We took a group for a birthday Zoo trip. We loved seeing all the animals. They look well cared for. Its peaceful. Its very clean. Many zoos seem very chaotic but this one was very nice. We were even able to get great pictures of the animals. My kids stopped zoo employees to ask questions and they were cheerful and provided knowledge to the kids. Very nice family fun! Very affordable for all.

leah dalme

Animals are well taken care of, beautiful scenery, clean habitats, workers are friendly

Glynnis Owens-Major

THE CROWN JEWEL OF ALEXANDRIA!!! Our zoo is the PERFECT place for a FIRST DATE (or 500th). It is equally perfect for children and adults to learn about conservation, animals of the world and the beauty of Louisiana's flora and fauna. I could visit here twice a month, from November until April as i am very hot natured, and I have no children! The zoo is peaceful yet exciting while being calming yet energetic. It is a place of happiness in an area that otherwise seems to be fighting against progression in every way. Especially those of old and new money charging much more to those who are earning much less.
