It's a huge Place very nice. Much different from how it used to be when I was a child. The only thing is you didn't really see any animals there was one animal to an enclosure and it was like you were just walking around and not getting to see every animal. For the money you're paying to go in to a zoo you want to see animals. The giraffes with the best part. And lunch was nice since they have a restaurant there inside the zoo and the merry-go-round was cute.

We went in the winter time and a few of the exhibits were closed and they don't have a winter ticket price. I thought it was a little bit of a rip off to have to pay full price when a few of the big exhibits were closed. Besides that the zoo is very nice and clean and you could tell the animals were well cared for. it was intimate because we were like the only people there. I would like to revisit in the summer

Went to a kids birthday party there. So much fun. I had Never even heard of the place before we got the invitation. The animals looked healthy and happy. We will definitely go back.

I have been going to the Turtle Back Zoo for years. I hadn't been in a couple of years and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality additions to the zoo attractions. There's so much to see and do. The day went by too quickly, and we didn't get a chance to see everything! A worthwhile and fun visit!

Only been to their light's festival that they do for the evening's during the Christmas season for the second year in a row the kids love it...even my never impressed 10 year old daughter that usually fiends everything boring! They have a really cool train ride with polar express music from the animated movie which was cool, the lights were very nice they also had a Disney princess theme with two women dressed as Disney princess posed for pictures with kids whicj my 7 year old loved and right next to them was a face painting display in the sting ray & Shark petting pool which is pretty awesome that the kid's & adults can't seem to get enough of! NOTE: The night event is Free it's a suggestion to donate canned goods for a food drive they have going on at the entrance so it's for a great cause!
