This is by far the best zoo that I have ever been to. All of the animals were out and very interesting! I could’ve spent so much more time in this zoo but unfortunately I didn’t go early enough! The gorillas were myFavorite... they posed for the camera!!!! There were so many good animals and they were all out!!!! Don’t you hate when you go to the zoo and most of the animals are hiding? Not this place! Oh yea... the penguins were cool too! I’ve never seen a baby penguin (other than on Hapt Feet) Those baby penguins are adorable!
Great!!! But don’t go in winter if you want to see all the African or warm weather animals indoors
Most fantastic Zoo! An absolute must for all ages. The displays are apropriarem and the animals are well cared for. The personnel is most helpful and quite knowledgeable! Pack a lunch or eat at the restaurant, their hamburgers and fries are delicious! Have fun!
Awesome zoo. Animals were in good condition and seemed happy. Very informative if you have an interest in animals other than humans. The animals were well trained to keep themselves in view. Madagascar dark room was my favorite
Great place will be better as it gets warmer also has a fair amount of construction. Seems like animals were getting moved around. B uh t a great place to spend the day still
We love the zoo!! My kids would live here if it was possible. My daughter loves the giraffes and my son is in love with the aquarium. So much to see even if you get a pass and go once a week!Seriously, get the pass, its worth it!!
Nice place but do not go there in winter!
When we were stationed in Nebraska we lived at the zoo!What an amazing place! Even in the winter you had somewhere to go.
First zoo i ever went to.This will be innour familys heart forever!
This is the secret to a better zoo experience. The south gate is usually packed. A bit of a walk to the main exhibits from this entry, but theres still plenty to see nearby.
Omahas Henry Doorly Zoo is #1 in the World, Planet Earth for our Human Inhabitants to enjoy
This zoo is our families favorite since forever. There is so much to do and all of the staff are wonderful. Will continue to come back for a long time.
Clean and well maintained zoo! Outside food is allowed here.
Grandkids really enjoyed themselves. We will come again.
Really nice and educational.
The zoo is the best place to take my girls. The aquarium and the jungle are amazing!
A large area with a good variety of animals. I was surprised by the presentation, it felt authentic. Well worth the 3 hours I spent there.
Really great zoo overall. I’m giving four stars instead of five because when we called ahead of our visit we were told most of the animals would be out but several were still in for the winter. The indoor jungle was super cool and the aquarium was great too! Definitely will need to go back in the summer and see the new additions that are under construction.
North entrance.great for a quick trip to the kids area and splash park. Note that this you cannot exit here after the zoo officially closes!
I had a great time, and love to see all the animals.
Parking is much easier at this entrance. And its downhill on the way out. Great for grandparents.
Very large zoo, many animals to see indoors if its cold or rainy outside. Price is reasonable for how much there is too see.
We love the zoo and Seems like there is a new addition every year. The spray park is one of our favorites! And there is OTTERS
Always love visiting the zoo
We love this place!! You need more than one day which is why I recommend a member ship.
The Omaha zoo didnt fail to impress. It was pretty cold the day we went but there was SO much to see indoors that it didnt matter. We were able to rent a wagon for $13 for the day and we could take it through any if the indoor buildings.
Awesome zoo my kids and grandkids loved it so did I
A great zoo and great way to spend a day.
It is the best zoo in the world there is no other zoo like it
Incredible and delightful day of enjoyment! Adventurous and informative experience about the wonders of so many amazing animals and their habitats.
Great place to take kids or any age! Dont plan on seeing it all in 1 day!!!!
I had a blast at the zoo!!!
Fantastic zoo with lots of indoor areas.
It was an amazing time my lovely and I just had a blast will be coming back again.
World class! Exhibits awesome. Environment gets a little wild. Wear your walking shoes. Prepare to gain pleasure, education, and exercise. Always something new or changing.
I like the convenience it adds top getting in the park.
Best zoo Ive ever been to!
Great vibes. Clean .lots of animals
Good place to visit with family and friends.. I would say it is huge.. it took two days to complete.. also I would suggest to buy the family one year pass .. it helped us a lot .. we have visited every once in each session.. when ever my parents or parents in law visit us.. one pass to cover all .. it has all animals .. I like the polar bear personally .. enjoy the trip ..
Wonderful zoo experience. Super place for children. We love the parakeet avairy, the stingray beach, and the large avairy. Plus the splash pad is a perfect stop for kids and for adults to rest.
Amazing zoo! Large enclosures; diversity of animals; beautiful aquarium
I have been an annual member for years.
The cost of admission is 21.95 and it rained most of the day. Fortunately they have over 7 acres of indoor displays. I particularly enjoyed the aquarium with sharks, penguins, and sea turtles among the many sea creatures on display. This zoo has something for everyone from lions to apes and from snakes to insects.
Very easy to get through.
Needs to be open when there is literally like nowhere to park in all of the alphabetical lanes its a long walk to the South main when you can only find a spot clear down to the north gate and you have little ones and before we get to the main gate little ones and adults are exhausted before getting to the south gate or before making into the zoo
Im not a good one to look at for reviews on a zoo. Im one who feels bad for the animals for not being in their true environment. This is my first time here with my family. But if you are looking for a wonderful place to take your kids to to see the worlds wild life, then Omaha Zoo is the place to go. They have everything that you can imagine. The Gorillas helped excite everyone by slapping the glass, the aquarium had every water reptile that you could think of. Came face to face or nose to nose with a Kamen with only the glass separating us. That was humbling to me. There is so much more I could say, but dont want to disappoint those of you looking for the excitement. :) I highly recommend that you visit. Pay the yearly family fee, it is cheaper than the day tickets in the long run!
This is just an entrance. No starts really needed.
Spectacular zoo! A must see if on vacation in the area. Skip the train ride though, really not worth the price. Everything else is well worth the admission price.
This is a wonderful zoo. Busy on weekends
A fantastic experience... there were a few exhibits closed or u der constriction... as a first timer we more than enjoyed ourselves...
I drove 300 miles to see the zoo that everyone was talking about. They should have mentioned they have construction project until August 19/2018. I didn’t see half the place because of this. But I paid full price entry fees. Plus, I needed a binocular to see the animals. It was a failure.
Excelent, beatiful
Love my seabunny and penguin.
LOVE now that they have their new childrens adventure trails open and the splash park is fabulous in the summer!
This is Omahas crowning jewel. Definitely worth a visit if youre in town. Its a huge zoo, so plan on spending at least a couple hours here if you want to see everything.
Best zoo in the US!
Best zoo ever
Love seeing the animals
Best zoo in the nation
Best zoo Ive ever been too. Way better than San Diego!
Its a lot of hype. Some think its the best zoo in the world and others not so much. My personal opinion is that it has a long way to go. I dont know how they are going to add anything new without any land around the zoo to build with. This just might be the peak time for this zoo. Its ok every once in a new moon but I wouldnt purchase a membership.
Is this place open now?
Great place to take the family.
Had a ton of fun - and wheelchair availability and disability access really helped me enjoy the zoo during an MS flare.
Easily the best Zoo in the US. Drove from Iowa with Mom and my buddy Mirza and family. Spent half a day here. Lots of birds and animals to see at close range. I liked the Macaws, Parakeets, Tigers and Monkeys. The reptiles appear to be dozing but they are alert. Burmese Python is beautifull. The Lion was behind a oneway glass and when we stood there closeby it let a full throated roar. I then knew why some animals freeze when the Lion roars. I always walk away from zoos with mixed feelings, guilty for going back to a zoo after making up my mind on the last visit and sad about animals being caged up for life. I get some solace that the cages nowadays are made to look natural without too many bars and gates. They are well cared usually, but still...I should never go to zoos.
Very nice had fun with the kiddos .Thank you Kawasaki and all that made it possible
Everything was closed but they still took my hard-earned money
Nice friendly relaxing place
Love the North entrance to the zoo! it is not far from the kids adventure area and typically less crowded to get in!
Love the zoo but it’s ALLWAYS crowded .. get a year pass so u can go on the off days .. also u can stay the night at the zoo !! I want to do it will update when I get prices..
The best zoo I have ever been to!
Its just an entrance. But, unlike years ago, this entrance is actually really close to some of the best new exhibits.
If I lived in Omaha, I would buy a season pass. Great zoo!
The zoo will make a wonderful experience for you. The problem is the lack of sign for finding your way.
Well worth the price of admission! Great way to spend a day.
Omahas Zoo north entrance has been rebuilt and has reopened. The lines are always shorter at this gate. You can buy your tickets here and save time vs. the main gate. The North parking lot is just across the street. Do your walking in the zoo, not in the parking lot.
You may have to walk a a long while but besides that it awesome there were so many thing to explore
Best ever
Entrance is right next to the childrens adventure land. Perfect for parking to take kids or grandkids to play in this wonderful play area!!
Really good
Best vacation ever, the Omaha Zoo is a great place to visit
This entrance isnt as packed as the main entrance, enters near the kids zone, which is the coolest kids playground Ive ever seen. Awesome place.
Amazing zoo and great place for the family couple of a by ur self trip

Todays visit was just ok for me. Its been a long time since I have visited this Zoo maybe by summer the top part of the Jungle will be open.
