"This is one of the best Zoos in the country in my opinion. We have the annual pass (well worth it) and go about twice a month. They’re always adding new activities to keep it interesting. Also and my favorite part is the animals are very happy and well cared for!"
"I've been going to the Brevard Zoo since I was a kid, and it's just gotten better and better. I never had a bad experience here, and it's such a fun way to spend any day of the week with your family! The train ride was a little more brief than I remember it, and I would recommend doing other things instead. I highly recommend the bird feeding, but you have to get there early. The birds get full really fast. The part with the snakes is another one of my favorite parts. The splash pad and playground are great for little kids. And if you wanted to do something a little extra, I would suggest zip lining at Treetop Trek, which I'm pretty sure is accessible from the inside of the zoo now. The first time I went I entered from the parking lot, but it might depend on the specific zipline you're doing. Annual passes are also totally worth it if you want to come a lot. You should definitely check this place out if you want some fun!"
"What a beautiful zoo! The animals appear to be very well cared for and I love how their enclosures allow them to run overhead. They have so much space, and then they are given food in a way that mimics how they would hunt for it in the wild. You should go in the early morning when they’re feeding the animals. (Although for very small children, it may be a bit too real). Feeding the giraffes and lorakeets were the highlights."
"My family (all adults) were sooooo impressed with the Brevard Zoo. We went on a very hot day in June. There is lots of shade in some of the exhibits and in the eating area. The zoo has a conservation focus and the exhibits seem natural and designed to give each animal the type of environment it needs for optimum health and happiness. Animals are eating natural food (fruits and veggies) and are obviously well fed and taken care of. The staff members are pleasant and helpful. There are lots of places to sit and rest. The food is also excellent and there are good vegetarian options. This was a great experience, even on a very hot day."
