San Diego Safari Zoo is always a great time. I enjoyed seeing all the animals we arrived at a great time 1 hour after opening, I recommend that time slot its not so busy and you get to experience almost all the animals come out the only one we did not get to enjoy were the elephants we did find out that it was relocated to another part of the park.

Lots to see. So many helpful volunteers around the park with so much information about the animals and how to navigate the park

Very cool and very big. Hard to finish on one day. Some animals were a no show. Did not like how you had to wait in line and have a ticket to see the Pandas. And very easy to get lost. Maps could be better.

This was a wonderful family getaway. Our 3 adult children and our grandson thoroughly enjoyed both parks. There was plenty to see and small crowds allowed for us to see everything. The volunteers at the safari park were super helpful and friendly. We would go back again.

The zoo was worth it but safari was a bit disappointing. The access after buying this ticket was very easy.

We had a fantastic day! We started with the bus tour of the park which was a nice overview and gave us ideas of how to prioritize our day. Get there early and pace yourself. It’s a humongous zoo. A lot of ground to cove (hilly terrain - not very flat). We got there around noon and left around 6 pm. We did 12,000 + steps.

The zoo was beautiful and the staff and volunteers were friendly and informative. The animals are well cared for and it’s obvious that the goal for this place is conservation.

So beautiful to walk around and see animals we rarely get to see. The park has so many beautiful trees and flowers. The park is well staffed and there are restrooms and water stations available. The staff is very friendly

Will be crowded and parking is $20. Environment is well designed to see all the animals. Plenty of places to rest and get food

Such a well maintained zoo and so many knowledgeable guides! I would highly recommend although the VIP tours were quite pricey. It was worth it to see so many animals in their natural habitat!
