Not Horrible, But Underwhelming
3 Star Rating: Average

We took our two preschoolers over Memorial Day Weekend. The crowds weren't horrible, but getting good views of the animals was difficult at times. We found the park somewhat difficult to navigate, and poor signage and the lack of available staff didn't help. The natural habitats made it tough to see the animals, and the park really did look run down. To me, the highlights of the zoo were the gorillas and the reptile displays. Being an Atlanta native, I found my first trip back to the zoo in over 30 years to be disappointing.

Pros: Ticket Prices

Cons: Animal Views, Staffing
