If you need a place to take your out of town guest for the day, then Zoo Atlanta is the place to go. The fact that it's small compared to other zoos in Miami or Detroit makes it more enjoyable because of the closeness to the animal exhibits. The Gorillas are very entertaining and the antics of the Elephants can keep you lingering at the exhibit. The staff is not as visible as they should be, but when needed they are very helpful & informative. If you see nothing else you must visit the Panda exhibit, but remember to do it early, between 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM when they feed-you won't be disappointed. I would recommend that you bring some snacks or food as the in park food is pricey. For an enjoyable day out with the family, out of town guests or just by yourself, treat yourself and them to Zoo Atlanta.

Pros: Clean and large exhibits,Excellent petting zoo,

Cons: Pricey tickets and Food
