Pros: All natural habitats, lots of animals, and renovations! Cons: Summer heat!
The Audubon Zoo was always my favorite zoo to visit as a child. We lived approximately 70 miles from New Orleans but always made sure we visited the zoo each summer. This was quite an event since all the cousins came along!
Pros: Even better than the real thing. Cons: Who's gonna ride your wild horses?
Whenever I’m putting together a vacation, my itinerary – for there is an itinerary, and a comprehensive one, too – includes must-do activities that I really want to check out, plus some alternates or fill-ins, in case plans go awry or we have ...
Pros: Animal Friendly habitats, lots of view space Cons: The smell naturally.
As a native New Orleanian, I just had to visit our zoo. I remember going when I was younger and not being very impressed with the sights. I was impressed with the animals of course, as most children are. But to tell you the truth, I only have vague...
Pros: the best zoo I've been to, very family friendly Cons: can be too hot to enjoy it in summer
Even though we live 3 hours away, I've been to the Audubon Zoo at least a dozen times. I never get tired of it. If your zoo experience has been mostly with smaller city zoos, you'll be amazed at the one in New Orleans.
Pros: You can bring your own wagon and ice chest in to the zoo. Many people had 2 wagons 1 for kids and other for the ice chest. Cost to rent 1 of the zoos wagon is $10.00 Cons: Try not to go when it is 95 or higher outside. Most of the lions and tigers will not be as active in the heat
We choose the New Orleans zoo because of the butterfly exhibit and white alligators. They have over 1500 species. The kids had the best time playing in the water sprinklers that they have throughout the zoo. It was 108 when we went so we were pretty...
Pros: great zoo all around Cons: too many gift shops, parking could be improved
The New Orleans Zoo is located in uptown New Orleans right by the Garden District. Just getting there is a beautiful drive. Its only a preview of whats to come. Once inside you'll see the usual zoo animals but in a wonderful park like setting. ...
Pros: lots of exhibits, animals, activities, and fun Cons: There's so much to do and so little time!
I live right across from the zoo at Tulane University and about twice a year we go to the zoo, whether it be with friends from home who we're showing around or for fun on our own. Audubon Zoo is huge, its right on the Mississippi and right across from...
Pros: wonderful for children and adults Cons: none
My husband and I took our two children to Audubon Zoological Gardens in New Orleans so they could experience the joy of seeing other animals other than the few wildlife that live around our home. We went during the month of July and it was very hot but...
Pros: Overall good place Cons: going late evening you don't see a lot of the animals
At age 27 this was my first zoo experience and on the whole I enjoyed it. With out a doubt I was the only redneck there. How do I know that you ask? Well I had worn new shoes and it hurt so bad I had to take them off. I was the ONLY bare footed person...
Pros: AWESOME zoo! Lots of animals, roman candy, elephant rides Cons: weather can sometimes be too hot a humid to go
The Audobon Zoo holds a special place in my heart. I used to go there every weekend when I was a child with my father. Every Saturday. This was back in the day when playgrounds still had "character" and were made of wood, not plastic....
Pros: Beautiful setting great animals Cons: it can get very hot in the summer
I grew up in New Orleans and have been to this zoo a lot. When friends ask what the can do with the kids in New Orleans I always say take the streetcar to the zoo and spend the day. The swamp area is a microcosim of Cajun life and the food served there...
Pros: Beautiful zoo, lots of shade, good price. Cons: A little hard to find.
I lived in New Orleans for 10 years, and moved back to Maine in 2001. I go back to visit yearly, and was so pleased to see that the Audubon Zoo survived hurricane Katrina.It is one of the best zoos I've ever visited. It is well laid out, has lots of ...
