Florida’s oldest zoological garden, Zoo Miami is home to over 2,000 animals across more than 100 exhibits. An air-conditioned monorail takes a loop around the zoo and is a comfortable and convenient way to get around the site, providing an aerial view of some exhibits. There are four main areas of the zoo: Asia, Africa, Amazon and beyond, and Australia. Those who want to experience animals up close can brush an Indian rhinoceros or feed a giraffe for an additional fee. For more information about the zoo and its animals, take a narrated tram ride or guided tour. For Zoo Miami and beyond, use our Miami road trip planning site to get the most from your Miami vacation.

The zoo was awesome. Most of the animals were out and doing things. We rented the pedal cart. It was easier than walking around the whole zoo, but it was expensive. Fun time.

This may only be our second time visiting this zoo but we absolutely love it here! We're from Houston, TX and Zoo Miami is so much better! It's huge, make sure to wear good shoes. Tons of spots for the kids to stop and play/rest plus play in the water. We love all the plant life as well. Absolutely a gorgeous zoo! We spent about 4 hours here and enjoyed every minute of it

We’ve been here five times and we absolutely love this amazing zoo. Such a fun place to visit. Beautiful vegetation, and parking is free of charge. Food is excellent quality and mobile ordering is offered. Lots to see. Annual pass is a good opportunity to enjoy the zoo year around – I just bought one. All areas are well-preserved with energetic animals on exhibit and information about their habitats and what is being done to protect them. Great place for anyone at any age, recommended! 🙌
