Pro tip, become an annual member if you're local, you can see different parts of the zoos on different days without rushing. Usually 2 trips and you're already saving money plus it goes towards a great cause :)

Don’t come on holidays Take a map even if you prefer the APP BUT the best help comes from the employees in red shirts who are there to help you get where you want to go without getting lost. Do bus tour as soon as you arrive :) your experience will be outstanding if you start here! Great summary of Bade Camp here :)

If you had to choose between the San Diego Zoo & Safari Park, which would you choose?? And I know it's unlikely, but could you possibly do both in one day??

@@heatherhouskeeper1594 very unlikely they are about 35 minutes away from each other and you would be rushing your day at each park. I prefer the zoo over the safari park.

Thanks for the zoo tour. We went once when the kids were very young. They are now older teens. Do you think they would prefer this or Seaworld? I think probably Seaworld for the rides. What is traffic like on a Sunday coming from Disneyland to San Diego?
@SoCalDisneyDad
@SoCalDisneyDad Жыл бұрын
SeaWorld definitely has some good rides, but as more time goes on, it feels more and more run down. We are thinking about not renewing our SeaWorld passes next year. It really depends on whether they enjoy Zoos or not. If so, then go to the Zoo. It’s one of the best in the nation. Leave early, traffic isn’t bad in the morning. If you try driving down around Noon, it’ll be crazy backed up. Shouldn’t have too much trouble going North again. But there’s always major traffic Southbound due to a poor junction between CA 78 and I 5. If you get to the Zoo shortly after park opening, driving down around 8 AM shouldn’t be an issue.

Do u still recommend the bus tour if you have stroller? Is there a space for the stroller inside the bus?
@SoCalDisneyDad
@SoCalDisneyDad 4 ай бұрын
No, you can’t take strollers on the bus tour. There is stroller parking at the entrance to the tour where you can collect your stroller after you get off. It picks you up and drops you off at roughly the same place. And as I responded in the other comment, the bus tour is a ride you stay on for the whole thing. So you wouldn’t be getting off halfway through and need your stroller.

Anybody who lives in San Diego and want new Dreamworks animal led films with animals they see at San Diego Zoo, go apply for Dreamworks Animation Studio and convince them to make a subsidiary that will just produce animal led films and it will include previous films like Antz, Chicken Run, Spirit films, Shark Tale, Madagascar franchise films, Over the Hedge, Flushed Away, Bee Movie, Kung Fu Panda films, Turbo, and Bad Guys.

Here are films that should happen in the future: A film in West Africa that will include characters based on a Chimpanzee and a Hippopotamus. A Madagascar lemur solo film with a nice portrayed character based on a Fossa. A film in the Pacific Region with a Galapagos Tortoise character. Kung Fu Panda 5 with Po just serving as spiritual leader and teacher with Bao as an adolescent being the next Kung Fu Panda, then a great niece of Shifu, then a nice relative of Tai Lung and a Takin master. A film in East Africa with a female giraffe character. A film in Australia with a Koala character. A film in Maritime Southeast Asia with a character based on a Komodo Dragon. A Northeast Africa film with a lion as a spiritual wanderer. A film in Central Africa with an Okapi character. A film in the Arctic with a Polar Bear character. A film in Scandinavia with a Reindeer. A film in the Indian Subcontinent with a male Tiger.

Do you go hop off and on the bus? Or u just stay inside the bus the whole time?
@SoCalDisneyDad
@SoCalDisneyDad 4 ай бұрын
There are two busses. The one at the front of the park is a Bus Tour. You stay on for roughly 45 minutes. The other is called the Kangaroo bus, and that takes you to several stops around the Zoo. That one is hop on/hop off.

From my research, options are limited, but almost every location has a gluten free menu. You’ll have to ask for it separately. It’s not posted on their main boards.
