The Bronx Zoo is the largest urban zoo in the world. It's like the Louvre of Zoos -it could take several visits to see it all! Whether you have kids or just like jungle animals (kevin) -the zoo is a great way to spend an afternoon and we often have guests asking about them. The set up of the viewing is exceptional -right over on the rock are lions sunning. Walking tall right next to you, giraffes and the indoor exhibits are amazing as well -obviously the baboon, ape exhibit being exceptional.
The Central Park Zoo is a faaaaar second. You could finish the entire thing in 20 mins, starting with the seals, then the penguins (lots to see but the enclosed viewing area is cramped and really hot. There's like one polar bear who you're lucky to catch and the red pandas are clandestine and you're lucky to catch a glimpse of their red hair. The bird section is well done and pretty large.Both places have amazing zoo shops that are ridiculously overpriced but you actually can't leave without buying some stuffed animal replica of your favorite animal of the day.If the guests are willing to take the extended trip the Bronx Zoo is much more of a sight to see. The Central Park Zoo is an extremely edited zoo suitable for those who are mainly headed to the park and want something quick to entertian the kids.
