Bronx Zoo

Bronx, New York, United States

25 min drive from your starting point

Review

Enormous, historic and full of world-class exhibits. Pay-what-you-wish days exist; check before you go. Combine with a picnic and you have a classic New York family day that is not Manhattan.

Our recommendation. Wear walking shoes. The children's zoo is the toddler anchor.

  • Congo Gorilla Forest
  • Wild Asia Monorail
  • Children's Zoo
  • Bug carousel
