| - While I am a fan of the zoo, I'm not a fan of how expensive it has gotten! It is now $20/adult and $10/child from 3-12 years old. This does NOT include the stingray exhibit, carousel, or safari train which are extra. There is a "premium" admission which is $23/adult and $13/child which isn't advertised on the website but does include the stingrays, carousel, or safari train. Even with the premium pricing, the camel ride, giraffe encounter, are all additional charges. The food is way over priced.
That having been said, the zoo itself is beautiful. It's very clean with friendly staff and nice, broad based exhibits. The petting zoo is very nicely done and it's always a good visit. Just be prepared to spend a pretty penny on a visit to the Phoenix Zoo.
So as much as I'd like to give it more stars, the Phoenix Zoo is pricing itself out of the market with the nickel diming that it's doing to its guests.
