It's clean, the animals are well taken care of and beautiful. We liked the fact that the vegetation has signs so non-native Floridians know what it is. There are benches everywhere with lots of shade so even on a hot day, you can relax and enjoy your surroundings. Our grandchildren (13 & 14) love it as they can get pictures... More

My husband and I were on vacation in Naples and spent an entire day at the zoo. The Meet the Zookeeper shows were excellent, so informative and a great way to see the animals more up close. The two animal shows & primate expedition cruise were also educational and enjoyable. All in all, this zoo, although not very large, is... More

I've been to Zoos all over the world... wasn't expecting much from the Naples Zoo... but they really have a nice place. Not too big, but some really nice exhibits and exotic animals. Two gorgeous Tigers and a new Cheetah habitat are the real gems here.

Not very big, but it was nice. But don't visit on the first Saturday of the month as it is free for Collier county residents and it was packed the day we went.

It is a very pleasant zoo to walk around and there is a reasonable selection of animals from all parts of the world. The zoo's strength was the 'shows' put on by the keepers. They were delivered in a light hearted humorous manner but were very interesting and informative. Included in the ticket price was a cruise around islands where... More

The woman who sold us our tickets was over the top amazing. We arrived late in the afternoon and she told us exactly how to scamper from one show to the boat ride and the tiger feeding so we could get it all in. The giraffe feeding was the highlight if my month. (Ok-I am easily amused). I will be... More

I'm hoping to get there again next winter. In my experience, small zoos are often more fun, not to mention less challenging than huge ones. This one is especially good: clean, plenty to do, friendly staff, etc. I loved the one animal talk we attended; it was about poisonous reptiles, I admit not my favorite subject, but the keepers were...

The zoo is small compared to some we have been to in the past but it was fun. We went on a free day for collier county residents which was a mistake. It was way to crowded and quite annoying for us as we speak only English! We will go on a non free day when we return. As far... More

I took my 7 year old son here for the day and he really enjoyed it! It's a smaller zoo then we are used to but it was very clean and well taken care of. There is Also a boat ride that takes you out to see the islands where the monkeys live! It was a little pricey to get... More
