    I can definitely spend all day there. Very clean area and friendly staff. Tons of animals and usually pretty active. Unfortunately the giraffe feeding was closed when we went.

    The Jack-o-Lantern Spectacular is a lot of fun each year and themed very well. It is a unique experience with intricately carved pumpkin art, music and lights and is worth visiting if you are nearby. Parking is also free. I have recently moved to New England from the Delaware Valley/Philadelphia region and the autumn & Halloween festivities here are special, the native people of Rhode Island & Massachusetts know how to celebrate autumn.

    The zoo was fun, my children really enjoyed seeing all the animals. We also stayed for the pumpkin lighting (made sure we got back early, after getting something to eat). It was a really fun day.

    Pumpkin show was a fiasco. Horrible experience. Traffic was out of control, over an hour wait for last 1/2 mile to get in. No traffic help or organization, every man for themself, fights everywhere due to road rage. Kids working in parking area just using their cell phones, no help at all. Got in late of course Saturday night, had to rush through the walk through. $18.00 a head to fast walk through pumpkins, rip off. Many cars turned away frustrated and will have to try and fight for refunds. Ugh, never again.

    This zoo is awesome and not expensive! They have some of the "bigger, cooler animals" like elephants, zebras, giraffes. They have wildcats like cheetahs and snow leopards. They have otters and seals. They also have some more obscure animals like a red panda, flamingos, etc Admission is (I think) $15, but if you live within an hour or so, just get a seasonal pass We did and we've been numerous times and I love it every time! They also have a really nice kids' area and they are building more onto the zoo. I only wish they had a nicer gift shop. All in all 10/10 would recommend!!

    Great zoo but I mainly go there for the jack o lantern spectacular every fall! Being going for years and it doesn’t disappoint. This year we tried the new soaring eagle zip line it’s a short ride but it shows a great view of all of providence and more over the trees. Definitely a rush!

    Awesome zoo with lots of improvements. The play area is the best with a house treehouse and water area that looks like a stream. There is a fun farm/petting zoo. They are building a new tropical house. The elephants are so fun to watch and the zookeepers are helpful and informative.

    Really don't know why all The accolades. Took my sister, niece and her nine and six year old. Beautiful day in late August 2017. Other than the elephants and giraffes, where were other animals? On vacation? At another zoo? I felt the zoo was little more than a lot of path walking and a lot of grass and trees. The kids were so looking forward to the visit but quickly became quite bored. Fairly easy to get to but we all left disappointed.

    There are so many things to do here! You have tons of spots to walk to or visit. There is even a Del's vendor to get a cool lemonade from! The dogs will love the quantity of squirrels and chipmunks to watch. We spotted a crane near the water. This park is well maintained. It was quiet in some areas and noisy in others. It really does have something for everyone.

    Always clean. Docents and animal staff share knowledge generously. Many new/refurbished exhibits. New benches in abundance. Rentals now include electric "E-Z Scooters." Construction underway promises continuing new surprises! Great experience for the whole family or any part thereof!!

    Cute zoo. Small but enough to keep two toddlers entertained. Parking easy and free. Not very expensive. Splash pad was nice. Seal tank was fun, my 2 year old stood there for a good half hour just watching two seals going up and down!

    This zoo is fantastic! The staff are very helpful and knowledgeable of the animals. My friends and​ I had a blast exploring every inch of this place. It's a great outing for a family or a date. If you're in the area, give this place a look. 👍🏻

    Me and the wife visited on our honeymoon (we arrived when they open). The animals were mostly up and eating. Very clean minus the pigs which is to be expected. the elephants and giraffe were really cool to see.
    mid afternoon we left and it was starting to get very busy. I would recommend visiting when they first open.
