The world-famous San Diego Zoo is a great attraction in San
Diego all year long. Did you know that the experience is different depending on
when you visit? In addition to seasonally themed shows, animal experiences and
special guided tours are available for a special visit. Take a guided bus tour
for a 35-minute adventure through highlights of the zoo and the aerial tram for
views of the Zoo and Balboa Park as you travel over the trees from one end of
the Zoo to the other.
A new area, Wildlife Explorers Basecamp, was created to
encourage children to learn about nature and wildlife. There are areas for kids
to climb and run, go inside a beehive and water areas to cool down. The human
dryer will help the kiddos when they get a little too wet! Animal ambassadors
are out to greet and there are many interactive learning stations too.
The San Diego Zoo provides many places to eat to add to your
experience. Every area offers food inspired by the region. For example, at the
Asian Passage the Hua Mei Café offers Asian inspired food like a Pineapple
Teriyaki chicken sandwich. In the morning, near the entrance, visit the
Java hut for fresh doughnuts. For snacks during the day, stop at Rocks Box in
Africa Rocks and get walking nachos (Doritos or Fritos with Nacho Cheese). For Lunch,
The Sweet Shack has a Doughnut Burger, Thai Chili Wings or try the Italian
Truffle Wings or Cesear Salad at the Busy Bee Café. This is also a great place
to get local honey and they have Vegetarian options.
Feel like an adult beverage while you enjoy the Zoo? On the
weekends there are Cocktail Carts with specialty cocktails for the area. A favorite
is the Bees Knees, found by the Busy Bee Café. It may be the local honey that
makes it so delightful. On Front Street, you can stop in San Diego Craft Beer
and Margaritas and enjoy locally crafted beer and cocktails and a seat in the
shade.
The best prices for tickets will be found online at Tickets | San Diego Zoo. The Bristol San Diego is only a 10-minute drive from the
zoo. Call us or visit us at www.thebristolsandiego.com
