Plan on walking several miles and visiting all the exhibits at the zoo. If this sounds too much, take a 40-minute guided bus tour to see most of the park. The San Diego Zoo offers the Skyfari, an overhead gondola lift for those unafraid of heights.

The San Diego Zoo spans over 100 acres and offers express buses with multiple stops for convenient transportation.

There are plenty of exciting things to do and see at the zoo, including the Elephant Odyssey. It is a 7-acre habitat designed for the zoo’s eight elephants, mainly located outdoors. The elephant’s habitat covers 2.5 acres and is divided into three yards, which can be opened to create one large yard for the entire herd to explore.

Monkey Trails features an elevated walkway allowing visitors to see tree-climbing animals up close. The exhibit also boasts diverse plants, including a ficus tree, cycads, and a colorful bog garden.

The Panda Research Station is one of the most popular attractions in the zoo. Visitors can view this rare animal species and experience interactive exhibits at the Giant Panda Discovery Center. These exhibits allow visitors to smell and hear what the animals are like up close.

The Polar Bear Plunge is a zoo section that showcases over 30 species of animals from the Arctic region. The main attractions of this area are the polar bears, Kalluk, and Chinook. Visitors can walk down the bear path to observe these magnificent creatures and even catch a glimpse of them swimming in the underwater viewing area.

Located in the heart of the African forest, the Ituri exhibit is home to various species, such as Allen’s Swamp Monkey, spotted-necked otters, and giant forest buffalo.
