ABQ BioPark Zoo

"We had a really nice time at the ABQ BioPark Zoo. It was fun for the kids and very easy to enjoy at a relaxed pace. One of the highlights for us was the polar bear enclosure, it was really impressive and well done. The animals all seemed well cared for, and the zoo itself was clean and easy to navigate. The cost was also very reasonable (for out of state guests), especially when you do the combo tickets with the aquarium, which made it feel like a great value overall. Definitely worth visiting if you’re in the area, especially with kids. My son also loved learning about the chimpanzee with only one arm and although it is sad that they only have one arm is was a great learning opportunity to teach him that sometimes animals and people look different and its ok!"

"I absolutely loved my visit to the ABQ BioPark! The highlight was the adorable new baby hippo — what an incredible addition. It was so beautiful to walk around the park; everything felt peaceful and well cared for. The giraffes and zebras were amazing to watch, and the staff members were friendly and helpful. The pathways were clean, shaded, and easy to navigate, making it a really enjoyable walk. I highly recommend getting a membership — it’s very practical and includes access to all areas of the BioPark, including the Zoo, Aquarium, and Botanic Garden. It’s such a great deal, especially if you plan to visit more than once or bring family and friends. This is a wonderful place for families, couples, or anyone who enjoys animals and nature. I can’t wait to come back soon to see how the baby hippo grows!"

"I’ve never seen a zoo with peacocks just openly walking around! There’s also a spot where you can buy food and feed some animals. The buildings are kept very cool and the animals appear to be well taken care of. A lot of information is displayed about ongoing zoo events and the animals of course."

"For visiting on a cold winter day, we had a good experience. Because some of the park was under renovation and some animals were off display to be warmer indoors, ticket prices were heavily reduced. But for only $8 per person we enjoyed seeing all we did. Shoutout to the cockatoo who made our day."

"The young lady at the entrance was really kind and treated me like someone special. Being a member of RHZ she got me into both the zoo and the aquarium for half price. If you're going to be going to the zoo I'd highly recommend getting the package deal of the zoo and aquarium for a really reduced price. They are only two miles apart but we'll worth going to both. As for the zoo nice and clean animals look healthy and they are doing some remodeling to make it even better."
