A trip to the zoo makes any day special; but a day spent at the amazing Toronto Zoo is one you will never forget. One of the largest zoos in the world, there are more than 5000 animals representing just over 450 species at the Toronto Zoo.

Four large tropical indoor pavilions and several smaller indoor viewing areas, plus numerous outdoor exhibits compose 710 acres which can be explored on walking trails. The climate-controlled pavilions, such as the African pavilion, give you a first-hand look at animals and vegetation unique to that part of the world.

An ‘Around the World’ tour takes approximately 3 hours and includes the Africa, Americas, Australasia, and Indo-Malayan pavilions. The African Savanna is a dynamic reproduction of beautiful animals and rugged geographic landscapes. In the summertime the Zoomobile can take you through the outdoor exhibit area, if you prefer not to use the walking trails. If you make reservations ahead, you can sleep overnight in the Bush Camp! The Zoo is a 30-minute drive east from downtown.
