Definitely pay for the lemur experience that comes with the petting zoo. Also there is free ax throwing.
The aquarium has great white sharks, a multitude of fish, an anaconda, and much more.
This was such a fun day and we easily spent several hours here. Come early to avoid the crowds.

I remember that I went to visit the Michin Aquarium I had an incredible experience, from the moment you enter, you begin to see all the variety of aquatic and terrestrial animals, the aviary and even a farm. The place has large outdoor spaces and rest areas with the option to buy food. It´s an incredible place, you can feed the birds, mini pig, rabbits, guinea pigs and turtles, there is even interaction with sharks and feed the stingray.
The Michin Aquarium is just as popular as spending a weekend at the beach.

Such a great zoo!!! The animals are in well-kept and big arrangements and seem cared for. Lots of variety of animals!
Go right when they open, go on a weekday, and go right to the safari for a exclusive experience!

We had a very short visit so we bought the basic package. We bought the train a sky tram tickets separately. Not sure if it would make sense to buy the diamond package but that price jump is crazy. Either way the zoo is HUGE. Definitely need a whole day to walk through it all. We got to feed the baby deers. So cute! There were plenty of bathrooms and trash cans around. Very clean. Definitely would come back.
Great time at the Zoo in Guadalajara. It was about $120 pesos for adults for admission. You can buy additional "attractions" once you're inside vs. buying the pass that includes everything before you enter. Fun for kids and family!
Just amazing! It's a great place to go as a family, specially if you have kids, the basic entrance of 249 pesos gives you all the acuarium exhibits, plus goat feeding and the outside peting zoo (interaction with other animals have an extra cost), as well as the kids playground.
