One of the best Zoo in India! It was wonderful to see so many giraffes and other wildlife species.

The ticket price is 100 rupees and it will take a considerable amount of time to walk around the whole zoo it's around 3+km.

One of the best zoos in India. I don’t think you can see giraffe in any other Indian zoo. Gorilla, Anaconda, different rhinoceroses etc. are some of the main attractions. There are so many other animals. We will plan next time to only visit the zoo and at least spend 3-4 hours there. Will give detailed update as soon as we visit.

This time we didn’t had much time hence ought for the chair car service

When it comes to most zoos in India, this one is clearly one of the best ones. They are a private zoo and have successfully bred many animals here including the giraffes, hippos, tigers, zebras, and many more.
The zoo is quite big and with little kids it’s best to hire the buggy. The tickets for the buggy can be booked online so you can save waiting time. On public holidays and weekends this place gets crowded so plan your visit accordingly.
If you have little kids carry water and food too s as the options are very limited. I saw only one place with food options.

One of the best and largest zoo in Karnataka. Worth the time. It takes around 3-4 hours to cover everything ! It's around 6-7 KM , i guess .
Well maintained, still in improving.
You can use electric vehicles which is available as soon as you enter the zoo after check-in.
100 Rs per head is worth.
No ticket required for kids below 5.
You can carry food items and all. Only that they'll put some sticker and take 10Rs per plastic deposit which will be returned while exiting only if you show the plastic/cover to make sure you didn't throw inside zoo.

It opens at 8.30 am . So go sooner to avoid rush.

There's enough paid parking opposite zoo.

Mysore Zoo is a popular tourist attraction in the city of Mysore, Karnataka. Spread over a vast area, the zoo is home to a diverse range of animals and offers visitors a unique opportunity to experience wildlife up close. Here is my review of Mysore Zoo.

The zoo is well-maintained, with clean pathways and well-manicured gardens. The enclosures are spacious, and the animals seem healthy and content. Visitors can observe a wide range of animals, including big cats, elephants, giraffes, zebras, and a variety of primates.

One of the highlights of the zoo is the bird sanctuary, which houses an impressive collection of birds from all over the world. Visitors can watch colorful parrots, exotic peafowls, majestic eagles, and many other species of birds in their natural habitat.

Another standout feature of Mysore Zoo is its conservation efforts. The zoo actively participates in breeding programs and conservation initiatives to protect endangered species. Visitors can witness the dedicated efforts of the zoo staff in preserving the animal population and learn about the importance of conservation.

The zoo also offers various amenities, such as food stalls, souvenir shops, and restrooms. The staff is courteous and helpful, providing information and assistance to visitors.

Overall, Mysore Zoo is an excellent destination for animal lovers and families. The zoo offers a unique and educational experience, allowing visitors to learn about various animal species and their habitats. With its beautiful surroundings and well-maintained facilities, Mysore Zoo is definitely worth a visit.
