Make a return quest in the fall when Asia Quest's secon phase opens and you'll come face to face with giant fruit bats, lanurs, cranes and muntjac.

Reviews for Columbus Zoo and Aquarium
RatingCommentsDemographicsCreated
*****I have been to several zoos in my lifetime but I can honestly say that the Columbus Zoo is by far the greatest!Female under 2505-10-06
*****My earliest recollection was of going to the Zoo. My sister and I were among the first visitors to the Zoo our pictures were taken on the backs of the concrete animals at the entrance.That was 65 years ago. Female older than 5512-03-07
*****Columbus Zoo is a lot better than Cincinnati Zoo. The columbus Zoo is a lot more cleaner and there is not as many hills to climb, I would go to Columbus Zoo 10 out of 10 times before I would go to Cincinnati.Female between 26 and 5507-26-08
