So you wanna waltz with some wildlife, huh? How much will it cost to see the lions and tigers (and bears...oh my!) at the LA Zoo?
Let's face it, the zoo isn't exactly a place where you'd expect to break the bank. You're not bidding on a baby giraffe at a high-stakes auction (although, wouldn't that be a story for the grandkids?). But with all the exciting creatures to see, from the majestic elephants to the, ahem, slightly less majestic pigeons (hey, they gotta eat too!), you might be wondering how much you need to loosen your purse strings for a wild day out.
Fear not, intrepid zoo adventurer! Here's the lowdown on LA Zoo pricing:
The General Admission Breakdown:
- Adults (13-61): You'll be shelling out $22 to get up close and personal with the animal kingdom. Think of it as an investment in knowledge (and maybe a killer selfie with a panda).
- Seniors (62+): The zoo appreciates your wisdom, offering a discounted rate of $19**. Those extra years mean extra time to spend appreciating the wonder of nature, right?
- Children (2-12): The future zoologists get a special price of $17. Spark their love for all things wild at a price that won't leave you feeling like you just wrestled a lion (though that would be a heck of a story).
- Infants (0-23 months): These tiny zoo explorers get in FREE. Because, let's be honest, they're probably more interested in chasing pigeons than staring at penguins (at least for now).
Hold on, there's more! Like any good safari, there are some exciting detours you can take:
- L.A. Zoo + Aquarium of the Pacific Combo Ticket: Craving a double dose of aquatic and terrestrial adventures? This combo ticket gets you into both the zoo and the Aquarium of the Pacific for $58 (adult) or $41 (child). Basically, you get to see everything with fins, fur, and feathers!
So, there you have it! The LA Zoo offers a variety of pricing options to fit your budget and your wild side. Now you can plan your zoo adventure without worrying about breaking the bank (unless you decide to buy one of those ridiculously cute stuffed tigers at the gift shop...we've all been there).
Remember: These prices are subject to change, so it's always a good idea to check the official LA Zoo website before you head out.
Now get out there, explore the wonders of the animal kingdom, and maybe even learn a fun fact or two (like how much it costs to see a lion...which is, as we now know, a very reasonable price!).
