Got lost
After trying to jump into the lion enclosure and being stopped I had a lot of fun there was at least two animals alive but I didn't know I'm bad at counting I never got an education that I listened to. I couldn't read the maps so I got lost but the employee's where very nice and polite they pointed me in the right direction which was out of the zoo because I was lost in the reptile exhibit so long the zoo was closed. Otherwise a fantastic experience would get lost again.

Johannesburg zoo ticket office
The zoo itself is a nice experience for the kids. But the staff that sell the tickets are damn pathetic!!! We got there on 03/05/2025 for my sons birthday i had my pensioner grandparents and a disabled aunt in a wheelchair that i was buying tickets for. She was formally busy on three phone and could hear what i was saying then she had the audacity to tell me she's not talking to me... I told her that there were two pensioners and a disabled person and she made a mistake by adding adult for me eventhough I paid separately...thereafter she gave me a nasty attitude and after asking her why the attitude she refused to help me and told me I should go buy my ticket somewhere else Lol like THIS ISNT YOUR DAMN JOB!! ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING BEHAVIOUR FROM JHB ZOO STAFF.

Joburg Zoo Dec ‘24
The zoo has been under-maintained. The buildings, particularly the Amazon Centre has no working lights, the building leaks water with severe damp and the paint across the zoo’s buildings is cracked and peeling. The bathrooms aren’t stocked with toilet paper and paper towels, lights don’t work, windows are broken and they smell terrible. The water features within the zoo are inoperable and the footpaths are overgrown with ****s and filthy. The zoo needs to invest in maintaining the park for visitors to enjoy. The zoo has the potential of being a world class attraction, with a bit more attention to detail regarding the aesthetics of the buildings and facilities, this could easily be attained.
