Kids Free at the San Diego Zoo & Safari Park

by

The entire month of October kids are free at the San Diego Zoo and the Safari Park.  The price for a child admission is normally $30, what a huge savings!  This would be a great (and really inexpensive) birthday party  idea if your child has a birthday in October.  We love walking around the Zoo, the kids especially love watching all the animals. For more information on this amazing special offer click here, or see the fine print below.

Fine Print:  Each year, from October 1–31, in honor of our Zoo’s founding, children ages 3–11 are admitted free to the Zoo and Safari Park when accompanied by an adult.  The Zoo’s Guided Bus Tour and the Skyfari Aerial Tram are not included with Kids’ Free 1-Day Pass and must be purchased separately at the Zoo.  The Safari Park’s Africa Tram Safari and the Conservation Carousel are not included with Kids Free 1-Day Pass and must be purchased separately at the Park.
