Zoo Miami

In the space of a few hours, you will have visited the savannah of Africa, the rainforests of Asia, the Amazonian jungle, the Australian outback, and, of course, the swamps of Florida to meet more than 2,000 animals that call the zoo home. See orangutans, flamingos, anacondas, bats, and much more.

Take part in animal encounters and meet the keepers during scheduled talks throughout the day. And if you need to take a break, there are four cafés and an excellent souvenir shop.

The zoo has been laid out and planted with more than 1,200 plants and trees, designed to mimic the animal's natural habitats. There are sections and enclosures dedicated to species as well as daily shows at the Sami Amphitheater.

Start off at the African exhibits; venture to Asia and see a Malaysian sun bear; head down under to the Australian area and see the New Guinea singing dogs or Komodo dragons and admire the awesome pink flamingos, one of Florida’s most visible symbols.

• Zoo admission
