Nashville Zoo at Grassmere

Just came back from having the funnest time at the Nashville Zoo with my family! Our first time and we loved it. Make sure to take advantage of their military discount if you are active duty or a veteran, it is $10 off per ticket for everyone in your party but the caveat is you have to purchase the tickets in person at their booths. Definitely worth it though! It came out to $100 for 4 adults and 1 child for us. The size of the zoo is nice! Not too big and not too small. Plenty of animals to see and all the well known ones with a couple of off the wall animals as well. We got our steps in and got to see a bunch of amazing animals at the same time. I love their interactive areas with the goats as well as the kangaroos! You’re able to walk around with them in their habitat. We weren’t able to pet the kangaroos but the goats were nice! Got lots of pictures of all the animals they have. The scenery for the zoo is very nice too, they picked a great location! Plenty of trees for shade and the trails are all pretty much level so no walking up hills or anything. Would definitely be back again!

I had a fantastic time visiting the Nashville Zoo. One of the highlights for me was the reptile, aviary, and aquatic exhibit, very impressive. There was so much to do and see throughout the zoo that it’s easy to spend hours exploring and still not catch everything. The animals looked well cared for and their habitats seemed thoughtfully maintained, which really added to the experience. The staff were also incredibly friendly and accommodating, making the visit even more enjoyable. Definitely worth the trip if you're in the area.

Easily the best Zoo I’ve ever been to. Being at a zoo that the animals look happy & healthy was an absolute delight. I’ve never seen such beautiful displays or enclosures. The array of creatures that I’d never seen before was madly enthralling. Stand outs for me include the Tiger, Andean Bear, the Rhinoceros, & the Hidden Creatures Aviary. Never seen such beautiful beings so close before. Go check this zoo out yo. Made me wish I could come back just to experience it again.

Had an awesome time here with our family and small children! It was our first visit as a family and we had a great day together! It was a weekday and a little overcast, so not very busy at all, which was nice! It was really cool walking through the entire park! We regularly go to Louisville Zoo, so it was cool seeing some new animals including, the Speckled Bear, red lemurs, and a few others. Also the vet exhibit area was super cool and there was even a baby leopard cub sleeping in there we got to see 🥹 The kids absolutely loved the giant playground area and we could have easily spent another day just there. The big rope tree house areas and zip lines were their favorites. Zoo was very clean and well maintained. If you are another zoo member make sure to mention and save on tickets!

We always enjoy visiting the Nashville zoo! Such a large variety of amazing animals to see, not to mention the beautiful landscaping all around the park. It was a beautiful Sunday when we visited and it was definitely crazy crowded which made it hard to maneuver in some places. I also didn’t like the fact that we had to pay to park on top of paying for our tickets. Otherwise a fantastic trip!
