For more than 75 years, the Calgary Zoo, Botanical Garden and Prehistoric Park has offered visitors from around the world the opportunity to experience and interact with wildlife – right in the heart of the city only 5 minutes from downtown. Western Canada’s largest accredited zoo makes every trip and adventure with over 1,000 animals, 6 acres of botanical gardens, a prehistoric park, zoo-nique playgrounds and more! Let us take you around the world for your very own zoo adventure!
My boys would go wild to be up close with the animals and explore the many facets of the zoo – especially the Prehistoric Park. I would love to see their faces light up when they came face to face with Komodo Dragons, life-sized dinosaurs and imagine what life would have been like in Alberta when dinosaurs roamed the Earth. Not only a great exhibit but a wonderful learning opportunity too.
Whether you are visiting Calgary for a day or a week, it is a stunning city with a wealth of attractions to suit your preferences. You can check out all that Calgary has to offer at Tourism Calgary.
