Day One- Henry Doorly Zoo

Breakfast- Grab a pastry and some coffee or juice at Delice European Bakery and Coffee Bar.

 

As you arrive at the zoo, you may be overwhelmed by the vastness of things to see. Start with the Desert Dome, then make your way through the Kingdom of the Night, Dairy world, Small Mammals, Wolf Woods, Monkeys, Durham’s Bear Canyon, Hubbard Gorilla Valley and the Orangutan Forest.

 

Lunch- TreeTops Restaurant- Enjoy dining with your family while overlooking the Lied Jungle, the world’s largest indoor rainforest. TreeTops serves cafeteria-style and is open daily.

The IMAX- The IMAX is located just across from the TreeTops. Call the box office for showtimes.

Train Ride- After a long day of walking, you’ll probably want to see the rest of the animals by rail. Board at the Keneflick Train Depot, and then sit back and relax. On your way out of the park, be sure to pass through the Giraffes and the Scott Aquarium.

Dinner- The Spaghetti Works Restaurant- Enjoy the all-you-can-eat pasta at Spaghetti Works. If your more in the mood for a salad, you’ll love the salad bar, which has been built into an old Model-T!
