The Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens is one of Jacksonville’s top attractions, featuring a unique walking safari during which visitors can enjoy the zoo’s 2,000 animals and 1,000 exotic plant species. Located at the mouth of the Trout River, the zoo and gardens offer a real family adventure with a range of outstanding exhibits, such as the award-winning ‘Range of the Jaguar’ to Giraffe Overlook and the beautiful Savanna Blooms garden.

The ‘Land of the Tiger’ features an innovative walk-through trail system for the zoo’s two Sumatran and three Malayan Tigers, while other exhibits include the Africa-focused ‘Plains of East Africa’, which is home to the giants that live on the African plains; ‘Great Apes of the World’, featuring two of the four great apes among other primates; the ‘Australian Outback’, which features kangaroos, cassowaries, and lorikeets; and ‘Wild Florida’, which features animals native to the state of Florida.
