About this place

A zoo and botanical garden in Cincinnati with animals and plants from around the world. Families can walk through the gardens, see the animals, and ride an electric train. The zoo is known for its work protecting endangered species and breeding programs. It holds membership in the Association of Zoos & Aquariums and runs conservation projects globally. One of its best-known residents is Fiona, a hippo born prematurely who was hand-reared by the zoo's care team.

If you are a member here

A membership to Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden carries reciprocal admission, so the same card is worth free or discounted entry at other places in this program.

Reciprocal programs are built for travel and most exclude places close to the one where you hold your membership, so this is worth the most when you are away from home. How reciprocal memberships work
