About this activity

If you're in Chicago, you don't have to travel too far to have an incredible day out filled with animal encounters. In fact, only a few minutes north of the city is Lincoln Park Zoo - a world of wildlife waiting to be explored!

You know what else is super great about Lincoln Park Zoo? It's FREE! Yep! They are dedicated to giving all families who visit the Windy City an incredible time, and a chance to experience some unforgettable animal encounters. So what are you waiting for!?

The zoo has creatures from all across the globe, so you don't have to travel to experience them. Here, they come to you!

From mammals, to birds, and reptiles, and everything in between, the zoo is sure to have your favorite animal. Have you ever wanted to look a tiger in the eye, or see the gorillas play? Perhaps you want to see first hand the majesty of the lions, or the cuteness of the American Beaver?

It's all for the taking at Lincoln Park Zoo!

An experience at the zoo is more than just looking at animals for kids. It's a place where they can learn all about the creatures, different parts of the world, and the importance of conservation. They might also come across some creatures they have never seen before!

Kids, do you know what an axolotl is, or perhaps the Bali Mynah? What do you think a Klipspringer is? Any idea? Best head there to find out then!

Don't miss the other attractions that you can enjoy during your time at the zoo, from the Lionel Train Adventure, and an Endangered Species Carousel!

Great animal fun in Chicago!
