Our 2 (almost 3) year old just wouldn't have had the patience for or really care to take a tour (and I'm sure the guides and everyone else on the tour appreciated not having a 2 year old talk through the entire tour asking 8 million questions over and over about the animals and running around). The gal at the check-in desk said they did have room for us on the tour if we wanted to join, and it would have been $25 (per adult) for each of us and $15 (per child) for our 2 year old child. So just for anyone else wondering, even if you do pay, you cannot walk around without being on a guided tour beyond the 2 front fences and the check-in building. not a toddler experience! The website made it seem like they only had tours on certain days and since they list business hours straight through the day, we assumed that you could just walk around on your own if it wasn't a tour / Wildlife encounter time. It was okay, not good, not bad - it would have been great if we weren't going for a toddler. The ski lift wasn't operating when we went, but looks fun! There's also a carousel to ride for a fee. I loved the unique views this provided and the extra exercise, but for those not able to walk far, they offer a shuttle around for $3/day.

We went at lunch time, and while it was hectic and busy, the line moved quickly.īe prepared to walk! Lots of incline walking because the zoo is in the side of the mountain. I appreciated that they sold specialty coffee drinks at the Cozy Goat that were decent. If you want to buy food they offer a decent selection of standard zoo food (burgers, pizza, hot dogs, ice cream), although prepare to pay zoo prices. For how well designed the rest of the exhibits are, I felt like they could do more in there. It had more of a pet store vibe looking at the snakes. The only underwhelming exhibit, IMO, was the reptile and bird house. Many of the animals were active while we were there and staff went out of their way to interact with guests and answer questions about the animals. It felt like equal parts modern art gallery and zoo in places and made for a great immersive experience. There are also multiple ways to interact with the environment as you make your way around (two interactive plays areas, beavers dens, caves, large sculptures to climb).

Most animals have feeding experiences (giraffes, tigers, elephants, goats, chickens, birds) that are reasonably priced compared to similar experiences at other zoos. The thing that sets the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo apart from other zoos is the number of ways you can get up close and interact with the animals.
