South Parking Lot at Saint Louis Zoo

Close walk to the zoo and easier to get to than the north parking lot

Nice parking lot, nice decorations and easy access to the zoo and it's clean no trash laying around.

Parking is 15 dollars. Not a far walk to the entrance of the zoo. Clean parking lot. Has some cool statues of animals to look at. Good photo opt.

Took my granddaughter on a Saturday. It was a nice day. The weather was great, which meant the zoo was packed! I don't think I've ever been there when it was so busy. The parking lots were completely full. We had to park about 1 mile away and walk. It was difficult to get up to see some of the animals bc it was so busy. We did enjoy ourselves, though. Food prices aren't bad at all. Staff was friendly. The zoo was clean, including bathrooms. We definitely enjoyed the day. Next time, I'll go through the week and during the school year to avoid so many people.

The line getting into the parking lot was very very long so I went around on the south side and found a parking spot a half a block up from the parking lot. At $15 a car they were taking in thousands of dollars today which was fantastic for the zoo. They need all the money that they can take in and I was in a correct spot to catch a lady that was tumbling into a brick wall although I did sustained a cut on my arm I'm sure she would have hit her head and it would have been a lot worse. God works in mysterious ways.

Nice enough place to park. It was $15 when we went. They have signs for each row to help you remember where you parked. Each row is a different animal. It was an easy walk over to the zoo. If you had a wheel chair it might be challenging once you get to the zoo side. There's a fairly steep decent into the zoo.

Lot is well maintained and secure. Easy access to zoo entrance.

Lots of disability parking and very easy to walk to the zoo. Just wish they had someone directing traffic at the gates on the weekend because some people are inconsiderate and drive extremely reckless to get ahead of one or two people 😔.

Went on a Sunday. Not to packed when we got there, little busier later. A few new updates. New tree club house to go through and it's nice to see different monkeys and the habitats they originally live in. Was pretty hot. Suggest maybe a few more fan sprinklers throughout to help. Also the sting rays are so cool to pet. Love this zoo.

Here from Lexington Kentucky. Love the zoo! Especially the 1904 flight aviary. Didn't know it existed. Apart of history!

Best Zoo in the country. Can't beat free

We got there and hardly any of the animals were out we didn't get to go to a couple places because we couldn't go back to them I didn't even get to the penguin place because they had a long line and couldn't get in there so he went on they need to start having their animals come out sooner at least 10 minutes before the people come in because I know there are several other people that are complaining about this somebody told me it was because it was hot and they don't want to get out well that day was beautiful and cool and in our zoo the animals are eager to get out I have seen them start putting them out and they run out because they like to go out and play so the woman was just giving me an excuse all of the people were very nice and etc I just don't like people lying to me because I don't think that was true I think it was the person that the head of it that was being lazy or something it was ridiculous but we did have fun and I would go back that's about the only thing that they could change maybe some of the drink prices and stuff like that they don't need to be that high

So happy the zoo is open again.

Excelent place to Park to visit The zoo.

I felt very comfortable at the zoo because they do a great job at not having the place overcrowded, due to people having to make reservations in ordered to get in . Of course the masks are required as well so I would definitely feel comfortable going there again for an awesome day with my family.👍

We were there at 8:00 A.M.. Nice clean lot. Easy parking spaces

So easy to get to. Great service, guy was so nice

We parked here ($15) to go the free St. Louis Zoo. The Zoo was awesome! Highly recommend it. Staff throughout the Zoo are helpful but not intrusive.

We go to the zoo at least four times a year and me and my children and my family and my husband enjoy it so much we love the animals the gift shops and the food I always recommend St Louis too because it's one of the biggest news in the United States we absolutely love it

Plenty of parking options. The zoo has lots of shade areas to help with heat in the Midwest. They provide a wide range of foods at a reasonable cost and the food is quite good.
