Bee City Zoo & Honey Bee Farm is a unique and engaging destination for visitors of all ages. The zoo offers a variety of experiences, including up-close encounters with animals such as baby kangaroos, lemurs, parakeets, camels, emus, llamas, bison, oxen, and deer. Visitors can also participate in a safari adventure to get up close and personal with the larger animals, although some may find the safari ride not worth the extra cost, as it takes them on a trailer in a circle to feed animals they can feed while walking around. The zoo's café serves a range of food options, including chicken fingers, hot dogs, pulled pork, fries, and ice cream, with reasonably priced lunch offerings. The reptile exhibit and gift shop provide air-conditioned relief from the outdoor heat, and shaded areas offer a comfortable atmosphere. During special events like holiday lights, the friendly and knowledgeable staff go above and beyond to make visitors' experiences memorable, such as calling to arrange extra rides. While some areas like the tiger enclosure may need improvement, the zoo continues to grow and add new exhibits, making it a fun and educational place worth visiting. Visitors often spend several hours exploring, feeding animals, and enjoying lunch, especially appreciating the friendly staff and the opportunity to get more food for the animals. It is a perfect place for little ones, with some wish for larger enclosures and more shade while waiting in line for activities like the safari. Overall, Bee City Zoo & Honey Bee Farm remains a popular spot for families looking for a fun, interactive, and educational experience.
