Amazing! Dont miss it. It’s clean, educational, spacious, and the animals are delightful. So are the staff. One of the best zoos we have experienced. Full review by James S

Some parts of this zoo were outstanding and other are need of some love. The front half of the zoo felt a little random in the animals on display and the layout, and those exhibits seemed more basic… Full review by jordanhU9644MX

The zoo has some terrific exhibits - the gibbon house and outdoor area is particularly interesting, and some that could be better in terms of cleaning the glass so the views of the animals and their … Full review by Leigh C
So I will be in Winnipeg in 2 weeks (mid Feb). The Journey to Churchill is indoors? I was told the zoo is open all year round, but will there be anything else to see if it's below 0 Celsius?

The "Journey to Churchill" is primarily outdoors. The only indoor aspect (to the best of my knowledge) is when you go underground to watch the animals swimming. I have been vistiting the zoo for over 50 years and have found that they have changed the animal exhibits to reflect more of what really lives in our climate. The monkey exhibit (along with other more exotic animals) has been greatly reduced but there are now more animals on display in that are "Manitoba Survivors": the wolf, polar bear and bison enclosures are quite expansive and although these animals are living in a cage, at least it is a big cage. Many of the bigger cats are winter hardy and they are out there, too. Same goes with many deer species. Yes, it is winter but there will be lots to see! Dress warm and hope for the best. Bring your skates and a toboggan (or Crazy Carpet) as there is a great recreational facility in the park that doesn't cost you anything - Unless you buy hot chocolate!
How long should one allot for time when touring the Zoo? We are (4 adults) traveling to Winnipeg and want to see as much of the city as we can in the day and 1/2 there.
A:
If you arrive as it opens, I would think about 2 hours. There’s an open minibus that can be accessed & the fellow that drives it is very helpful!
