I haven't actually been for about 20 years and maybe this place has changed for the better, but I always remember all the gorgeous animals imprisoned in very, way-too-small confinement areas that were very unnatural habitats for them. They were in small spaces and the atmosphere was not like a "good" contemporary zoo which gives lots of space and naturalized... More

Great fun for the kids that won't break the bank! If you combined the zoo with a carnival and amusement park you'd get this place. Advice: park at and enter from rear entrance.

My sister lived in Maine at the time we went to the York ZOO. Ireally like this zoo, my son got to ride a horse for the first time, we got to witness an elephant that painted with a paint brush and ate ice cream cones... This zoo is very easy to navigate through and i always remember it fondly.... More

We have been to York's Wild Kingdom for the past three years and I expect to be back every year until my kids no longer wish to visit. My kids have had rides on elephants and camels at York's and seriously enjoy the paddle boats. There are a wide range of animals and a relaxing butterfly enclosure. You can bring... More

great place for the kids rides and animals how can you go wrong. The butterfly place is cramped and really hot but otherwise the rest of the park is great. The rides are older carnivel style but still fun

Good place to go to after an evening meal with the family. Most of the workers, however, do not seem like they want to be there. Very run down, don't expect much

We enjoyed the animal park selections, however the biggest attractions seemed to be the ducks and the goats for hand feeding. The restrooms were not well kept or well stocked with toilet paper. The food vendors were not very well organized and called numbers, but customers had trouble remember what number they were as no receipts were given. Food vendors... More
