San Diego Zoo...Tram?

Hi all!!

My fianc茅 and I are going to be visiting the San Diego Zoo in a few weeks and I was wondering if they offer any type of tram service to get to the other side of the park? I have been once before and know how large it is, but I took the sky ride to get across. Unfortunately my girl has a legitimate fear of heights that literally sends her into a panic, hyperventilating and what not so it鈥檚 not possible to get onto the sky ride. Along with feeling bad for her I also realized that the park is SO large that you cannot walk across it (I was told by a park employee it would take 4-5 hours to walk across the park) which by that time it would be closing.

So if anyone knows for sure or not I鈥檇 love to know if there are other alternatives to getting across to the other side of the park other than the impossible walk or Sky Ride.


Any help would be much appreciated,

Dom.

Thanks VERY much Chas! As soon as it lets me I will choose you as best answer!!

The tour on the double decker bus will be perfect for you. It's the best way to see the whole zoo anyway. You can wonder around and see what you want after the tour but the bus if the best way.

I have an annual pass there and go at least 10 times a year.

Have fun.

It's that big? Really? We took the sky ride across and walked back and it didn't take that long - maybe an hour or so. Maybe we missed a part?

If you get your tickets in gift card form from Albertson's (I'm pretty sure that's where we bought them) you'll get the upgraded ones that include the bus for less than at the gates.

Have fun!
