This 14-acre facility is packed with family fun!  Rated one of the best tourist attractions in South Carolina, the Greenville Zoo is the most visited "family facility" in the Upstate. Located in Cleveland Park, you also can enjoy the children's playground, picnic areas, walking paths and plenty of open green space.

Enjoy wildlife from around the world, including giraffes, orangutans, giant tortoises, lions and of course, everyone's favorites, Joy and Ladybird, the elephants. Visit the popular Reptile Building, which houses lizards, frogs, turtles and snakes. The Greenville Zoo provides a wonderfully wild experience for the entire family that will keep you coming back all year long!

The Zoo is open seven days a week, except on Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Day.
From March 1 to Sept. 30, the Greenville Zoo extends its hours of operation from 9 AM to 5 PM, offering guests an opportunity to take advantage of cooler mornings during the warmer months of the year.
