OMAHA ZOO HORTICULTURAL TOUR and LAURITZEN GARDENS TOUR
Noon – 5:00 p.m.
Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo & Aquarium. It was voted Number One Zoo in the World by TripAdvisor, April 2014. It was named the largest zoo in the world by Touropia.com. You can not see it all in one day. You will get to see many of the highlights. Many of the attractions, including the Lied Jungle, the Aquarium, the Desert Dome, Kingdoms of the Night, the Aviary and others were the largest in the world when they were constructed. Many of those still hold that ranking. The new $73 million, 28-acre African Grasslands is the zoo’s largest undertaking to date. It is scheduled to be completed this summer. Most of it should be ready for your viewing in May. We highly recommend, if you like zoos and can spare the time, that you stay over on Friday after TOCA and spend as much time as you’d like at the zoo. We have made arrangements for a Friday pass for those who request them in advance.

The Visitor and Information Center contains over 32,000 sq. ft. of indoor space. The newest addition is the Conservatory where the TOCA Reception will take place. You are welcome to stay and visit the gardens right up until the reception starts at 7 p.m. and then visit the Conservatory at that time. If you feel you must go back to the hotel prior to the reception, transportation will be provided.
Recommended Attire – Lightweight jacket or sweater, and comfortable walking shoes.
