Golf Cart Cruise

Details

Based on the popularity of our Cruise the Zoo event, Cleveland Metroparks Zoo has created a brand new program! Golf Cart Cruises will allow guests to take a tour of the Zoo with minimal steps. Join a knowledgeable staff member for a 60-minute golf cart journey through the African Savanna, on a Wilderness Trek, and finishing up on the back roads of Australia. This is a fun and educational experience you don't want to miss.
