Instructions for Reserving a Field Trip

To schedule your Phoenix Zoo field trip, simply follow the steps below. If you have questions, please contact our Reservations Department at 602-914-4333.
 

1. Ensure that your group meets the Group Rate Criteria and qualifies for our group rate of $4/person.

2. Choose a date for your visit. We limit school reservations to 1800 youth per day to maximize your field trip experience. Thursday and Fridays in February, March and April are the busiest times of the year. The Zoo is open every day except December 25th.
3. Read through the section Enhancing Your Field Trip and decide if you’d like to sign up for any additional programs during your field trip.
4. Download and fax or mail the Field Trip Reservation Form.
5. Our Reservations Department will fax you back a School Confirmation Form. This confirmation form is your “ticket” in to the Zoo at your special rate and must be presented at the admissions booth when entering. If you do not receive this form within 48 hours of your fax, please call the Reservations office at 602-914-4333. Please allow 10 days for mailed forms.
6. Complete and fax or mail the School Group Lunch Form or Souvenir Bag order form, if necessary, to the appropriate fax number listed on each form.
7. Read and complete the Teacher Checklist (sent with confirmation fax). Make copies and distribute the Chaperone Checklist to all of your chaperones. Remember, we require at least one chaperone for every ten students at all times.
8. Come and enjoy the Phoenix Zoo on your chosen date!
