There’s no better time than December to get outside and experience all that Jacksonville Zoo has to offer. If you’re looking for some fun things to do with the kids this month – especially during Christmas vacation – take your kids and their friends to the zoo in a van rental from Carl’s Van Rentals.
Animals and Plants Up Close
The Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens is proud to host the only walking safari in Florida, among countless other unique feature. It’s split into two main exhibits: the animals and the gardens. With more than 2,000 rare and exotic animals, and 1,000 varieties of plants, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
