Self-Guided Field Trips Reservations Policies
We do not hold restrictions for how many groups visit per day, please consider your reservation completion as a confirmation for your visit. You will NOT be receiving an email.
- Please make field trip reservations at least two weeks prior to your visit date.
- Student safety is important to us at the Honolulu Zoo, and for that reason we require a minimum ratio of one adult per 10 students regardless of age group. We also require shoes to be worn at all times while on Zoo grounds.
- We DO NOT have facilities for storing lunches. We suggest placing lunches in a box/cooler and storing them on one of our picnic tables accompanied by one of your chaperones, renting double strollers ($7 each) from our gift shop to transport the lunches, bringing in wagons to pull lunches, or have the students carry their lunches with them.
- If you would like to visit the Keiki Zoo on your field trip please call the Education Coordinator to schedule at 808.926.3191 ext. 110.
- After completing your reservation be sure to download the appropriate confirmation packet before exiting the screen. Packets are to be filled out by the group leader and can be used as an invoice. A completed packet is required for Zoo Entry on the day of your visit.
