Miami zoo tickets cost $30 for adults and $26 for children ages 3 to 12, and parking at Zoo Miami is free. Children 2 and under get in free. This guide gives the prices and hours for Zoo Miami and six other big Miami attractions, plus how long each one takes.

Where Miami's big attractions are

Zoo Miami is far from the beach, and most of the other attractions in this list sit close to downtown or Wynwood. Zoo Miami is at 12400 SW 152 St. in the south of the county. Jungle Island, the Museum of Ice Cream and the Pérez Art Museum are all near downtown, and Superblue and the Wynwood Walls are in Wynwood. If you want a loop past the city's sights without driving, a big bus tour Miami is one way to see the downtown ones from a seat. Our page on getting around Miami covers the other options. The Pérez Art Museum shows modern and contemporary art from around the world.

GetYourGuide sells three of these places (prices checked 2026-10-23). Entry to the Museum of Ice Cream, with unlimited ice cream, is from EUR 29. A 40-minute guided Wynwood Walls tour with entry is from EUR 20. Rubell Museum entry with the Kusama Infinity Rooms is from EUR 25.

Most Miami attractions price by the day of the week, so the same ticket can cost less on a Tuesday.

1. Zoo Miami tickets: $30 for adults, parking free

Zoo Miami charges $30 for adults (13 and over) and $26 for children 3 to 12, and children 2 and under are free. The zoo's ticket page says the prices include 7% sales tax and that parking is free. The zoo opens every day from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and the last ticket is sold at 4 p.m. On some night-event dates the zoo closes at 4 p.m., so check the date you plan to go.

Plan a full day. The zoo's FAQ says the average guest spends four to five hours, and the grounds cover almost 750 acres with 4 miles of walkways. Outside food and alcohol are not allowed, but picnic tables stand outside the entrance. Feeding the giraffes and parrots costs extra, and the zoo does not list the price on those pages.

The zoo does not say whether it lets you bring a water bottle. Food prices are not published either, and capybaras are not named on its animal or exhibit pages. Call 305-251-0400 if one of these decides your trip. The site's GetYourGuide list has no ticket for Zoo Miami, so you buy it from the zoo. You do not need a tour here. The ticket, a car and the free parking are enough.

Pro Tip Arrive at 10 a.m. when the gates open, and buy your ticket for a set date online, because the zoo asks you to pick your visit day.

The honest limit is the distance. With only a few hours or no car, Zoo Miami is the wrong pick, and Jungle Island is the easier animal stop.

2. Jungle Island: the shorter animal visit

Jungle Island lists general admission from $22.95, and a visit takes about 3 to 4 hours. Its ticket page says the park is open daily from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., with the last admission at 4 p.m. The address is 1111 Parrot Jungle Trail, Miami, FL 33132.

Admission covers the Treewalk Village, the wildlife exhibits, the Guardians of the Jungle show, an Everglades habitat, the playground and the Manu Aviary. Covered parking costs a flat $20 a day. That makes parking nearly as much as one adult ticket, so a family of four should count it in.

If you want wild animals in their own habitat instead, see our page on Everglades airboat tours.

3. Museum of Ice Cream: a 90-minute indoor stop

The Museum of Ice Cream in Miami takes about 90 minutes, and general tickets start at $24 on the museum's own page. The museum's Miami page lists Flex tickets from $32 and VIP from $49, and the price changes by date and time. It is open Monday to Thursday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Friday to Sunday from 10 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. Last entry is 90 minutes before closing.

The museum stands at 851 NE 1st Ave., in Paramount Miami Worldcenter. General admission includes unlimited ice cream.

GetYourGuide sells the Museum of Ice Cream entry ticket from €29 per person. It is rated 4.4 from 758 reviews and has free cancellation. The listing says it is run by Museum of Ice Cream Miami and is not suited to people with back problems. Transport and meals are not included. You can read more on our page for Museum of Ice Cream Miami tickets.

4. Superblue Miami: priced by the weekday

Superblue Miami charges $34 for an adult ticket from Monday to Thursday and $42 from Friday to Sunday. Superblue's visit page lists Florida residents, students and seniors at $29 and $36, and children 3 to 12 at $19 and $21. The teamLab Massless Clouds add-on costs $12 a day.

Superblue opens Monday to Thursday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., Friday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Superblue sits at 1101 NW 23 St. The page does not say how long a visit takes, so the visit length is not published. A free guided tour runs at 1 p.m., and it needs a general ticket. General admission covers more than 50,000 square feet of light and sound art. It includes works by James Turrell, Es Devlin's mirrored maze and teamLab's digital rooms.

5. Pérez Art Museum Miami: the cheapest museum, free on Thursday evenings

The Pérez Art Museum Miami charges adults $18, and entry is free on Thursdays after 5 p.m. The museum's visit page lists seniors, students and ages 7 to 18 at $14, and children 6 and under free. Active military, veterans, first responders and Florida educators with ID get in free.

The museum opens Monday and Friday to Sunday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Thursday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. It closes Tuesday and Wednesday. Ticket sales stop 30 minutes before closing. The museum is at 1103 Biscayne Blvd., between the Arsht Center and the Kaseya Center, and tickets can sell out, so it advises buying online.

6. Wynwood Walls: a short, cheap stop

The Wynwood Walls charge adults $12, and the park is open daily from 10:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. The official admissions page lists ages 13 to 17 at $5, seniors 65 and over at $10, and children 12 and under free. Each general ticket includes a spray-painting experience. You find it at 2516 NW 2nd Ave.

If you want a guide, the Wynwood Walls inside tour costs from €20 per person and runs 40 minutes. It is rated 4.5 from 203 reviews, has free cancellation and is run by The Wynwood Walls. Groups are up to 40 people, and food, drinks and tips are not included. You meet at the walls at 2516 NW 2nd Ave., and hotel pickup is not included. You can pay the cheaper $12 at the gate and walk on your own.

7. Rubell Museum: art with the Infinity Rooms

The Rubell Museum ticket on GetYourGuide includes entry and Yayoi Kusama's Infinity Rooms. The Rubell Museum and Infinity Rooms ticket costs from €25 per person, has free cancellation, and is run by the Rubell Museum. It has 3 reviews, all 5 stars, so there is little evidence yet. Three reviews are too few to trust on their own. The listing is run by the Rubell Museum itself, though, not by a third-party tour company. The museum's own hours and prices are not confirmed here, so check them before you go. The meeting point is 1100 NW 23rd St.

Key Takeaway For Miami zoo tickets, budget $30 per adult and a whole day, and treat the Seaquarium as closed.

What happened to the Miami Seaquarium

The Miami Seaquarium closed in October 2025, so no Miami Seaquarium tickets are on sale. The county had evicted the park, and an Associated Press report says the site is to be redeveloped. Plans for it can change, so it is not listed as something to do.

Best Things to Do in Miami's count of GetYourGuide listings in October 2026 found 12 entry tickets among 285 Miami listings. None is for Zoo Miami, Jungle Island or the Seaquarium.

How to choose among Miami's attractions

Pick Zoo Miami for a full day with animals, and pick a museum or Superblue for a few hours indoors. The table puts the time, the price and the best fit side by side.

Miami's weather decides some of this. June and September are the wettest months, with over 10 inches of rain each, according to NOAA's climate normals. On those days, the indoor options beat the zoo.

Book a Miami attraction ticket

For Zoo Miami, do it on your own. No tour sells it, and the zoo's own ticket and free parking are all you need. At the Wynwood Walls, the $12 gate ticket is enough too, unless you want a guide to explain the murals. GetYourGuide sells tickets for three of these places, from €20 to €29 per person (checked 2026-10-23). It does not sell Zoo Miami, Jungle Island or Seaquarium tickets, so buy those on the official sites.
