For the first time in Zoo history, guests can purchase an Annual Ride Pass for the Central Florida Zoo’s Little Florida Coast Line Train and Animal Carousel.

As a kickoff to this exciting addition to the Zoo, during February the Zoo will offer a discount to purchase the ride passes.  For the month of February, members of the Central Florida Zoo can purchase an Annual Ride Pass for $25 and non-members $35.  Beginning March 1, however, the Annual Ride Pass will increase to $35 for members and $45 for non-members.  The Ride Pass allows two adults and up to six children in their household unlimited rides on the Little Florida Coast Line Train and Animal Carousel.

“We purchased the train last month and are pleased that we are able to offer local residents a chance to ride the train and carousel,” says Joe Montisano, CEO.  “Kids absolutely love the train and carousel and parents tell me all the time that they can’t leave the Zoo without taking a ride.”
