You can show your child a real zoological paradise on the Hawaiian Islands. The capital of Honolulu is home to a 17-hectare zoo inhabited by 905 species of tropical animals. Honolulu Zoo is the only zoo that you will encounter within a radius of four thousand kilometers. It is also the only zoo in the United States built on the territory of the former possessions of the Royal Family. In 1879, the Hawaiian Monarch, King David Kalakaua, gave part of his land to the Hawaiian people. The modern zoo was founded in 1984.

The zoo is divided into three tropical ecological zones. You will visit the African Savannah, tropical forests of Asia, Africa and the Pacific Islands. Due to its remoteness from the Big Earth, Hawaii boasts a unique flora and fauna, 25% of which you will not find in any corner of the world! At the zoo, you will see American alligators, Japanese white-eyed birds, kookaburra birds, ring-tailed lemurs, red Holstein cows, Indian elephants and star turtles. The list is endless.

If the duration of your vacation is more than seven days, and your child is not averse to trying himself as a researcher, you have a unique opportunity to use the services of a zoo camp, where each week is devoted to a different topic. For example, "Animals of the Arctic and Antarctic", "Flying World", "Anthology and Paleontology", "Endangered species of animals of the Hawaiian Islands." The doors of the Honolulu Zoo are open for children from 4 to 11 years old, the time of stay is from 8.30 to 14.30, the cost of a stay for seven days is from 250 to 300 dollars.
