you can purchase a card for Adelaide zoo. or Monarto zoo each or a 2 zoo pass which is cheaper than buying 2 separate zoo passes. I always say go first thing in the morning as it takes time to get all around the Adelaide zoo. wear good comfortable shoes. spring is the best time of year to go for our weather but if going in summer definitely in the morning for your own comfort and the animals as well.
