Planning a Visit

For Your Comfort and Convenience

The Museum grounds include almost two miles of paths on 21 acres! Like many other zoos and museums, it is not always possible to see everything in one visit. If your time is limited, you might consider choosing exhibits and events from the grounds map and visiting at your own pace.

The Museum is primarily a walking experience. Plan to wear comfortable shoes, a hat and sunscreen, or appropriate colder weather dress. Drinking fountains, shade ramadas, benches and restrooms are scattered throughout the grounds.

Wheelchairs and strollers are available free of charge on a first come first served basis. We also have two electric scooter wheelchairs available for $10 each. All exhibits may be reached by wheelchair.

Shopping
Two gift shops offer an excellent inventory of native products, jewelry, shirts and hats, pottery, children's items, books, gems and minerals, and other southwest merchandise.

Pets
Pets are not allowed on the Museum grounds, and the Museum does not have any facilities for pets. Service animals are the only animals permitted on the Museum grounds.
