- Omaha
Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium brings animal habitats and large indoor environments together on a substantial site.

Rainforest, desert, aquatic, and other settings introduce wildlife through the conditions in which it lives, while conservation interpretation adds context to the encounters. The variety makes this a destination that benefits from deliberate route planning.
Allow a substantial part of the day and consult the current map before setting out. Check habitat notices, ticket options, and seasonal attractions, and plan time for rest stops rather than trying to cover every area at once.
