Pictures taken October 16, 2004.

Entrance fee is P200. This includes entrance and a tour guide for the two-hour walking tour around the zoo. Guests are required to have a tour guide with them, lest they get lost in the 7.5 hectare property. Zoo closes at 6:00PM.

Hi!

If you're bringing a car: From Commonwealth Ave, follow the signs going to Timberland/Mandala. This will lead you towards San Mateo, Rizal...dire-direcho lang (don't turn kapag nasa Timberland na)...follow the road towards Montalban...there's a sign somewhere pointing to Avilon Zoo. The zoo is near Eastwood subdivision...from the main road, turn left ka, then follow the dirt road...medyo dadaan ka sa bukid...tapos makikita mo na yung malaking gate ng Avilon.

If commuting: From Cubao, ride an FX/jeep going to Montalban. If you're riding a jeep, go down at the Total gas station in Montalban (nasa may dulo na ng byahe ito). Ride a tricycle going to Avilon zoo. If riding the FX, hanggang sa plaza lang yung FX. Baba ka ng plaza. Sakay ng jeep hanggang Total gas station. Sakay ng trike hanggang Avilon.

Hope that helps. :)
