Summer Shuttle

The Alaska Zoo operates a summer shuttle which is FREE, with a looped route between Downtown Anchorage and the Alaska Zoo. The shuttle is in operation Thursdays though Sundays from May 22nd through August 31st, 2025 only. Our shuttle requires online reservations in advance. The meeting location in Downtown Anchorage is in front of the Visitors Cabin at 4th and F St. The meeting location at the zoo is next to the Gift Shop, curbside at the entry to the lower parking lot. Each trip is reserved separately. Please note that the last shuttle to the zoo will be at 4:30pm, however there are no trips after 4:30pm returning to Downtown (last trip to Downtown at 4;00pm).
