It takes GUTZ to be a Guttierez in Paradizoo Theme Farm in Mendez, Cavite and Residence Inn, Tagaytay under Zoomanity Group – The Momma Chronicles

My kids, especially my eldest since she’s the one who knows about animals, love the zoo. When we went to Tagaytay last December 2013, we made it a point to schedule a trip to the zoo so they can see how animals looked in real life and not just in books. I’m not sure if there are other zoos in Tagaytay so we headed straight to Residence Inn.  

Residence Inn Zoo is smaller compared to the other zoos I’ve been to. It may be because of space limitations, I don’t really know. Still, all the “basic” animals are there like lion, tiger, birds and monkeys. There was even a section for insects. My eldest was also thrilled when she saw the rabbits and fishes and was so amazed the whole time. My youngest, which was six months old at that time, was just busy looking around and making noises together with the monkeys. There was also a show, which we were not able to watch since my youngest was quite agitated already. Maybe next time. 

What I like most about this zoo is that it doesn’t smell that bad compared to the others. Lol! And yes, I really love the view since it is overlooking Taal volcano. Can you get that in other zoos?
