Toronto Zoo Limo and Chauffeur Service | Scarborough Family Car Hire
Jun 3, 2026
Private chauffeur, limo and black car service to the Toronto Zoo. Family day transfers, school and camp groups, hourly hire with the vehicle waiting on site.
The Toronto Zoo occupies a very large site in the Rouge Valley in Scarborough, at the far eastern edge of the city. It is one of the biggest zoos in the world by land area, which matters for planning: a full visit is a long day on foot, and the site is nowhere near anything else.
Onroutz.com provides licensed, insured chauffeured ground transportation to and from The Toronto Zoo in Toronto. Whether you are arriving for the day, moving between venues, or need a vehicle waiting while you are inside, our chauffeurs handle the parking problem, the traffic and the timing so you do not have to. See our Toronto service area for coverage details.
The Toronto Zoo Limo, Black Car and Private Chauffeur Service
Guests searching for Toronto Zoo limo service, zoo transportation Toronto, family car service Scarborough, school group chauffeur Toronto, hourly car hire Toronto Zoo are all describing the same thing: a licensed, insured vehicle with a professional chauffeur that arrives when it says it will and waits when you need it to. Onroutz.com provides that across Toronto and the wider region, seven days a week.
Getting to the Toronto Zoo
The zoo is at 2000 Meadowvale Road, reached from Highway 401 at Meadowvale. From downtown it is a 35 to 50 minute run on the 401 depending on traffic, and the 401 through Scarborough is one of the busiest stretches of highway in North America. There is no practical alternative route, so timing the departure matters more than choosing the road.
Pickup and Drop-off Points at The Toronto Zoo
- Main entrance forecourt — the standard drop-off and pickup point.
- Group unloading area — for coaches and vans arriving together.
- Return pickups — pre-agreed, since the site is remote and closing time produces a surge.
- Accessible drop-off — available on request at booking.
- Stroller and gear loading — handled by the chauffeur at both ends.
Hourly and As-Directed Chauffeur Service at The Toronto Zoo
Hourly, or as-directed, service keeps a chauffeur and vehicle dedicated to you for a block of time. The driver waits nearby while you are inside, holds coats, bags and purchases, and moves on your schedule rather than a dispatch queue. Guests use our hourly chauffeur and full day driver hire for a full family day where the vehicle waits on site rather than making two long trips, a school or camp group, or a combined zoo and Rouge Park outing.
- Three hour minimum on hourly bookings.
- Unlimited stops inside the booked block, with no per-stop surcharge.
- The same chauffeur and vehicle stay with you for the full reservation.
- Extend on the day if you are running long, subject to availability.

It Is Further Than People Expect, in Both Directions
The zoo is at the eastern boundary of Toronto and the 401 is the only sensible route. Families frequently underestimate both the journey and the day: the site is enormous, children tire, and closing time produces a simultaneous exodus into a single car park. Booking the vehicle to wait on site removes the worst part of the day, which is the walk back to a distant parking row with exhausted children.
