San Antonio Zoo

Good zoo. I really enjoyed how it's set up. We went during a cold day so there was some things we didn't get to see but it was nice having the dinosaur's out around the zoo. Good variety of animals. Also my kids got to ride on a camel which was pretty fun for them. A bit pricey but they enjoyed it so I'm a happy parent.

I really enjoyed visiting this zoo. There are so many uniquely different animals. The animal exhibits were well taken care. The animals were very active. There were many different activities for children. Patrons could feed various animals for a fee. The parking lot is smaller and finding a parking spot can be difficult. Overall, I would highly suggest taking your family.

I really enjoyed my time at this zoo. I would say it’s a medium size zoo with lots of engaging exhibits. I saw so many animals out. I loved all the fish in water exhibits, which was throughout the zoo. Pretty impressive bird collection. So many kid friendly areas and lots of restrooms peppered throughout. I’ve been to lots of zoos throughout the US and this has to be in my top 3!

Came on this vacation to check out local animal sanctuaries and get a few experiences in with wild animals. The San Antonio Zoo shows a lot of love with its exhibit design. The terrariums are well-designed and the animals seem pretty content where they are. The animals have places where they can hide if they're stressed, which may irritate some zoo-goers, but I'm glad that the Zoo gave them that. Some of the birds are also just hanging around freely within the park! The cool zones were all really neat, and a nice way to get out of the heat. I went through the entire zoo twice in about 3 or 4 hours, which I feel is a nice size for a zoo. If I didn't see an animal in the first walk through, I saw them in the second. I also fed the birds! It was an absolute joy!

Zoo Lights is a great Christmas event for children. I took my grandson and he loved it. The weather was so nice 72 degrees and almost all animals were out for viewing. We rode the train and then later walked the Park to view all of the lights. They even had snow machines. Bring your wallet as everything is a bit pricey.

Great local zoo. Not huge in size, but lots of personality and they work the exhibits into the landscape. Animals are well taken care of. Pro tip, come right when the zoo opens - got here at open and had over an hour with almost no one else in the park!

I really like this zoo. I enjoyed it so much that I bought an annual pass for my family. There are a lot of different animals to see and appreciate. Fun areas for the kids and lots of "cool zone" areas to cool off in the Texas heat. I wish that the membership plan was a bit more all inclusive. The lowest tier membership that I have doesn't allow you to ride rides or feed some of the animals without paying an additional fee. Other than that, though, it's a fun place to spend an hour or two on a weekend.

The San Antonio zoo has come so far in the ten years I've been here! I especially appreciate the upgrades to the rhino exhibit. Most of the exhibits are middle of the road as far as quality and some are better than others. The staff is very friendly and will chat with the kids if they have questions. The prices are good and there are a lot of experiences here you can pay just a little extra for that are worth doing, in my opinion.
