I went on business for a college field trip and had a great time. I enjoyed seeing the animals! The coolest part was a barn with the huge windows where they wash the elephants in the morning. I didn't get to see it but I'll definitely be coming back with family for that. I like that they do enrichment activities... More

I appreciated the focus of education rather than entertainment. The management and keepers were both knowledgeable and passionate about the animals and conservation efforts.

Really enjoyed the elphants at the zoo. They were very active and one of the smaller ones was playing with a log in a pool, which was really fun to watch and definitely the highlight of the day. The whole zoo has a lot of different animals and it was great to walk around with the camera and take pictures... More

I had a very interactive and exciting visit to the zoo. The animals and habitats are great, and put you into the feel of the place of where the animals are from. They people there make it evident that they love their job and want to help you in any way they can.

I attended the Houston Zoo with a class I was traveling with so we didn't have much time to see a lot, but the hour I was there was awesome. I enjoyed all of the staff I came in contact with and loved watching the different animals enjoy themselves as well

We went this time for the Christmas lights. Only some parts were open, but the lights were amazing and we did get to see some nocturnal animals, the aquarium, and have some hot chocolate. Fun thing to do, kids loved the lights.

We arrived about an hour and a half before close and were able to complete the entire park in that time. Not too many special things too it. The longhorns are worth seeing! If you're in town and have time to kill check it out.
