Who knew that we could truly engage in an African Safari experience right here in Texas. Having been to an original Kenyan safari while visiting in Nairobi, I can confirm that the experience we had at Wildlife Ranch was equally awesome. Not at all like a Zoo experience. The best part for us was when the animals came up to our vehicles and we were able to feed them straight out if our hands!! Be careful though, the naughty Ostriches will stick their heads in! What a great experience for the whole family!

Great for people who are anti-zoo. More safari where you can feed the animals and see them roaming in a much more humane way. I enjoyed it. There is a small Cafe with burgers and sandwiches, but we did not eat there. You can also drive through the park more than once. There is a very small area to walk and view a few animals in more of a zoo setting.

This was much better than we expected. We had an absolute blast. We arrived early with a bit of light rain. The animals werent too active, but by the end of the entire route they began moving around much more. We made 2 laps.We enjoyed the ostriches as they were the boldest animals. They put their heads and long necks into our vehicle! We saw many many different wildlife; Bison, giraffes, rhino, zebra, gazelle, etc etc.The entire visit took approximately 3.5 hours. We loved it & recommend it. Two parents, a 14 year old daughter and a 5 year old daughter.

Visited today and enjoyed it just as much as precious times. Some reviews say they couldn’t feed animals, but as of today 10/18/20, we did get a chance to feed them. Food was provided for $3 a bag to feed animals, price is reasonable and worth it. Loved feeding the animals, and perfect weather. Good family time, something that needs to be experienced. My advice go early, less people. Staff was friendly, restrooms were clean. definitely will be returning. Good place to pass family time especially during this time of social distancing.

Took the kids, but really it was for the kid in me! Seeing so many animals up close, some within touching distance if we dared, we didnt dare. Got to feed them all as well. My kiddos favorite was the giraffes! They have the buildings and walk about area open, they do require masks to be worn if youre in those areas. Very neat experience. Plan on going back when the youngest kid is older and can enjoy it more.

I have been here before and it was a lot better with more animals to see. This time maybe because it was later in the day and it was hot but they seemed few and far between. Either way the kids had a great time so it was worth it.

Wonderful experience. You get to drive around as much as youd like until they close. The animals are fun and you can buy a bag of food to feed to them for a few bucks. Highly suggest going and taking a camera, snacks, and water.

We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves here! This was our 2nd visit and they have expanded the park tremendously since our 1st visit. The staff was very welcoming, friendly & helpful. The park was clean (except for the Womens facilities in the Sweet Treats area) & the wildlife was very well kept. The Gift Shop was also great! The only things that I would change is the time frame in which we went & the cleanliness of the facilities. Both times we went after Noon & in the TX heat. I would suggest going early morning (park opening) & during more subtle weather (Fall or Spring). The animals were just so tired, hot & full by the time we arrived that most animals did not want to engage in human contact, as the animals usually eat right out of your hand. I highly suggest taking the family for a visit!

Wonderful place! I love all the animals from all over the world. We were unable to feed the animals right now due to COVID, but still a great time! A long winding road through the different world regions with animals from each region in that section. Plus a great stopping point mid trip for bathrooms and an up close view to a giraffe area. Then you continue on through. At the end, you can get out of the car, and walk through the walk about area with more animals to see up close. There is a gift shop and a restaurant too for you to enjoy before heading out. I highly recommend it! We had a fantastic time!

Very refreshing natural reserve, we were expecting elephants but we loved what we saw also..During covid-19 having to show wildlife to kids from the car without being revised to a lot of people was really relieving!And kids had so much fun, it was worth waiting on the queue for an hour..

This place was just awesome. Loved the wild animals and the staff was super friendly. Especially in times of COVID It was nice to be able to experience this from your car with out worry of person to person contact. The tour is rather long and worth the visit. Check it out.

THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE MUST SEE FOR ANYONE!! I’ve never experienced such an amazing place to see animals! They come so close to your vehicle and you can feed them with food purchased from the main entrance!

This place is wonderful!It was a great experience to see the animals coming right up to the car. At the mid-way point, you can park for a restroom break and some ice cream, and then walk to the giraffe enclosure.The giraffes are majestic!!They have every manner of deer and antelope, but youll get a kick out of the zebras and the rhinoceros.At the end of the drive, youll go through a passage where the ostriches are strutting their stuff and approach to your car practically demanding food.Pro tip: save food for the ostriches at the end!Note: They WILL stick their heads into your car. So, if that kind of thing freaks you out, raise your windows.The Walkabout is cute, but its incredibly small. Though we loved the lemurs and the tiny monkeys, we were a little disappointed at how small it was.I would have given it 5 stars, but its pretty pricey and the Walkabout was way too small to be called an attraction. Also, the gift shop is crazy expensive. $30 for shirts that will fade after a few washes is insane.Still, this was a great experience and I would recommend it to anyone that has a family, especially if the kids love animals.

This place was very fun!!! There were lots of animals like giraffes, cows, goats, zebras, rams, dears, and way more. You cant get out of your car for most of the animals, but for giraffes you can. I recommend this place for families, but anyone can come and enjoy. You can buy bags of food to feed the animals with. There is a gift shop, restaurant, and alot of land. Again I totally recommend for all ages.

Beautiful lands and beautiful wildlife! Love that the animals are being preserved, free to roam the lands and procreate.

This place is awesome..many animals & beautiful hills.. Beautiful place to spend with ur ones (family) & grandchildren.. We had an awesome time.. Making memories, priceless

Although there is much space to roam I cannot even imagine how stressful so many cars are for the animals. Kids were teasing them and throwing things at them and there was no one around to enforce the rules not to. Huge lines of cars constantly going through and it looked as though there was little to no enrichment for the animals aside from the children harassing them. If you want to support trustworthy wildlife places I suggest going elsewhere.

Awesome place to take the kids and practice social distance. The price per person was too high in my opinion. I think would be more fair to charge per car.

This was our first time we had ever come to the safari. It was an amazing experience and would do it again. I do recommend coming early when there are no vehicles, since the animals are used to the vehicles, they come up to the windows quickly.

Loved this awesome & adventures place.. Nice family oriented outing.. Beautiful, excelling and very fun.. !

I really appreciate that they will let you drive through as many times as you like before close. We missed out on the zebra but you able to get close up to most for some great photos. The prices are a little high for the per person but not too much when you compare to other parks; however, with this being a drive through the park it is a save environment regarding covid.

This is the perfect socially distanced activity to do with your family. Though you cannot feed the animals currently, we saw quite a few animals out in the early afternoon. Driving through the ranch makes you feel as if youve been transported to an African savanna. The cost of entry is definitely a point of contention, we had 3 cars with a total of 11 people and about half of our party didnt feel like it was worth the cost of entry. Regardless, a unique chance to encounter some African Wildlife in Texas.

Had so much fun coming here! You can’t feed the animals currently but the emus might come up really close to your car and peck your windows gently for attention. It took about 1.5 hour to circle the place at a 5mph speed. Saw lots of animals. Coming early is a must so it’s not too hot and they are out eating. You can circle around more than once if you want to. At the end is a gift store and a walk through area where you can see lemurs and monkeys; masks are required in the walking area. There’s restrooms and a grill place to eat there as well. Military and first responder discounts are available. Great for family and kids! (No dogs including service animals)

A wonderful experience! Great for the whole family, a date, or just a couple to get away! My wife and were in town seeing my dad and he brought us here.

Great family experience! If you have small kids, this place is a great getaway! Well maintained facilities and well organized as well. One suggestion:- $50 per car (instead of charging per head) I feel would be more reasonable.

Our children loved it....they could not contain their excitement.....The drive was awesome and took us about two hours to complete, I got to drive thru at my pace without anyone rushing us.....different animals in different sections on the ranch. Great experience for the entire family......

This place never disappoints. I realized this trip that the gift shop is very well priced. We made more memories this week then we have all month. Thank you to the polite staff and courteous groundskeepers.

Nice place specially for families, comparing with the fee it’s really high. With drive through only they must cut the price to 1/2. I paid 128$ for one car !!!

Lower the expectation and this is quite a nice wildlife safari / zoo. I will admit this is probably not a place to come if you are a adult because the animals are the basic antelope, rhino, zebras. Ostriches, and etc. I saw a lot of car tailgating or rushing by and later on probably come on Google to complain that it boring and not enough animals (maybe if you werent in a rush you will see them).While I wasnt so keen (I am in my 30s and pretty jaded), my kids (6 and 3 years old) absolutely loved the experience. I am pretty sure the whole safari heard my little screaming her head off. So my 5 star review is based on just how my kid enjoyed it and they enjoyed it a lot. So great for little people.

Animals were out and ready to have snacks! Lol Kids loved it. Ostriches are onry and dont wanna move. Lol

Great experience for the whole family. Kids will live it. The ostriches will out the heads in the window for treats. Great staff. Take your time enjoy the experience.

Great experience. However, for now it is only 4 out of 5 stars. Website did not indicate that you can not feed the animals. As a parent I thought it would be fun to feed them. But we can not. Also call ahead of time for when coupons can be used.

I loved it my kids enjoyed it it was an amazing experience I couldnt believe how huge the whole property is and most of the animals are roaming free just like their original habitat.....took about an hour tour and enjoyed every bit of it....

We have been to this location 3 times and we have never been disappointed. Visited today and had a great time. To all the people complaining about recent visits (COVID-19 obviously would change the experience a bit but I don’t think they deserve a 1 star rating). The animals are beautiful. We love the concept that they can live freely (most of them). The gift shop is also nice.

We had a good time driving around looking at the animals & food is also delicious. Gift shop has good things too!

This is VERY pricey as you pay per person instead of per vehicle but weve been here a couple times and enjoyed it. The park is huge and there are a ton of animals to see. I really liked the guidebook they provided since we couldnt feed the animals right now due to the pandemic. The animals near the gift shop were fun to watch up close after our long cruise around the park. Overall, its a nice outing every once in awhile.

Definitely recommend for something fun to do from the safty and comfort of your own vehicle. It was a nice drive my 2 year old love it!

It generally takes an hour to an hour and a half to drive through once. Visitors are welcome to travel through the Wildlife Ranch as many times as they would like during their visit. The only exception is visitors cannot leave and then come back later that day. The Walk-A-Bout area is included. While visiting times vary from visitor to visitor, we safely suggest at least five hours, which also allows for lunch at the Safari Camp Grill. The animals are not vicious. However, the animals are still “wild.” Remember, you enter the park at your own risk. They know every vehicle gets a free container of feed, and they are not bashful in looking for it.

FYI make sure you look at your receipt before you leave the ranch my kids and I visited the ranch today and they charged me for 3 kids instead of 2. I didn’t notice it until I took a look at my receipt when I got home. I called them and all they could say was sorry our policy states no refunds. Which I understand but that mistake was on y’all!

Will definitely do it again!!!! The staff were very helpful I loved all the animals especially the zebras the giraffes the hippo well all the animals were fascinating especially the ostriches ️️️ it was mine and my kids first time going was amazing here!!! I definitely recommend it

The place was full of animals. It was awesome. The gift shop prices were very reasonable. We bought 4 items at a good price. The food was good also.

Highly recommend!! A really cool experience. Usually you can feed the animals but at the moment because of corona you cant.

This is my first time back in 6 years. I really enjoyed the improvements I like the fact that now the park is larger than it was before and that there are a few new animals to see. I really like the fact that you can still get down and have a snack. It was nice that the snack bar was open. I really appreciate this location and how well fed the animals are. I think that its a great thing to do with kids especially now since there are very few museums open. Dont drive too fast and if you do go through a second time because its a really great experience. Stop by and see the giraffes the monkeys and the lemurs on your way out.

We have been here in the past and didnt really enjoy it because they seemed to have very little animals. This time when we went we had a BLAST and lots of animals to watch and see along the way. It was a nice little drive.

This was a great experience. Plenty of wild animals and an opportunity to feed them and see them up close. Initially animals were skeptical in coming close to the car but after while they finally came close enough to drop the food near them and enjoy them eat it. Really good for kids to enjoy the wildlife in their habitat. No one has to get off the car and just drive a steady pace enjoying the animals. There is a petting zoo area near the exit where you can touch & play with selected animals. Overall fun experience and highly recommended.

What a wonderful way to spend a day with my husband. The animals are absolutely stunning.

Awesome spot to spend a few hours. Lots of interesting animals. About as close to a real African safari as you can get without going to Africa.

We visited the ranch about 15 years ago and loved it. We went back this weekend and I can’t believe how much they have added! It was even more amazing this time. The facility was super clean and animals are well cared for. My child loved it and we had a blast. Keep up the great work!

With Covid you are not allowed to feed the animals but it was still fun and to drive through. Really enjoyed it!

Its a bit pricey for all the hoofed animals, the giraffes, the 1 rhino & the emus/ostriches. Feeding the ostriches at the end is definately the big attraction. NBWR desperately needs crowd/car control in that last area as people get impatient waiting for there turn.

Great little getaway for the family while safely keeping your distance. You cant feed the animals right now, but theyre still fun to watch as you drive by. Grill is open - food is decent, freshly made. Gift shop is also open - no good way to keep your distance so you have to constantly be aware of people standing near you and trying not to touch store items too much. All in all, our family enjoyed the outing here!

Its ok. I know that covid changes things. I came with my family a few years ago. Back then you paid per person but each person got small bags to feed the animals which made the full experience fun. This time you pay full price but dont get to feed the animals. I understand that the current circumstances have changed at the moment but I feel it would be fair to give a discount on prices since we dont get to feed the animals. Feeding the animals was what enticed to approach visitors and be more visible. In this visit we really didnt get to see many of the animals. And of the animal that we did get to see it was at a far distance and to very photo genetic. My recommendation is unless they offer a discount price I would wait until they let you feed the animals again if you really want to see the animals up close.

My wife and I really enjoyed our trip here. The staff was great, the animals were amazing. Unfortunate, we couldn’t spot the zebras, but the ostriches made up for it.

Such a fun experience and covid friendly. The kids were amazed. I like this so much better then zoos because the animals aren’t caged. Looking forward to you back again.

Super disappointed! Please save your money and go elsewhere. Paid about $80 plus food to get in. When you get in you see deer and goats a few miles deer and goats.. a few more miles deer and goats... I literally paid all that to see 99% deer and a goats. Just go to the zoo. Its cheaper and you see way more animals. Never again.

Go early this awesome place fills up by noon! Everyone is very friendly and helpful. Saw so many animals Ive never seen before! Great safety precautions in place due to COVID. We will definitely be back.

Fun area to take family. However not much animals that were worth the $ the drive.

Third time going because I have always loved this place however, this time Im very disappointed. Pretty much all we saw were goats roaming around a couple of ostriches and they looked in bad condition. No Zebras, no other animals insight. I promised my grand kids they would absolutely love it and it did not even come close to what I had told them. We paid too much money for this poor experience and will certainly never go again.

Awesome opportunity to maintain social distancing while entertaining the family. Thankful to have this experience in our area. We were able to use their pamphlet to help identify the animals we saw through our drive. Bonus points: the restroon stop mid drive for our toddler to use the potty

This is definitely a great place to bring young children, drive slowly round the large wildlife safari and listen to the young children squeezing with delite as they see the animals (providing they love animals). No lions tigers or other predators. Makes a change from the zoo.

We had so much fun!! We spent 4 hours here, arriving just after opening. We drove thru twice. The first time the animals were more active, so from our experience I recommend going early.

We had a great time, animals walked up to the car.

Very fun! We loved reading about the animals as we drove through there park. There were a decent variety of animals to see and it was awesome to see them so closely! Due to the corona virus, we werent able to get feed for the animals nor were the Gibbons out, but those small disappointments were reasonable considering the situation. Would love to revisit in the future!

We thoroughly enjoyed it. There a tons of animals that come right up to the car to be fed.It was a good value. They have a restaurant, a place to stop and stretch your legs and restrooms about halfway through.

We love coming with the kids, its always fun.

Great place to get the kids out of the house, especially during covid-19. Great to see animals in their natural habitat. We loved the walkabout too and had a picnic there.

Only giving this place 4/5 stars because as of 9/5/20, they are not allowing visitors to feed the animals due to the pandemic.Cleanliness is 5/5, the country side is gorgeous, and the animals are awesome! You must come for a visit if you are in the SA area, even more so if you have children!

There was a bit of rain when we went but that didnt mean that the animals werent out. Great for bringing your kids especially if theyre young to look at the animals. Also bathrooms were very clean.

Great little adventure for the family! Good amount of animals to feed although I wish you could have the giraffes come by! The zebra signs were deceptive as there wasnt a single zebra in sight--removed from the park perhaps? Some of the animals were aggressive with eating the whole bag of food youre given, so be careful with the larger animals! Youll spend a good hour or so on the ride and then some time at the petting zoo. Unfortunately the petting zoo is hardly well kept as theres feces all over the ground clearly not being swept up.

Great place, some trails, a real nice pond sith plenty of wildlife. Theres automobile route and its really pretty. Its pretty grow so its easy to miss wildlife so keep your eyes peeled. Have fun!

Great place! Come very early! We arrived at 8:30 and were the first ones in! This allowed us to enjoy the entire part to ourselves and not have to worry about traffic, scared animals or full animals. After about ten the place gets packed and I doubt it is enjoyable at all.... The bathrooms are in the very back behind the gift shop so good luck trying to prevent your kids from trying to buy everything.

Very disappointed with the safari! Youre trapped in a line looking at mostly hoofed animals that you can no longer feed. If you were able yo feed them it may of been a little more interesting but for $80 for two adults and one child money is better spent doing something fun.

Wow this place us absolutely AMAZING, HUGE and BEAUTIFUL. My niece was so happy. She had a blast. Let me confessed that my sister and myself enjoy every moment in here. We can not wait to come back. The restaurant is nice and clean, the prices are accesibles. AMAZING PLACE. You are going to love it.

Unique experience that is hard to come by. Definitely recommended for families looking for a little adventure! You simply have to drive thru and if you’re brave enough feed the ostriches who are not car shy LOL We had a blast.I was tempted to take away one star because we did go when it was May and this was when all the COVID stuff was emerging so we actually weren’t given food to feed the animals and were told not to feed them anything. I am glad they were concerned about the animals, but you would think they would at least discount their prices, which they did not.Now I see they advise customers on their website what to expect with adjustments they’ve made, so that’s appreciated. I just chuck it up to bad luck on my end. Also, I am sure businesses are just as confused as everyone else with all this going on. It was about $70.00 total for me, my wife and my son (under 12).We had a blast and we like the fact you can endlessly drive thru the ranch! We made two loops and got some pretty cool pics and videos. Wish we could’ve fed the animals, but hopefully there will be a next time, we still had fun. Definitely recommended!

Great family outing during covid. The ranch is beautiful.

Such a fun place to visit. We went kid free and had a blast! Ostriches can be aggressive so be careful.

My wife and I really enjoyed it. If you go at the right time (early and not too hot out) you can have a relaxing pace and experience. The animals will be more active and you can spend a little more time in each area. Seems a little pricey, but taking in consideration the expenses of the facility, it is pretty fair.

Second time here and it did not disappoint. Great value for the time we spent. A fun outing with the grandkids. Got there early and the animals were up and feeding. The rhinos were too far away other than we wouldve liked to have been able to see the kangaroos up.close too. Everything else was great and weather good before it got too hot.

Super relaxing got there early before the crowds. Loved the Lemur island. COVID-19 clean! Friendly staff. Kind of sad due to Covid we cant feed the animals but that didnt take away from a great morning! I did hear families complaining about the rules in place right now due to Covid so always check the website before visiting.

During the pandemic, not many animals were near the cars. But the first time I came here, it was so fun!! I loved it! This attraction is perfect during the pandemic too.

A train ride to go around the wildlife ranch - purchase some food for the animals. It’s soOo exciting to see these animals up close and personal - my kids had a blast!! Some of these animals get real close, but they’re very friendly and just want to eat ;)I wish the train ride was longer and more animals please. We had fun!!

Worth every penny. Even without feeding the animals directly, this was a terrific COVID-19 outing. There are tons of wild animals - far more than I had expected to see. A full drive through the park can take up to an hour and a half. Then, at the end, there is another half hour walking-tour of other exotic animals in very nice, large habitat cages. The staff are ample throughout the park. They provided a full color brochure with pictures of all the animals, which also includes descriptions and background information of each, So you can identify and learn about each breed as you progress through the tour.Taking your own snacks and drinks is welcomed. There are also picnic tables available. Everything is social-distancing safe.I highly recommend this activity, if you are suffering from cabin fever and looking to get out of the house.

Loved the experience!! The food to feed animals was given by the employees while purchasing the tickets. They give you clear instructions and a map to follow. The staff were friendly and helpful.You can drive the car and feed animals. Read all the instructions before entering each section of the Safari as some animals might bite and be aggressive and you are not supposed to feed. Overall, I love the experience and I definitely recommend it to anyone who visits San Antonio!!

Came to this place during COVID times and it was nice and great nature views but none of the animals were at the vehicles and a lot of the areas there was no animals so it was pretty bunk. During our visit we couldn’t pet or feed the animals ( there were none to feed even if we could) but we still had to pay full price of $25 per adult and $15 per child regardless of the limitations. I will not be returning.

When visiting during the summer, try to arrive early while the safari animals are active.Since the onset of the Coronavirus pandemic visitors are not allowed to feed the animals. The wildlife ranch staff drive around frequently and distribute corn and feed to keep the animals interested and near the road. The Zebras however like to hide and can easily blend into Hill Country brush. Keep a sharp eye out for them.

The people working here are amazing, friendly and helpful. I wasnt really expecting so many animals or for them to come so close to our car but they did. It was exciting and fun even for us adults! We will definitely be coming back

It is cool to see African animals in South Texas, I bet its really fun during non covid time when you can interact with the animals

A lot of the excitement from doing the drive thru safari comes from being able to feed the animals. They are not currently allowing anyone to feed the animals and admission is still the same price. We went a year ago and I feel like the variety of animals was better then too. Under normal circumstances would give a 4-5 star rating as we really enjoyed it the first time we went. The kids just werent as interested due to not being able to feed the animals. Will likely go again in the future but will be after all the Covid precautions are removed.

A great place to take the family while practicing social distancing! You cant feed the animals BUT the ostriches will still come up to your window to say hi. Staff is super friendly and attentive. Over all a great place to hang out with the animals!

No feeding allowed due to covid but it was still a fun experience! Got there as soon as they open to avoid the crowds. Loved that we get to see the giraffes so closely at the walkabout.Nice selection of merchandise at the gift shop. Midway rest stop is another good feature.

Pretty nice. First time here in 30 years. Totally different and totally awesome!

This place is really fun and has a lot of cool animals! Normally they let you feed them from your car but during covid they have stopped that. However they put the food for the animals near the road so you pretty much still get to see all of them when youre driving through. They are not at all shy. They also have a really cool lemur island as well as some other cool lemur and monkey enclosures. The restaurant also serves good food with very reasonable prices and has awesome outdoor seating. There is a peacock that likes to hang around the outdoor seating area.

Its amazing to see the animals so close on the safari.. you can pull over and take pictures of the animals.. just really be careful because they will come right up to the car or cross the road your driving on..

Such an awesome place to go to! A petting zoo, but be careful.... With some of the animals - zebra, ostrich, etc. Just use common sense guys! The animals are absolutely beautiful! also Im so very happy that they are dedicated to preserving some of these extinct, soon to be extinct, etc. Just a gorgeous place for gorgeous animals....

It was fun going back after several years, wasn’t really pleased with our experience paying over $70 I would expect all the animals to be present, unfortunately I felt some animals weren’t available when we went. With COVID going on the experience is way different your not allowed to feed the animals anymore, and the petting zoo I didn’t see it open either. It’s not the same anymore. I guess it’s okay if you wanna get out of the house and blow off your money. Really disappointed.

What can you even say about this place! It was truly an experience! Do buy the food by the entrance. Feeding those wild animals and having them walk right up to you is quite the experience. The fact that you can keep looping around to see these animals how many ever time you want is amazing too!

This is definitely worth it if you A) go EARLY. Dont bother arriving after 11:00am even if the weather is cool because by that time the animals are full and they arent interested in eating. B) Give yourselves plenty of time. They recently expanded part of the park that adds and extra half hour but it is totally worth it. You can see lots of emus, ostriches, and giraffes. If you get to this section before noon the giraffes will be closer to you for photos. Also, there is a picnic place right after the giraffe section with good ice cream, fudge, and clean bathrooms. You can bring your own food and eat in the covered area. The petting zoo at the end is alright. The only cool things worth are seeing are petting the goats. Also, there is a giraffe enclosure behind the cafe, dont miss that because the giraffes are very close and you can take great photos with them. Dont forget to go on to the San Antonio tourism website and under deals save the $3 off/ticket coupon in their coupon book you can download as a PDF. Enjoy!

I hate normal zoos, but this place is amazing. Visited a decade ago and its still just as good. Animals are happy (unlike zoos/cages) and well taken care of. Able to roam/run almost as if they were wild. Not clamoring for food from us, so they arent starved for tourist handouts. The entire place is extremely clean.Zoos normally depress me, the sadness in the animals eyes from captivity is overwhelming for me. That is not the case here. The giraffes, maybe, but they at least seemed content, not sad.In short, any age will enjoy and not at the expense of the animals.

This is a complete scam, my family of 4 spent about $120 (without the $3 food bags) and the whole place barely had any animals. It was boring and definitely wasn’t worth the money at all, some old man gave me his bag of leftover food for the animals and we didn’t even use the whole thing either because the animals were so far away/there was barely any. I do not recommend going to this place AT ALL until they lower the prices by A LOT or improve the whole thing. I wish I spent this amount of money elsewhere.

This was our third time traveling from Alaska to the San Antonio area, and third time visiting the Wildllife ranch. It is always a great family activity, and my animal obsessed daughter has loved it since she was 2. We were able to go down one of the roads that had been previously closed on our two previous trips. It was wonderful to see more animals that we hadnt seen before. We will be back again.
