Over 40 species thrive across three sprawling ranch pasture habitats, including zebras, giraffes, rhinos, ostriches, wildebeests, gazelles, and Texas longhorns. Every vehicle receives a complimentary bag of animal feed at the gate, offering an unforgettable thrill for children as gentle zebras and curious emus approach the car window for a snack. Because families tour from inside their heated vehicle at their own leisurely pace, it is an unbeatable winter day trip regardless of cold or damp weather. After the drive, families can explore the walkable Walk-A-Bout area featuring the Giraffe Barn, ring-tailed lemurs, the Safari Camp Grill, and clean accessible family restrooms. ## Similar picks in San Antonio - [Natural Bridge Wildlife Ranch Autumn Drive-Through Texas Safari](https://grassyknees.com/san-antonio/activities/natural-bridge-wildlife-ranch-autumn-drive-through-texas-safari--listing-c9f6fedcd608b0f61ad511b2) — Nov 23 – Nov 29 · 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM · Natural Bridge Wildlife Ranch · All ages · From $22 · checked Nov 5.
