Bayou Wildlife Zoo

Awesome Zoo! You get to ride on a safari like adventure for 35-45 minutes and see hundreds of animals that are living their best life in wide open acreage. The animals come up to the safari and you can feed and pet them. The guides are great and super knowledgeable.

Awesome experience. I highly recommend getting 2 feed buckets per person as you see so many animals. The tour is nice and the animals are so kind.

It was a great place to take my almost 2 year old. She had a blast. She wasn't scared of any of the animals. She wanted to love on all of them. She even came face to face with a zebra!!

Great place to have a fun family day. We went on a Saturday with no wait time to purchase tickets. You have to purchase tickets at the location as they don't offer advance ticket purchases on their website. Adult ticket cost $23.53 and children cost $14.12. You have the option to take a safari ride which is included with your Adult ticket purchase and the option to purchase feed buckets to feed the animals which cost $5 each. Since we went in the month of October they also have a mini haunted house to visit which was $4.69 each person. The assortment of animals is amazing and all run free. They have a petting zoo which you can pet goats, baby cows and piglets. They have a mini store to purchase snacks, drinks and souvenirs. They welcome bringing your own drinks in if you like. They No longer offer pony rides. The safari ride lasts 30 minutes and is alot of fun for everyone. The small haunted house was great and kid friendly, not super scary at all. The have covered tables to sit and wait for your safari ride and I suggest signing up for the safari ride as soon as you get there since they are only 3 trailers to take groups and the wait can be long depending on how busy they are. I waited 1 hour for my safari ride.

Took my family here earlier this month and the experience was one to remember! Great tour guide! He was very friendly and fun. He knew all about the animals, told us their cute names & really was sure to educate us on the specific nature of each animal. The petting zoo was also a very nice experience. My children got to pet & brush the goats. They fell in love with the animals and so did my husband and I! We will definitely be back soon!

My review would be 4.5 stars if I could. It's a neat place that you get right up with the animals while riding a trailer pulled behind a jeep. It allows you to get right next to these animals that are used to people and feed them. What wasn't nice was how hot the staging area was, where you wait for the next ride to come back around; so be mindful that you will most likely stand around for 20-30 minutes waiting for the next ride and it's not cooled under the barn. The other negative bit is my wife and I brought our infant son and had him in his Doona (car seat that turns into a stroller) and no one mentioned that we would have to leave the stroller at the barn until we went to get in the trailer for the ride around. Also, no one told us it would be a little rougher until after we got on the trailer so my wife was holding our son while we went down and up dips, over cattle guards and through some bumpy areas. Besides those couple things, we will definitely be back when our son is a little older. I also feel it's a little pricey for what it is, $25 per person for 1 ride around, but it is a cool experience.

We took our 1 1/2 year old granddaughter today. It was great! Lots of animals to feed. A new baby giraffe. A petting zoo. It only took about an hour and half to see everything, which is perfect for a little one out in the Texas heat.
