This is a very expensive activity, but if you know that going in and are agreeable to the cost, then it's a fantastic once in a lifetime experience type place. In fact, you might have several once in a lifetime experiences! The cost is about $25 per person, and then additional "tokens" for activities at $3 each token. Most activities (feeding, holding, interacting with animals) are 1-6 tokens each person. There are ALOT of fish tanks where you can pay one token ($3) to feed fish. If you are not careful, your kids can go thro... read more

Fun place for the family - we booked a birthday party package a little one and had a great time. The place has grown a lot since we went to it when it first opened, it's a small zoo now.

I absolutely love this place! Definitely recommend to any families, especially with any young ones who love animals. They have great interactive experiences such as feeding and petting animals. They have a game room and multiple concession stands for snacks. They also have a gift shop for memorabilia and a bounce house if the kids still have plenty of energy, it includes tables and chairs for parents to sit back and relax while the children play. I love it here, stayed for hours until baby got sleepy. Definitely earned 5 sta... read more

Total waste of time and money. But Since we had the pogo pass , it was checked off the list. To view any information you have to scan a QR code and need tik tok. Which not everyone has. Everything requires a token or several to feed or touch etc. The offerings are small and I mean tiny. The floors were being actively mopped as people and kids were walking . They put up signs but definitely need a dry swifter type after the mopping . There's a small bounce house inside . And a tiny arcade. We didn't waste any mon... read more

The San Antonio Aquarium is more of a petting zoo than it is an aquarium. We did have a lot of fun as the petting zoo area provides close encounters with Lemurs, kangaroo, penguins, and a sloth. Our 12 year old daughter loved the experience. They gave a large indoor area and a small outdoor area. We spent almost 3 hours at the aquarium. Highly recommend for children up to 13 years old.

Probably the worst aquarium or zoo or whatever they want to call it that I have ever been to. I am walking this mess of a habitat, better word containment and I am appalled by what they consider suitable living spaces for these living creatures.

I was really looking forward to coming here, as this is one of the only locations in the world that you can hold lemurs. I LOVE lemurs. After convincing my fiancé to come here on our trip, we had to pay upwards of $80 for tokens to be able to hold these lemurs. After waiting for two hours due to lemur behavioral issues, the zookeepers disappeared in the back and refused to answer any questions. They kept saying the next keeper would "be right back", but never came back. We were put off for an extra hour before we finally gav... read more

Employees are rude especially the girl up front. Tokens are $3 each for animal experiences. I bought 5 and took 2 home with me. Not worth it. The place was very dirty for just opening. The animal cages are small and unkept. Surprised to see they had penguins now which was really sad.
