The Houston zoo is a fantastic zoo. We've been a member for the last 7 or 8 years. Our kids love to go several times a year, and the membership pays for itself after your second visit.

The animals seem well-cared for, and the zoo staff are friendly and knowledgeable. They've got a good variety of animals, with some really great environments, particularly the gorillas.

Every year they do a special day where the park is open only for zoo members called zoobilee. They give out popsicles, have face painting, music, activities, games, etc

The zoo is located inside a phenomenal park area, that is worth exploring on its own. This is one of my favorite places in Houston.
