Visited the zoo for Spring Break 2026. A terrible experience. We paid $45 per ticket. Half the animals were not in their exhibit. Had to park four (4) blocks away. Just one (1) train was operating. The tickets should have been half-price. Some of the restrooms were dirty and no handsoap. Houston Zoo, if you know that half of the animals are under veterinarian care and are not in their exhibit, ticket prices should reflect that.

So big & so many things to see! The downside is that there is not enough parking to accommodate all the people who have bought tickets. took us an hour to find a parking spot. Sooo crowded. They need to figure that out. Also the construction kept some animals hiding/not available to see so that was kind of annoying, but what can you do. Otherwise, we had a great experience & didn’t even get to see everything that was available!! It is beautiful, well-kept, & I appreciate trash cans being available everywhere.

Our visit to the Houston Zoo was extremely disappointing. Traffic delays caused by blocked roads and traffic management made us wait over an hour, and there was no available parking. Overcrowding led to stressful situations, including arguments over spaces, and too many tickets were sold compared to parking spots. Staff offered little assistance with wagon rentals or directions, and the zoo was so crowded it was difficult to enjoy the exhibits. With no refunds available, we won’t return after this frustrating experience.

The kids always have a great time other than trying to find parking it is an opportunity you need to stop and see in Houston

Overpay walk just to see all the animals sleeping. No parking during spring break. Tourist trap to take your money.
