Zoos across Texas have been offering webcams, Facebook Lives, and other virtual features, but one is taking it a step further while still maintaining safe social distancing measures. The San Antonio Zoo now has a drive-thru experience that allows guests to observe their favorite animals from the comfort of their own vehicle.
Presented by Broadway Bank, this Drive-Thru experience allows animal lovers to enjoy the San Antonio Zoo like never before. You’ll see most of what the zoo has to offer while maintaining a safe social distance from others.

Snack stations are set up along the way to keep your herd fed and happy. Nachos, cotton candy, popcorn, bottled drinks, and other concession stand favorites are perfect to much on while you watch the animals do some grazing of their own.

The zoo has even put together a playlist you can listen to on the drive-thru experience. Just like a guided tour, you’ll receive detailed narration of each exhibit – only this is in the comfort of your own vehicle!
