SeaWorld - San Antonio
Great time and lots of stuff for kids to do and stay cool. Didn't feel overwhelmed by the size of the park. Good help and wonderful shows.

Natural Bridge Wildlife Ranch
Loved this place.
We have been twice and took the grandkids. Different both times. The animals come right up to the car, amazing, and a little scary, lol. To see these wild animals up so close is quite an experience. They all appeared to be well taken care of, and fed several times a day. We saw a group of amimas go on a -run-, it was like being in Africa! Never knew zebras have brown teeth, lol! We all felt it was well worth the price.

-Military family, North Carolina
SeaWorld - San Antonio
Our family goes to Sea World every two years. We love going to an attraction that has animals, shows, rides, and a water park all in one.
