Admission is $60 for non-annual pass holders/members per vehicle and $32 for annual pass holders/members per vehicle.

This is the second time the zoo has extended the drive-thru experience.

“We still want our guests to feel safe from the comfort and security of their own vehicles as we wait to hear from on state and local governments on if we can reopen the zoo to normal traffic,” said Tim Morrow, president & CEO San Antonio Zoo. “Drive Thru Zoo has allowed families the opportunity to see the zoo in a new while creating new memories during this unprecedented time. Their support of this new experience has allowed us to continue caring for the animals and bring some of our furloughed team members back.”
