Lions … Tigers …  and Servals? What’s a Serval? Take a walk on the wild side at the Austin Zoo and learn more about them and other mammals, primates, reptiles, amphibians, and domestic animals. Get up close and personal with deers, goats, llamas, sheep, ostriches, alpacas, peacocks, and visit over 350 animals for a native Texas wildlife family experience you won't soon forget. While you’re there, enjoy a pony and train ride. What started out as a goat ranch that housed pigs, deer, donkeys, ponies, and a few exotic animals blossomed into a full-fledged non-profit rescue zoo that assists animals in need through rescue, rehabilitation and education, now representing more than 100 different species, each with their own rescue story to tell.

Instead of a taxi, go green like most of Austin and hop on a pedi-cab. Whether you're headed to a club or need to take a tour of the city, Capital Pedicab will provide the pedal power to get you there.

Create a masterpiece at Ceramics Bayou, a paint-your-own pottery studio where you can choose from more than 400 art pieces to decorate and take home. Voted one of the top five family outings in Austin.
