Houston Zoo: $4 off after 4pm

If you plan to go to the zoo more than a couple of times a year it pays to be a member. If you  are actually thinking about going to the Zoo during the summer, than going in the evening makes sense. It is nice that they providing a discount. Parking is always free. I suggest riding the train while you are there! Beautiful ride!
