What's It Like to Drive a Convertible Through a Wildlife Safari? 🚗🦒

Let me just say—you’ve gotta try this at least once! 😍🙌 Located at Fossil Rim Wildlife Center, this drive-through safari offers an unforgettable up-close encounter with incredible animals—all from the comfort (and thrill!) of your own car. 🎟️ Ticket Options: They offer two types of tickets: 1️⃣ Self-Guided Drive-Through – You drive your own vehicle and can feed some of the animals 🥕. 2️⃣ Guided Tour – You ride in one of the park’s vehicles; feeding isn’t allowed, and you might see slightly fewer species. Honestly? Go with the self-drive option! It’s more flexible, personal, and interactive—plus, halfway through there’s a rest stop where you can stretch, shop for souvenirs, and even pet goats 🐑❤️! 🦌 The Experience: At the entrance, each car gets a bag of approved animal feed—and trust me, it’s plenty! Windows down (or top down if you're in a convertible 😎), you slowly cruise through expansive pastures where giraffes, zebras, ostriches, antelopes, and more roam freely. Feeling a giraffe’s gentle nuzzle as it leans in for a snack is pure magic 🤤🦒. For animal lovers, this is absolute heaven! 💡 Tips: Go early or later in the day—animals are more active! Keep windows mostly up around ostriches (they’re a bit bold 😅). Don’t rush—enjoy the slow roll and soak in the views. Convertible or sunroof? Even better for photos and feeling the breeze! 🌤️📸 Whether you’re with family, friends, or going solo, Fossil Rim delivers a day of joy, wonder, and unforgettable memories. It’s easily one of the best outdoor experiences near Dallas. Have you been? Share your favorite safari moment below! 👇 #FossilRim #DriveThroughSafari #DallasDayTrip #TexasTravel #WildlifeAdventure
