Petting zoos and train rides are both pretty epic activities, so combining them makes for a truly unforgettable experience. Wonder World Cave and Adventure Park in San Marcos offers precisely this unique adventure, allowing passengers to interact with and even feed deer, miniature horses, and several other adorable critters while on-board.

Wonder World Park is home to the world's first-ever show cave, affording visitors firsthand access to a vast underground landscape for over 105 years. This is the only earthquake-formed cave in the entire nation!
