Stop at 2nd Info center for direction on where Buffalo and Donkeys are. Go to main visitor center early, it gets very busy!

Beautiful, scenic drive! The kids were fascinated the whole drive through Needles Highway and they about lost their minds with all the buffalo on the road wandering around in the Wildlife Loop! Definitely will do this again!
