Lion Country Safari

Our second time visiting. First time was 10 years before. Was everything that we remembered. Had a great time. Picked the perfect day, as it was cloudy and a bit cool so even the lions were out and active. Was able to get many great photos. Almost seemed like all of the animals were trained to pose for us.

Oh. My. Goodness. I was visiting my aunt who lives in the area and she wanted to bring me here. I have been to other drive through safari places, some where you can feed the animals, some where you can not feed the animals. This falls into the category where you can not feed the animals, which I like because the animals stayed away from your car. And they had lions! And rhinoceroses! And so many more! The drive through took a lot of time as there was so much to look at. Then you can leave. OR you can park, and do the walking tour! They are doing some renovations so be aware of that! There is a water park, but neither my aunt nor I were interested in that. There was an absolutely cute show with a few birds and a handler. It was amazing. I highly recommend for anyone in the area.

Such a fun experience! The animals were active and were close to the road which allowed everyone to get a good look at them. The drive through was fun for everyone and then exploring the rest of the park was equally enjoyable. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The water park looked very fun(we didn’t go this time but will be back). The little boat tour with Charlotte was great and seeing all the other animals inside the park felt like going to the zoo. Highly recommend!

We went o day trip from Miami, with our 8 years old. It was an amazing experience. We must enjoyed drive-through, paddle boat and staff's attitude. To have a complete experience you should have at least 4h to fully enjoy.

Excellent experience with a drive through Safari and optional medium-sized amusement park at the end. Definitely one of the unique activities in all of Florida, if not the USA. The drive through Safari takes about one to two hours to complete (your individual time spent watching the animals is up to you, can be longer or shorter). Large variety of animals. Many of them have no problem walking up to the cars or stopping on the road. Very fun to watch. The Safari is great for kids, or older less mobile people, or both. As for the amusement park, this is great for kids, generally 2yrs old to 10 yrs old. Variety of rides, food, ice cream, and more animal exposures. There is also a water park for little kids.
