Gatorland

My wife and I have lived in Florida our entire lives and we have never been here. It is the place you think of most when you know Florida. We finally took the kids one day as a random day trip and it did not disappoint. We got there closer to noon and wish we would have gotten there sooner. Next time we will. There is a ton to do for all ages. They have a splash pad and playground for kids. The buggy ride is crazy fun! The zip lining looks awesome and we are doing it next time we go. My son got to sit on top of a gator and get a picture. He had a blast. We have told all of our family and friends about it and are planning a trip back during spring break!

This place totally rules!!! Are you in Orlando and wanting to see gators up close? This is the spot! They have baby gators, white gators, giant gators - you can feed them, get within inches of them behind the glass, and even take photos with them. There were so many things to see and do, we easily spent 4 hours here. We loved the aviary which had loads of bird you could feed. You’ll want to have extra budget beyond the admission tickets since it costs extra to take photos with the gators up close or to buy gator food. But each of these experiences is totally worth it in my opinion. They have food and drinks you can buy while you’re there and the gift shop has loads of options. Every one of the staff we talked with was very friendly and made you feel welcome. Highly recommend a visit here!!!

This place offers a truly unique experience! You can buy fish and feed the alligators yourself—watching them snap up food up close is thrilling. The park is huge, with a variety of animals in addition to the impressive number of alligators. Definitely worth a visit!

This park 100% lived up to expectations. The exhibits were easy to access, the variety of animals was a surprise and the facilities are well cared for. The food was good, the shade plentiful and the number and frequency of shows during the day provided an easy way to engage with the gators!

This is my fifth time here, spread out over 30 years, and the attractions are great. If you love "swamp puppies" like I do, you'll have a great time. There are also a few shows included with general admission with very entertaining and knowledgeable handlers. You will also see birding exhibits with many natural birds visiting the swamp throughout and snakes. Great for 1/4 day to half of day for adults or children. They also have a nice nature hike through elevated swamp boardwalk (these swampy boardwalks are my favorite). You can feed the baby crocs and goats and visit the included petting zoo. It's a fully featured gator exhibit, and you will not be disappointed visiting.
