We've been to the drive through safari several times and have always had a great experience. This time, we decided to try The Beast - the open-air tour-guided bus. Our guide narrated almost the entire hour of our tour, making it very interesting and informative. The openness of the bus makes the animals a little more accessible than they are when you drive through in your own vehicle and it was easy for both people in the seat to feed the animals. It's not an inexpensive experience, but it's worth it, and it's a wonderful attraction for our small community. When you drive through with your own vehicle, you have an opportunity to purchase the zoo admission at a discount with a combo-package. However, when you tour the safari on The Beast, there is no combo available to attend the zoo. This was my only disappointment. PS - the bus was full of people during the tour - the group photo shown here was only our family photo op after the tour. :)

My kids LOVE this place! Although it's not very big it never disappoints! My husband and I got to chaperone 2 back to back field trips with our son's Kindergarten class then again with our daughter's 3rd grade class the following day. We all had a great time!

Great place to visit. Grandson loved every minute of it. Sooooo much better than our local zoo. Animals here seemed much more active and actually appear glad to see people. Well worth the money spent to get in. A little expensive. But worth it. Only down fall there is. Is that they don't offer a family pass or family season pass. I'd of gladly dropped a $150 for a family season pass. Drive thru park was pretty cool also. But not as impressive as the animal park. All in all. Good time. And worth the trip.

Cool zoo, feeding the giraffes were pretty fun! Train is skippable, not much to see there and it was so slow, you can save some feeding stuff for the drive thru Safari too! Definitely recommend checking this place out if you’re in the area! Fun activity for kids and families.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.
