This wildlife park delivers a genuinely memorable experience with impressive variety and animal care that visitors consistently praise. The drive-through safari lets you feed animals right from your vehicle, and guests love how healthy and well-maintained everything appears. Beyond the safari, there's a fantastic petting zoo area with additional animal encounters available, including sloths, kangaroos, and turtles that come highly recommended. The facility is spotless, prices are reasonable, and families especially appreciate how engaging it is for all ages. The staff and owners stand out for their warmth and dedication. Multiple visitors mention how accommodating and professional they are, with one guest describing how the owner personally helped switch tickets for a special event. That personal touch seems to be part of the experience here. One important note: the drive-through safari involves some bold animals, particularly zebras and ostriches, that actively approach cars expecting food. Most visitors find this thrilling, but if you prefer a calmer experience or feel uncertain about assertive wildlife, stick to the excellent petting zoo areas where you'll still have plenty of animal interaction without the intensity.
I cannot tell you how much fun we had visiting. The animals are well taken care of and it’s clean. It’s a core memory for sure!!
