This is a great park especially in the cooler off-season of October. The drive through was sectioned into different parts with each featuring different animals. Was surprised that we actually drove by white rhinos who were free to roam around their section. One of the highlights was an 18' giraffe that weighed 3,300 lbs but there were a great many... more

My best friend and I checked it out while down in Florida visiting family. Such a great experience! The animals were so interactive, the park is well maintained and the whole experience was a blast! Can't wait to go again! more

This place is truly great to spend an entire day. I paid just about $50 for three people (with their internet coupon). The price includes the drive-thru safari, minature golf, paddle boats, mini amusement rides, and a cute splashing zone (big enough for parents and children to enjoy). I didn't buy food there, although they do have a huge picnic/pavilion... more

A great family trip. The tour starts as you enter the reserve with almost all animals free roaming. This means to expect close encounters. Rhinos may in fact cross in front of your car and an ostrich at your window looking in! The lions are now enclosed in a pen you drive around. But, years ago they were open and... more

We loved it! Even our two teenagers who take a lot to get them excited enjoyed Lion Country Safari. If you stay at the KOA (KOA site gives you free tickets to the park) which is right next door you will hear the Lions ROAR! No kidding! I was walking my dog and the lions started roaring, and she couldn't... more

Here is a jewel that doesn't lose it's luster. The park was established as a place for Americans to get up close and personal with wildlife from around the world in a safe, well managed environment tended by people who provide extraordinary care for the world's vanishing wildlife populations. Here the people are in captivity as they drive at a... more

Took a day trip with my girlfriend from Ft. Lauderdale and had a great time. The animals were very outgoing and friendly, not the usual sedated wildlife that you sometimes encounter on theme-park safaris. We had close encounters with an ostrich (who we thought was going to attack the car) as well as a giraffe. The theme park area itself... more

We just went to Lion Country Safari this past weekend. My two sons, ages 4 and 9, had a great time! The safari is great - and during cooler weather, the animals are so active. We had close encounters with rhinos and giraffes. We also had an onstrich come right up to the car and start pecking on the glass!... more

My husband and I drove from Miami with our 1 year old and we had a great time. My husband and I enjoyed it more than most zoos we've been to. I stopped to let an ostrich cross the road, and instead, it leaned onto my hood and started pecking at the little black peg on the hood that shoots... more

While talking about my upcoming vacation in Florida with coworkers, I was told about Lion Country Safari in Loxahatchee. My husband and I had visited the drive through safari at Six Flags in NJ a few years ago and loved it, so we added Lion Country Safari to our itinerary. We are so glad that we did! As previous people... more
