We had a great time staff was friendly and knowledgeable we got to meet a baby ostrich and feed the giraffe very cool experience. The park is very clean and we’ll keep the animals are free to roam the grounds as they please and eat and drink whenever very peaceful. I would definitely recommend this place.

This experience was wonderful!! We got to see so many animals close to the vehicle, park is well taken care of. We got to feed the giraffe at the end. Available bathrooms there as well as a gift shop. A truly hidden gem, if you are looking for something to do outside of the theme parks, you shoulf definitely check this out!

During the ride, look out for over 100 animals—including zebras, white-tailed deer, and bison. There's also a huge pond that's home to alligators, and an area where you can hand-feed giraffes.
  • Travel at your own pace on a self-guided safari drive
  • Look out for over 150 animals, including zebras and giraffes
  • Admission is included so you don't have to wait in ticket lines
  • The park gives you the opportunity to feed giraffes by hand (for an additional fee)

What To Expect

Make your own way to the Wild Florida Safari Drive Thru Park for a self-driving adventure. Take your time and enjoy the comforts of your own vehicle without having to squeeze onto a tour bus or follow a group schedule.

Look out for the many exotic residents of the park that you wouldn’t normally be able to see in Florida, including zebras, wildebeest, oryx, and much more. Stop wherever you like (and wherever it’s safe) to take photos as you’re in control behind the wheel. Enjoy hand-feeding the giraffes if you like (extra cost), and get admission to the Gator Park too, where you can see alligators.

Up close animal encounters

Dawn_M, Jul 2026
This was an awesome experience. Got to see a lot of animals up close while safely in our vehicle. Great non theme park activity in the Orlando area. I have recommended to others.

Good experience

Paul_R, Jul 2026
It's not a quick experience (need to drive slow), but well worth the time. Go when feeding if possible!

Unique experience & great value.

mina_k, Jul 2026
Great value here vs at the venue. These tickets basically gave us admission to the gator park free with Safari admission. Seeing the animals up close (even if they were only prey animals, no predators) is such a different experience than seeing them at a zoo. It was so nice to be in our own vehicle with AC on a hot summer day. The gator park had so many interesting animals and we saw gators going after raw chicken up close at the gator show. It was so worth visiting!! Highly recommend!

Feed the giraffe

Catharine_R, Jul 2026
Nice to see animals closer than you can in a zoo. You can feed the giraffe at the entrance for $5.00. My grandson loved that. Employees are very nice.

Alot of animals to see....

marty_c, Jul 2026
Alot of animals to see. Nice place and easy to find. Nice place to take the family or a partner. Giraffe and ostrich was cool.

A break from the crowded theme parks

April_R, Jun 2026
Make sure you wear insect repellant as partner was bitten a couple of times. Well worth the visit. Lots to see and opportunities to pull over to take a picture (from inside your car) then the gator park which you walk around, very good. Get some gator food to feed them, fun to do.

Must See!

CHRISTINA_B, Jun 2026
This was an amazing experience! The amount of animals, along with the giraffe feed was incredible. Also, their customer service was unmatched. It’s worth a visit.

Wasted Money💰

Sandy_W, Jun 2026
The safari was not what I expected it to be for $35, very very very disappointed. This should be FREE! As a family of 15+ no one was happy and to top it off not a lot of animals or they weren't out ,where is the 150 animals? The employees were GREAT!! I EXPECTED MORE FOR $35 AND $5 MORE TO FEED AN GIRAFFE.....I'LL PAST HOWEVER DID LET THE 6 KIDS PARTICIPATE. I would not suggest this !! Another thing another $37 each to do the Airboat for 9 people, $333 (I did it) but just the safari and air boat to go in the swamp a total of $1000 (very close) short a couple of dollars. Will not recommend to anyone!!

Family fun

Christina_P, May 2026
It's very nice and relaxing and good experience for the kids. Alot of bugs around. I liked the alligator park

The area was not well...

Marcia_C, May 2026
The area was not well taken care of and a lot of the watering holes were green. It would appear that over the years, the animals have lacked some care.

Drive thru nature tour

Scott_M, May 2026
This is a fun tour. The place is in great condition, animals are plenty and the people were really nice

Absolutely worth the visit!

Amazing experience at Wild Florida Drive-Thru Safari Park! Driving through and seeing the animals up close was unforgettable. Feeding the giraffe was especially awesome and definitely a highlight of the visit. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a fun and unique adventure!

Lots of bang for your buck

Nelly_N, Apr 2026
It was a great hands on experience. Feeding the giraffe was excellent. Even watching for the crossing animals was exciting.

Awesome Experience!

suzgaray, Apr 2026
Awesome wide-open experience like out in the wild. Be sure to add feeding to the Giraffes and the airboat ride is a must.

It was great we all...

Maxine_H, Apr 2026
It was great we all enjoyed seeing all the animals and most of all the baby gators my grandchildren were so excited and happy, will definitely visit again. Thank you it was a great experience.

Been to many zoos but this one well its one of a kind !

Jasmine_s, Apr 2026
Many animals not normally seen in a zoo !!! A drive thru experience in the comfort of your AC that is relaxing and exciting at the same time (; highly recommend going past the drive thru part and booking your animal Encounter and airboat ride at the second part and seeing all the happy animals there first then doing the drive through when it’s time to relax (; Food and drinks available (food when better then expected)and spots to sit and rest if needed. The animals aren’t all hiding and just laying around bored. They actually seem happy and well taken care of!!!!!

Nice

Ivelisse_B, Apr 2026
It was nice, but because of the rain it was difficult to enjoy the whole experience plus we weren’t able to touch certain animals

Spring Break 26

Ebony_M, Apr 2026
Great experience! Bold animals approaching the car lol. Easy access around the trail. We will definitely visit again.

Fantastic Wildlife Safari

Desmond_D, Apr 2026
Great day exploring all about the animals and a beautiful safari getting right up close to them in their habitat. Totally recommend.

The park was a lot of fun...

Mallory_K, Apr 2026
The park was a lot of fun and we saw so many animals! Some of them were up close! The giraffe feeding was a cool experience.

Wild Florida Car Ride

James_D, Apr 2026
Great experience. One of the best recent tours. Slow drive with lots of animals. Always a pleasure to work with Viator.

Wonderful Time

Jennifer_G, Apr 2026
This is a great experience for kids and adults. If you love animals and adventure, then this is the place to go. Drive through safari is awesome, Get close to animals without leaving the comforts of your car. After you can feed a giraffe. Park your car and you can see other animals as well. Feed gators and birds. Also don’t forget to take an airboat ride. See gators in their natural habitat along with birds as well,
