Some people complain that it is too expensive. Really? How much does it take to feed these alligators? How much do you spend of cigarettes and beer? I took my parents who are 58 years old and not really in shape. We did the smaller line section (blue line) and they were able to complete it with a bit of... More

The kids had a blast at the Alligator Farm, even the big ones.lol. Our favorite part was watching the Alligator's get feed and the reptile show. The keepers were very knowledgable and friendly. More

This is actually a zoological attraction, not just an alligator pit. Their bird rookery is filled with hundreds of free nesting birds from March through mid-summer. Regular visits will let you follow the birds through nest-building, courtship, hatching of the young, etc. An outstanding experience. More

This alligator farm is adequate and has been here for many years but does not compare to Orlando's Alligaor Park More
