Nice place to visit with kids. African safari must visit. You can get cart ride, special places will be shown if you choose this option. Cheeta run is one of the fantastic one you should buy. Wild animal places are nice and kids enjoy.
Had a great time, seemed very clean, food was good also! Kids had a blast!
I want with my two daughters and it was a lot of fun
This place would be heaven if I we're 11, almost sorry to be an adult now. Manager and employees were helpful and attentive. Best place of its type I've ever seen. Impressive rides and party rooms, not just open spaces on the floor. Worth talking about.
It's been so long since I last went to safari land. First time I've there when I was 12 back in around June 2008
It was terrible i took my daughter for her birthday for the first time going there was an employee with a red shirt without a name tag middle aged man called me violent in front of my kids because the shortest employee that works there a female with glasses lied to me and said my child was tall enough to go on all the rides is why i perchased the unlimited pass then she said it was for the boy (my son) who was not tall enough for basically any ride there so the man with the red shirt tells me he did not call me violent then he said he didnt call me violent in which he did call me violent the short lady was marking off on the paper that my son couldnt ride the big rides my daughter could ride my experience there showed me not to bring my children or anybody else there and i will share my experience today with my friends to let them know ahead of time how the employees are but one employee david he came and smooth everything out for me but the rest of the employees was causing more problems.
Some of the games didn't fully work but other than that it was really fun!
Too loud...there should be something free for kids under 5. Its a play place...go check it out.
Great fun for 10 and younger. Prices reasonable. My son and I stayed for 6 hrs. A lot to do.
Great place for kids
Safari Land is keeping up with time. Arcade games are quite entertaining, rides are fun, and the place is sanitary. The Tiger Terror was especially exciting, not recommended for scaredy cats. Ticket prizes are quite cool, too. Recommended for 5-9 year olds. 4/5
This place is great for both kids and adults. Tons of fun, the food is good and the price wont hurt your wallet. Been coming here for about 10 years now and never get tired of it.
I love this arcade but I’m at the age where I don’t think I should be going here anymore, there are many kids rides from 10 and below & I would love more teenagers rides. I still fairly think that this arcade is fantastic!
Great time for our son's 5th bday party! Thank you to the whole team at Safari Land! Parents and kids had a blast!! Special thanks to Papito at the bar mixing great drinks for the parents, Zaira for being the most tentative hostess and to Steve for assisting in the planning and giving us great deals for us and our guests! We love Safari Land!!
I couldn't find a way to reply to your question. Nothing in particular, just overcrowded, poorly behaved children. All of which being out of your control. This was some time ago. It just came back up in my Google feed. I remember clearly. We were there with a large birthday party. The facility was nice and the staff super helpful and polite. I need to make that clear. Just more in relation to the overall experience. Thank you so much for reaching out to me!
Enjoyed our sons birthday here as a walk in group. Everyone was very helpful and the kids had a lot of fun.
It’s a little expensive for the type of games they have. They’re rides are pretty good tho. And it’s a great indoor place for kids
Safariland is a nice place to take the kids... it's like all the others(chuck e cheese, go bananas, etc). It gets pretty crowded on the weekends, so make sure to keep an eye on your kids. Nothing spectacular but it is a place for the kids to run around and play.
Nice place for kids to play n enjoy according their age category. Must go place
Had a good time there. Game prices are the cheapest I have seen for arcades. Wish there was a little more variety.
Good place for children my kids love this place !
Nice place where everyone can have fun!
Good pricing for hours of fun. But many machines are broken. Bathrooms are unclean. Parking lot is a bit sketchy. I do like the variety of prizes to choose from, even as low as 4 tickets. I don't think I will come back though. The claw machine is one of the cheating kinds, where it will open back up to drop the item you've caught. So no one will ever win lol. A low grade version of gameworks with small rides. I think Chuck cheeses is way better though for hours of cheap gaming fun for younger kids.
The place is good. The animals are totally amazing. They took a good care on them. Atleast they make more good the area to be safe to the visitors.
It's fun children's place. They gave birthday rooms. Indoor rollercoaster and pizza. We attended our friends daughter first birthday party and it was really nice!
Food was good nice variety of games and rides
Need better management
Absolutely clean. Friendly staff. Bowling, gambling, rides, bumper cars, and adult friendly with a sports viewing bar!!
A must visit place fir kids
Nice place for the family
We went bowling, on weekends it $3.50 during the week it's $2.50. A cool place to go to have fun.
Plenty of rides and games for the kids and good food too!
It is great for the kids to have fun. Rides seem pretty cool and everyone was having a pretty good time. But I am nursing and I was in shock to find out that there is no Nursing Room here in Safari Land. I asked the employee and she simply said no and that she's sorry. Not everyone feeds their baby formula.
Great place to take your kids
Rude manager and staff!
Lots of fun things to do. A little pricey, but worth a visit.
Kids had a great time. Love the indoor roller coaster the children didn’t wanna leave. Great family fun
Nice place for parties my son loves this place cool with the rollercoaster inside
Because is. The best
Love the staff great.place for families good food
spacious place with alot variety of games. food was good. highly recommended
Real nice place to take the kids and have them play games and rides. I recommend this place
Great place for kids and their parties. Had my daughter's 7th birthday and she had a blast. Rides vary by size so keep that in mind when planning. Prices are average for those establishments so be prepared to spend some cash, but is shouldn't break the bank.
Really nice
It was ok at first until my daughter and I got on the Tilt a Whirl. One of the workers told me that my daughter couldn’t get on the ride without me. So I got on the ride with her. Then my daughter wanted to go again right after she got off & another lady told me I couldn’t get on the ride with her. It’s like the staff is making up their own rules at this point. Make up your mind, either I have to attend my child on the rides or I don’t. Other than that we had a good time.
Great alternative to Chuck the mouse. Much more entertaining and the food is 1000% better!
Super fun! I was there with a 3 year old and there are not too many attractions for kids this age but she had a blast anyway. The only thing I did not like was that there were no attendants ready at every attarction so we were going back couple of times. Otherwise great 2 hours.
I really loved the virtual roller coaster where it turned you upside-down go to safari land it rocks
Pretty great came here with the fam a quite a while ago and had a blast granted it was 4-5ish yrs ago by nevertheless it was an awesome experience especially on the mini tiger coaster and arcades to chill for the day, and would recommend for any avid arcade enthusiast person with the family
This place is a great place to hangout with family or friends, maybe celebrate a birthday party or some occasion. The food is great, service is great and overall you'll have a fantastic time.
Went with my daughter and son with grandchildren
It was cool i was there for my granddaughter birthday party
It is a mixed bag. While it is great for the kids, it is your standard arcade with cheap carnival rides inside. There is also a bowling ally and a germ infested jungle gym, but it isn't anything special. The prices are great for what you are getting and the staff is friendly. It also seems like the owner, based on their responses, is incredibly condescending and ignorant with their business practices. If this is how the owner really talks, take your business elsewhere. Also, there is no such thing as gourmet coffee at 50 cents, unless you consider expired Folgers as gourmet coffee.
My first time going and we loved it, We will be back
Why did we come here? Siblings cannot ride together because my little one one inch shorter than the requirement. There is nothing to do here. Waste of time.
The indoor rollercoaster ride is quite cool. Good for all ages. The rollercoaster ride could be a bit longer ;) and more things for adults to do would be nice... That would earn you a 5star. Couldn't find a way to reply you, so I edited the review instead.
Loved this place! Celebrated with my dear friend and her family!
Great place for the kids, they have some good deals after 3pm for arcade games.
This place is good very good my son had lots of fun
The manager made us feel uncomfortable as we were in line ordering food. The short fat manager was at the bar serving another man a pitcher of beer and kept on looking at my daughters and laughing not making it obvious. I was going to confront him but didn't want my husband to notice. It was about 3pm who ever the manager was behind the counter Nov 24 2018. Never had I felt so uncomfortable the worse part was having my girls notice.
Great place, Great fun!
My son always has such a great time here! He loves all the animals!!
Fun for kids. Food was over priced and not great quality.
A great place for family fun!
Very fun and not pricey
It was ok at first until my daughter and I got on the Tilt a Whirl. One of the workers told me that my daughter couldn’t get on the ride without me. So I got on the ride with her. Then my daughter wanted to go again right after she got off & another lady told me I couldn’t get on the ride with her. It’s like the staff is making up their own rules at this point. Make up your mind, either I have to attend my child on the rides or I don’t. Other than that we had a good time.
Went here this past Saturday for a kid's birthday party. and let me tell you the customer service could be alot better!! The operator's of the rides are rude...how are your rude when your dealing with families with kid's...other than that it was good my kid's had fun.
I don't like going to this place it's disgusting and the workers are rude and they have gum under the tables. I really don't think this place isnt very clean either. There's never a parking spot when it's crowed with people
Great deals during the week and can get crowded during the weekend but so much fun specially with the indoor park and a few fun rides.
Love this place. The kids enjoy it. Prices are kinda of high for the unlimited play rides and the games especially if your getting both and have more than 1 kid but over all the kids love it. Have not tried the food so can’t rate that.
LOVED IT! This was our first visit and I'm so bummed we waited this long. The place is enormous and there's something for everyone. I found the pricing and games very fairly priced. If you go, just get the ride bracelet for one price and ride til you drop.
Not bad if your children are really small but definitely not geared toward preachings I would recommend Enchanted Castle right down the street for older children
For a children place, they have nice food. Also have a separate bowling area. lots of fun
I don't get the point of safari. More like machine land. And too dark inside.
So much to do my kids had a blast!
This place was great the party was smooth with the help of safari land. Everything thing is supplied besides cake. We also brought table tops decoration, balloons, and banner. The kids had a great time! So many games and rides!
Love this place lots of variety Arcade amusement rides soft play area bowling. Pizza is pretty good. Hours of fun
Nice place for kids birthday party Clean place, friendly staff
Whenever I go here I always enjoy it and there roller coaster and spinner chairs are the best, I can't wait to go here again. Once I went with my cousin here and the machine ran out of tickets but no one told an employee, so when me and my cousin did, they added a new stack of tickets and we got everyone's tickets and the employee had to restock the machine with tickets, we got 1000 tickets, 500 each. It was the best time I went.
KIDS really enjoyed the place. I took $15 unlimited pass... has so much fun..... KIDS really loved to drive the car on their own....
We had my son's 6th birthday party here and it was great. The staff was very friendly and they are quite flexible when it comes to changes with the headcount on the day of the party. Unlimited rides on the Tilt-A-Whirl and Bumper Cars for the smaller kids was a big hit. I would recommend buying a card with extra cash for the video games as the kids will burn through the cards that come with the party package pretty fast.
Wonderful place to celebrate birthdays and just a normal day of fun for the kids. My family and I have fell in-love with the place and now everyone wants their birthday there even the adults lol. The food is good and deserts. They definitely have a wide choice of platter which is amazing. Not only do the kids have fun but the babies to even adults on the amazing indoor rollercoaster they have. A good place to visit.
So much to do there! Roller coaster, bowling, food, drinks, games and a tilt-a-whirl! And so much more!
This facility was nice for my daughter's 4th Bday.
Fun for smaller kids, between 44 and 60 inches. Rides are dated and disapponting. 2 of 10 bumper cars not operational. Only 3 of 8 go-karts running at one time. Rides and location are run down. Luckly its dark enough not to see if its dirty. I didn't try the food.
Great place for a kids (4-10) birthday party.
If I could give this place zero stars I would we had purchased 5 20 dollar wrist bands which give us access to all the rides UNLIMITED my cousin (on of the wristband holders) has a cast on her arm and when we purchased the wristbands we were not told that she has to sign a waiver then we go to the rides you gotta be a certain hight certain weight to get on them 2 adults got wristbands and then again was not told this information. We can’t get our money back and we can’t exchange for tokens this is the worst experience I’ve ever had and I will never come here again I would never recommend this place to anyone don’t waist your time. The workers here are manipulators and they knew what they were doing when they sold us 5 wrists bands that were basically useless.
The tiger rollercoaster is for EVERYONE!
Great place my 9 year old granddaughter had lots of fun little pricey if you want to spend the whole day wish they had a all day pass for unlimited rides. Good great and staff very nice and helpful. Facility is extra clean and the bowling alley was lots of great fun. In all 5 stars been there 4 different times and had great things to say about it every time. Keep up the great work. Bill KILEY
I hadn't been back because of bad customer service, specially see the food bar. It happened again after a while of not being in. Maybe better... Different, training for the younger staff. I'm glad you took the time, thank you.
I had the worst experience yesterday for my son’s birthday party!! The person that was in charge of taking care of our party was the worst. She just dropped off our pizza and just stood by the door and did nothing but look at her phone!! Then when I told her that she will have to cut the cake and pass it out to everyone she said ok but moved us 10 minutes earlier than we were supposed to leave the room because she had another party in 20 mins!! She moved us didn’t bring our beverages nor did she come back to cut the cake! I was so embarrassed to my friends and family that I chose a horrible place like that! Trust me everyone will be hearing about this! Also had 3 playing cards that had no money on them!
This a great family place. Great service and fun for all the family.
Fun place worth it although i think there should be a infinite rides and a specific amout of money so that the place can be more fun but overall its worth it over there.
Good very fun enjoyed it.
My children love this place!
This is a wonderful place to take your kids they'll love it once they see it
Your children will have tons of fun here
Through my 5 year old sons party and it was grrrreat!!!
Kids love this place so much to do for everyone to enjoy
Excellent ambiance and very good facilities. My toddlers enjoyed a lot. The place is so full of life and plenty of food options too. Staff, though very friendly, but looks not so happy really. A bit laid back and kind of irritated most of them but that didnt affect delivery of their services. Great place, will go again!
Very nice for both adults & children to celebrate anything, especially meeting up with family I have not seen!
Great place to have fun like when I was a kid.
Fun place for the little ones. Great for birthday parties. Something for everyone. Lits of Rides and Games
I had my sons birthday party here. It was very unorganized. They didnt know what Room they were putting guests in. They had no AC in the party rooms. The host were terrible and unorganized and rude very unhelpful. They sprayed chemicals around children. They threw away food before asking. I recommend not having a party here.
It can be a fun place for kids around age 6 to 10. I took my 5 year old nephew and had to assist him on many of the games. But there are some he can do on his own. The slides were his favorite.
One of the workers saved a 2 yr old from crawling under the ropes at the tilt a world. Great job...think it was oscar. Parents...please watch your kids
We came on a weekday when it wasn't very busy, but we were extremely impressed with the customer service we received. All of the staff was friendly, and helpful. We received a few free prizes from the counter thanks to kind employees, and even got $3 worth of tokens due to a ride being closed. Overall great experience.
My son was right at 52 inches and they wouldn't let him in the Lions den with his sister. Despite it saying 52 inches OR shorter. I feel their games are WAY over priced in general. The wrist band was a decent deal for the rides they used. But the token and redemption games aren't worth on average a dollar a piece. And I was annoyed that on the site it says parents or guardian can ride with child. But doesn't mention it's not for free depending on their height
Enjoyed it, looked well kept, needs some more toddler areas like balls pits & more rides but decent place. Wud come back.
Very nice place the games and rides are awesome they have a bar as well as pool and bowling for the adults
The kids had fun
My daughter was cut really bad she had to have 6 stiches
Great place for men and women and family gatherings..
Bowling is soooo fun here.. !! Love it
Great customer service and good value for the money. Every staff member was accommodating and flexible.
Great Place for Fun
Cool place! Plus they have Deal or no deal...that is totally my jam!!!!
Very nice for parties & celebrating
Great place. My kids had a blast, they loved the pizza and the ton of games they had. I had fun too. Prices are cheaper than other parks We’ve been to. We will totally be back
Kids loves it
Kids had a blast with all the rides and games.
Only been there once, but the amount of stuff to do is well worth the price of a wristband ($15). Staff was friendly and the concessions stand was pretty okay. Prices for food and drink are what you'd expect for a place like that. The indoor go karts are a little underwhelming but everything else pleased. Would go back again
was an okay place but the roller coaster in the inside broke while there were people (including me and my cousins) on it. There was also smoke coming out from the back of the ride, and the employee in charge began laughing at us and just standing there. Meanwhile people on the ride were demanding to be let off, and it took them 20 mins to but the thing in reverse, to let us off. This is one of the worst amusement parks I’ve ever been too lmfao this place is terrible
Very nice had a good time
Have been there many times.. staff (Jennifer, Sal, Steve, and others..) is awesome and friendly.. they do a great job in the kitchen (tasty!) and the place is VERY clean.. great for my kids. Strongly recommend.
Safari land is only ok, it's no dave and busters, but it's an ok place for a birthday party for a 10 - 15 year old, or an ok place to have fun with a family with kids around that age, not much for kids under 5
Fun place.
My kids had a blast here. Even on a busy Sunday afternoon, the place did not feel too crowded. It is spacious and there is whole section for Toddlers. I was able to let my 3 year old run wild worry free because you can see them running around and above you through the nets. I love that!
Much better location than the Irving Park location. Unfortunately it’s geared towards bigger kids so my little one who is not tall enough was unable to ride the rides.
Good for kids. Too busy
Needs new staff. A bunch of teenagers on they're cell phones running the rides. Not paying attention. Not cool
Sick employees , no management on the site
The reason I gave it 4 stars was because there was no entrance on the other side and I had to do a u-turn since I missed the entrance. Other than that I felt like it was a great place for kids.
Didn't like the experience, didn't like the organization. Adults supposedly don't pay to get in. Try going in with your 40 something inch tall kid onto a ride. The sign says must be accomplished by an adult. No problem. By the time you get to the first spot to hop in half an hour later, they ask the "adult" for the paying ticket... "But I thought adults don't pay" I asked, "oh, but you have to because you're riding with your kid"... Needless to say, kid left crying because of a ridiculous policy that none of the other similar-themed places have
We only went bowling here and the lanes kept breaking down. The attendant was less than friendly. The other part of the place with arcade and play room looked ok and fun.
This place is great for kids they have food and drinks for Adults but it doesnt get 5 stars until something new is made A trampoline room, rock climbing, and a maze room with a safari theme would make the kids love it even more it would also make the name stand out more There could be a private Adult room or another section or floor made access to the roof would be a great idea in the summertime!!!
The kids enjoyed themselves I have 9 and 7 year old boys
Not too crowded
Nice kids place to have fun and celebrate birthdays! Very festive colors and animals outside.. Roller coaster was my kids favorite and their tacos were pretty darn good!
Great place for the kids they really enjoyed it. We got lost and found it here
The visit here was pretty good. I just feel that some of the indoor entertainment could have been bigger. I don't feel as those they used the space correctly. Also waiting for the kids to ride the max flight took entirely too long. They should have had atleast 2 more. There were not enough ticket games in my opinion. Overall, they could have been better to me if they do some updating, and utilize their spacing better.
I had my son's 7th Birthday there on Sunday and let me start off saying, booking the party was nice and easy they walked me through prices and different packages available which was very nice and they were very kind and courteous on the phone. The waitress that was given to us her name was Nie she was great helped us when needed she continued to ask us through the party if we needed anything else and she was also very great in providing us with balloons. The kids had a blast which was my main concern especially since they all ranged in different ages from 2 to 17. It was a perfect place for each of their different age groups. The downside that made me not so happy was the room given to us was way too small I had 14 children present with two adults with them also including a few extra guests with older children it was just way to tight to move which made our waitresses job even harder to the point I just took over and started tending to the party. I was told by the Manager that it was the biggest room they had prior to booking the party and it would house 40+ guests so I was disappointed coming to see it the day of and realizing it would not be the best choice. My advice to you if your planning on hosting your childs party there I would stop in and ask for a tour of the party rooms if your not familiar with how things are size wise. The only other complaint I would add is they should like most places due to safety issues allow parents to ride with children and not charge them an extra fee especially since most who host parties there are spending alot of money to begin with. Besides those two things I was happy my son enjoyed his day with his family and friends and would recommend bringing your children there weather it be for a party or just a day out for some fun they offer so much to do that they are sure to have a great time.
Pretty packed and run down. Games seem fun but too expensive. The mouse that likes dairy is a way cheaper option to play.
Took the family on week days. Very nice facility, clean area and restrooms. It's good for kids probably 10 and under. Price is great for the rides available. Kids had a great time. Could use more friendly staff but as long as you don't mind the bored faces the money is worth it.
Cool place for the kids.
Great for the Kids and Good food and Drinks for Me
Nice calm place for the kids to enjoy n have fun.
