REVIEWS OF Alligator Alley IN Louisiana

Beth Warner

A great experience. Kids can hold an alligator and snakes. Learn lots about alligators and get to feed them. They have a scheduled feeding time/informative "show". Get to walk through the swamps on boardwalks and feed gators. There is an entrance fee and fee for alligator food, totally worth it. Great family experience!

John M

Had a great time visiting Aligator Alley with my family and we all made it out alive

Cheryl Haines

Great place! Such a good time for us and the kids!! Must see

Able Shelley

Nice people. Held an awesome snake and a baby alligator as well. Trainer/Handyman/Presenter/Mc awesomeness he was quite funny. Quick witted humor for those in the crowd who weren't sleeping made for a pretty funny "Alligator Feeding Show"

Tammy Berry

These gators are HUGE!! Feeding time is fun for everyone -- even my toddlers were still and quiet for the whole fifteen minutes, despite the half-full bucket of alligator food in my hand!! We loved going there before we had kids, and this was the first time we've been back since they were born. It was just as fun!! There was a torrential downpour (aka a Southern thunderstorm) while we were there, so we just waited it out in the shop, under the awnings, and in the reptile exhibit. I got to hold a gorgeous Burmese python and a sassy little gator. Can't wait to go back again!!

Daniel Showalter

We loved our experience here and we were able to feed and hold the alligators. The staff was very nice and full of information.

Crystal Slusher

Was lots if fun! Lots of alligators big and small!

Michelle Black

This was a fun day. There are so many alligators. Try to go early and take in as much as you can. Alligators are not as active in cold weather so it is closed in the winter. The kids got to hold snakes and a baby alligator. The feeding was interesting and informative. The crunching sound of their meal was memorable for sure.

Veet Voojagig

I love coming to see the alligators and learning from the staff. I'm glad there's somewhere safe for the gators to live.

Tori Trujillo

Such a cool outdoor excursion for the whole family! Buy the BIG bucket of alligator food. You wont regret it. So many gators!! We had a great time and would definitely do this again on our next visit.

Heather Howard

Every time we go to gulf shores we make sure to stop in here. Such an awesome friendly place. We are never dissapointed. We love seeing all the alligators and love the feed times as well.

tednugentlives

Great entertainment and better than the zoo, like a reptile park. Lots to see in an hour not just gators. Souvenier shops had good layout and traffic flow. Worth the trip and every penny.

Vance Hoppe

Very friendly staff. Hands on environment. Great for kids!

Andrea CHRISTENSEN

Great time @ Alligator Alley; it is nice being a smaller place; not too crowded we were able to view alligators up close but safely. They bring out a small gator for people yo see up close & I held a 2 foot long 'gator

Julie Klinetobe

This was not in our plan today but we happen to come up on it, we LOVED it. What a great experience!

Bryan Barrett

Wonderful experience. Well worth the time and money. Make sure and be there during feeding time! I know for sure 1 and 4 pm. There is one before lunch too.

The 4 Hills

Friendly staff. Hungry gators. Excited kids!

Shewgun

This place is absolutely awesome...you can feed alligators...hold a baby alligator.. and see a live feeding of huge monster alligators...nice place and refuge for some displaced gators put living in beautiful 20plus acres landscaped..must do

Alhena Roberts

This place was super fun! It is the dead of summer so super hot but they have benches and drink stands throughout. Staff was very friendly and informative. On suggestion though, how about a little playground? Overall very worth the drive and hot Florida sun.

Mike Salbego

Really great experience! So many alligators and knowledgeable and really friendly staff. We'll be back for sure!

Ginny Greene

This is a great place to take the kids. I took my grandkids from Ohio who stay with me a week in the summer. I think they enjoyed ALIGATOR ALLEY more than anything this year. The staff is exceptional. Definitely put this on you list of things to do on vacation

Joseph D

Great place to learn about alligators. Make sure you get there before the 11am show! When you're done go stop by LA BBQ down the street, great brisket!

April Walston

We had a great time feeding and holding the gators and snakes and getting to meet all the big boys in back of the swamp! We enjoyed watching their alligator feeding time show. Has a neat gift shop and clean restrooms.

Colette Turpin

Fun day to go look at alligators in a safe setting. They feed them and you can hold the baby. They weren't really active when we went on a cold winter day, but they said spring and summer are good times to go. Inexpensive.

ryan riegling

We've taken the kids here twice and they love it! Be sure to go during the feeding times. Very friendly staff and nice facility. Very much recommend going here if you're on vacation in Gulf Shores. Also, be sure to stop at Lamberts for lunch / dinner on your way!

Wendi Whowell

A wonderful excursion! Worth the price and the 40 minute drive from Gulf Shores! The staff is friendly and accommodating. I wish we lived in the area so that we could visit again and again and again!

SBFDMAN

Excellent family excursion..staff very friendly..lots of things to do..long walking trail..very nice wooden walking trail!

Tommy Davis

I learned a lot about the alligator and other animals there. Feeding time for the gators was fun.

Stephen Beers

A really great place for those who want to get up close and personal with some gators. Once the feeding schedule is up and running the gators are quite active and you get to see them in action. If you are bringing young ones make sure you buy the bucket of gator biscuits. No matter the size....if they are in the water the gators react to the splash and go from the food. A really good place to stop by and check out.

brent Sullivan

Must see place! We learned so much and had a ton of fun.

Stephen Topa

Fun trip for kids and adults. You can see various ages of alligators in pens and take the walking path through the swamp to see big gators in a natural setting. Def must see if you are in the area. They also have other activities for kids

David Norton

Gorgeous day for a trip to alligator Alley. Slightly too cold for the alligators to be as active as they can get, I guess the best days are when it's right around 85 degrees out and the Gators are moving around like crazy. Still, great day with the family, they really enjoyed it. I really like this Low key roadside Attraction near the Florida Alabama state line. It's a favorite stop of ours when we go to Pensacola from Atlanta.

Donna Massey

Great place to take kids if they like Gators!! Very entertaining watching them feed the gators!!

Jonathan Maestas

Awesome place to bring the entire family. You can see, feed, and even hold alligators. They also have a new exhibit with snakes, turtles, and other reptiles.

Meee

Great adventure!!! Up close with alligators, can hold gaters and snake!! Nice boardwalk thru their living space...outstanding super friendly staff!!

Beth Warner

A great experience. Kids can hold an alligator and snakes. Learn lots about alligators and get to feed them. They have a scheduled feeding time/informative "show". Get to walk through the swamps on boardwalks and feed gators. There is an entrance fee and fee for alligator food, totally worth it. Great family experience!

Luke Evan Skywalker Roblox

Really cool place! Great experience learning and watching. Great for the kids!

Amy Parsons

This was so cool! There is a whole bunch of alligators from babies to adults. You can pay extra to get a bucket or cup of food to feed them as you walk through. It is self guided. There are baby alligators that you can hold and snakes to hold. There are turtles, lizards, snakes in cages that you can also view. You can watch as they feed the gators during certain times. Check out prices before going. Fun for the whole family!

Laura Bentley

What a fun and exciting place to visit! We brought guests from Ohio and they were amazed to see the cool alligators in their natural habitat! So fun getting to feed them!

Jacob McRae

Super friendly staff, really clean, the alligators have a great environment so you feel happy for them, and they have more than just gators though it's worth it just for the Gators! An absolute blast.

Erin Schrock

If you are an alligator fan, you have to come here! It was so cool, definitely one of my favorite activities during our vacation. There are several different ages of alligators, you have the opportunity to hold a baby alligator, and if you are able to catch feeding time, that was awesome as well.

Donna Burnworth

Pretty awesome place at a good price. Affordable for the whole family. If you have small children make sure to get tokens for the little excavator ride. Wear your walking shoes and a little bug spray wouldn't hurt.

Amanda M.

Fun experience for kids of all ages. We visited with two teenagers and two younger children and everyone had a great time (adults included). I suggest buying the food pellets and saving them towards the end when you venture on to the boardwalk. It was a nice experience to see the alligators in a natural habitat. Sherry was seated at a picnic table with a 3 year old alligator that you can hold and take pictures with (all free of charge!). We crossed paths again with her later near the boardwalk and she was answered all of our alligator related questions with ease and was very informative. Be sure to catch one of the live feedings throughout the day to see the power of an alligators jaw! Plan for 1 1/2-2 hour visit

Samantha Shu

We had a great time exploring the alligators

Brad Espenshade

This place was great! Super friendly staff, very well kept grounds and lot of really cool animals more than just gators. Buy yourself a cup of the gator food it's worth it to feed the gators. And go when they are doing a feeding show as you get to learn so much about the gators and about the farm and how it works. Great for kids of all ages and adults alike.

Laura Stearns

Adorable stop! It is so open and airy and the property is gorgeous. The staff is friendly. My kids got to hold a baby alligator. I suggest bringing a picnic lunch to enjoy on one of the many picnic areas. There are all different ages of alligators to be seen. You can buy food for them at $17 a bucket. That is fun too! The smaller alligators need smaller size food that can be purchased outside their habitat with quarters. I consider Alligator Alley to be a must visit place with children of any age. Adults will enjoy the stroll too! Plan to spend about 1.5 hours here.

Sonya Taylor

great place to visit with kids. We spent about 3-4 hours and loved the petting area the most.

kaylie pennie

Great place and great people!! The feedings were great to watch, and all of the cool reptiles and other creatures were awesome! I loved behind able to hold an alligator and the snakes!

Helen Wass

Saw lots of alligators close up. Different ages. Easy to walk round. Some other animals in cages. Knowledgeable keepers. Good place to spend an afternoon.

HEATHER BROXSON

Love visiting this place great place to take kiddos! Staff is amazingly friendly! Def worth the money and not too expensive at all!

Crystal Kent

This place was amazing and I recommend it no matter your age! We have a 1.5 year old and she loved feeding the alligators and petting the snakes etc. This is a great place!!

Nathalie Middleton

Go for the show. Always entertaining

Robert Harris

This place was great. Staff was very helpful and polite. Great experience for the kids.

Lodie Smith

Love this place! They have so many Alligators! You can buy a cup of food and feed them. They also have another small are where you can see smaller reptiles like snakes and turtles. And they have showings during the day where they feed the alligators.

Antonio

I told my 4 year old that I had a surprise for him so i blindfolded him and took him there, boy was he surprised! I just wish that there was a little more interaction with the gators even if you had to pay extra money for that

Christina Noyola

Wonderful experience. Very well kept and maintained. Tons of alligators and our children said the best part was feeding the alligators.

Amber Cervantes

The kids had so much fun. Lots of gators. We would live to go back.

Wanda Kelley

My grandson and I had a great time! The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about anything you could possibly ask about alligators. The walkway was very scenic and peaceful. Fun and interesting for all ages.

Ben Rudy

We really enjoyed it. The crew really interacted with everyone. The 4 pm feeding was enjoyable. They have some really BIG gators they fed. The price and feed was reasonable.

Avayah Brooks

I love the fact you can feed the gators and they have alot of shade and fans to keep you cool becuz it was 107 the day i went lol Everyone was so friendly and helpful amd there where gators everywhere ! Definitely enjoyed it! Great job guys def one of the best gator parks i ever been to

Paulina White

First time visiting here but we had a blast! Staff was very nice and the live feedings was amazing!

Joseph Hatfield

Kids loved it, and the owner was just walking around answering as many questions as he could.

Jeremy Thomas

Awesome place! You get to feed the alligators, hold a baby and other reptiles. Fun for any age

Mickey Toler

Even though it was hot when we went, it was definitely worth the trip if you have kids and you don't get to see these every day.

Jason Bange

Good experience, great way to see alligators up close in natural surroundings. It's a pretty quick walk through for the price, definitely recommend getting there around feeding time.

Toni Imwold

Great place to go see alligators, snakes and tortoises. All the employees are very nice.

Shane Blaski

Awesome self guided tour and feeding demonstrations. Tons of gators throughout the trail, and you can buy food to throw out to them for just a few bucks. Also got to hold a baby gator. Whole family really enjoyed it.

Kara Taylor

We had come here many years ago when our boys were small. One of them lives here now so my husband and I came last year and this year. Its my favorite thing to do when we are here. Love the alligators!

Nilda Rodriguez

Exceeded my expectations! My children had a great experience. Lots of meet and greats with the animals my children were able to actually touch and hold the animals. Highly recommended!!

Heather Petersen

Love this place we have been twice now

Tori Sanford

Love visiting alligator alley! Staff is always friendly and my boy loves feeding the alligators!

Pete DiPaolo

Excellent habitat for gators. Great feeding show and extremely knowledgable staff.

Clinton p

Pricey but fun. Feeding time was cool

Stacey Langford

All around a great experience for people of every age. First class staff!

Tammy King

This was my family first time here. Everyone was so friendly and showed us all the animals, asked if we had questions, and let us hold a baby alligator!! Best family outing in a long time.

Sarah Martin

A lot of fun, staff was super friendly. Place was clean, lots of shade which was nice. I wish they had vending machines that accepted debit cards instead of cash.

Nancy Kierstead

Wow! Just... wow! Okay... So in this age of instant gratification, I have to admit I was slightly underwhelmed when I was looking at little alligators, those ones that are 3, 4, even 5 or 6 ft long. And then I am walking towards the back swamp area and on the far side of a pond I see a statue of a massive alligator... Easily over 13 feet long. And then I see another one. And then about that time I realized those are not statues, they are actually freaking enormous living Dinosaurs. The whole back swamp area was filled with alligators six feet on up. There are about a dozen alligators that are over 13 ft long. Those extra big ones are easily two and a half feet from side to side across their big guts... You can walk around on an enclosed Boardwalk that is about 4 feet above the swampy area. There is chain link fence on the side to keep you from falling in with the alligators and becoming lunch. Pretty cool! (Also, someone asked a question the other day as to who is the owner... As I think about it I believe his name is Jim. But I don't know how to go back and find that question. As you leave the facility there is an awesome quote on the backside of the main sign. You don't see it until you were leaving. I called the next day to ask about it and my recollection is that I was told this was said by the owner, Jim. I have uploaded a picture of the quote, it more or less says let your life be a wild ride. Words to live by, certainly!)

Tabatha Shooter

This farm is pretty cool, allot of walking so bring a wheelchair for the elderly but the feeding part was great.

Donna Burnworth

Pretty awesome place at a good price. Affordable for the whole family. If you have small children make sure to get tokens for the little excavator ride. Wear your walking shoes and a little bug spray wouldn't hurt.

Jay Crissey

Very enjoyable, Grandsons loved it and staff was fantastic.

Amanda Weishar

Amazing afternoon visiting with the alligators and snakes. Staff was awesome! Kids loved holding the alligators, watching the feeding and tossing the food to the gators. Beautiful environment and very relaxing. We will definitely be back next time we're nearby.

Reed Leverton

Very well maintained facility. Our 4 grandchildren (ages 4 through 10) loved it, especially the hands on activities... feeding the alligators and getting to hold one and a boa constrictor. I'd give it a 5 but they need to lose the politics. Just because they are Republicans doesn't mean all of their customers are. If I want to hear Democrats made fun of I'll watch Fox news. (I won't watch Fox but you get the point.) Very nice nature walk and educational as to the critters

Jonathan Nizankiewicz

Loved the place and the people. They were nice and gave us good details about the animals. We even got to hold some, which was awesome!

Haley Tomlinson

Was a great experience! A lot of alligators and friendly staff!

Angelina Guffy

The feeding was fun to see (host was hilarious) and the animal encounters made the whole trip worthwhile. We were able to hold an alligator and boa constrictor - my kids were thrilled. Staff was helpful and friendly.

khate2929

It is amazing place, small, medium and large alligators, a wonderful show

Nicole Greer

Wonderful and educational for all ages! Great, knowledgeable staff. Kids were allowed to hold an actual alligator and they loved it!

Lauren Elizabeth Gerlach

Fantastic place. You can see allegator from hatchlings to full grown giants. Cost for Adults is 13 dollars kids under 3 are free. Animal encounters are included in admission. I held three snakes and a baby alligator. The do feedings there times a day can't remember all three but the feed at 1pm and 4pm. This is an amazing place that has a natural environment for the alligators to live in. Staff was all extremely friendly and had good attitudes. Over all super happy with the experience. Totally worth it !

Linda Waller

We stopped at Alligator Alley on our way to Gulf Shores Alabama. We made sure we were there at one of the feeding times. We really enjoyed watching the alligators get feed along with the guy narrating. He was very informative and funny. You can buy food to feed the alligators. You can also hold a baby alligator and a snake at no extra charge. Overall the place was a lot bigger than I expected. If you buy food to feed the alligators make sure you save some for the swamp area. We had kids 19, 15 and 10 along, everyone in our group had a great time.

Melinda Mercer Weiss

Staff is knowledgeable. Animals are healthy and the entire place is very clean. It's an amazing stop if you're in the Florida Alabama area. Admission prices are reasonable. We've been going there for over 10 years. It's a fun Excursion for people of any age!

Maritah Brewer

This place was lovely. My daughter is yet to be 2 but she loved it as well and got to help hold a baby Alligator. Just bring a portable fan if you're not used to the heat. My daughter got pretty aggravated and hot. They have beautiful scenery just watch your step! You are also able to feed the alligators, a huge turtle(my daughters favorite), and hold a few snakes. It's $5 more if you want some chow to feed them with and there's a $3 refill located on the swamp path.

Debbie OMary

Huge gator farm with an entertaining owner that feeds the gators very large farm

Rebekah Whitten

Very clean setup, kid friendly. We enjoyed it very much and will return.

Jessica Lopez

It was nice not so much action with the little beasts it was too hot

Kathy Root

Even though it was early in the season and they weren't in full swing yet it was still very interesting and enjoyable! All staff were friendly and informative and we learned quite a bit about alligators. Gravel parking but the park is all handicap accessible and the restrooms were nice and clean. Well worth the drive to get there!

Joe Hesskamp

This was a great place to see alligators in their natural habitat. They have some monster gators! I would highly recommend going here...make sure it is a warmer day so the gators are active plus watch a feeding it is worth your time!

Joseph Neary

Very informative. Fun for the kiddo.

Larissa Hadeen

So awesome! Staff are so friendly

Subhalakshmi John

Awesome experience getting up close with alligators!

Angie Brown

Great place! We stopped here as a side note on our trip. The staff is very nice and friendly. Next time we are close we will probably stop again.

Tiffany Taylor

Neat place. Kids loved holding the gator and snakes. Get the big bucket of food and be sure to save some for the swamp in the back. Watching the handlers feed the gators was cool too.

Chris Patrick

This was our second time here and my boys love it!! We got to see the live feeding show at 11am and we purchased them each a cup of food for them to toss to the Gators!! All of the employees were very friendly and informative. We got to hold a baby gator and get pictures taken for free! I'm sure we'll be back next time we are in Alabama!!

marian fischer

2nd time here, it's great. The gators are huge! And plentiful. Ya gotta get there for one of the 3 feeding times, 11, 1 and 4. Many other great animals to see. You can even hold a baby gator, mouth taped of course!

Kevin Bautel

Great place to visit. Animal encounters were awesome!! Friendly, professional and knowledgeable staff! Would highly recommend!!

Joanne Vicich

We had fun today watching the feedings. My daughters held a small alligator, snakes and petted a tortoise. I have never seen so many gators, big and small.

Ben Beckner

It was really awesome place to take your family, friends, and loved ones to for a lot of fun but if you decide to go in the summer when is hot you could bring a sweat/ dew rag. And my favorite gator their is captain Crunch, he is 13.5 to 14 ft gator that they feed at 4 o'clock every day.

Gavin Condrey-James

Had a blast hanging out with the gators even though the weather sucked at the time. Oh and romeo the little gator you can hold made me want to get one. he was too damn friendly wish I could go back and give that little guy another hug.

Wanda Harvell

I love seeing all the alligators but love the feedings most. The staff are nice and will give you info in everything there!!

Erin Wehrman

Amazing place, kids and adults loved it. Staff so friendly and knowledgeable. Property well maintained. Over 200 rescued alligators in their natural habitat swamp on the property plus lots of cool other reptiles! Worth a stop..short or long!

Jennifer Jones

My daughter and I are both reptile obsessed so this was a "must do". Never before have I seen so many alligators in one place. Don't miss one of the scheduled feeding times and make sure you get to hold one of the junior gators! The staff was all very friendly and knowledgeable and it made for a great stop on our TX to FL road trip.

John Wagner

Awesome experience. The whole family got to hold and feed Gators. They also have snakes turtles and toy hydraulic excavators.

Jimmy Armbruster

Nice couple hour experience. The gentleman who does the feedings is great! Speaks to the kids outside of the feeding, and answers questions!

Barry Roberts

What a great place to see gators, get to hold one too, live show was funny and informative.

Jared Jobbins Sr.

Cute, clean and well staffed. Nicer than I would expect.

Matthew McLaughlin

Great people! Great encounters! Great experience!

Steven B

This was a great experience. The staff are very knowledgeable and will answer all your questions. If you want the most interaction, go on days where the temperature is in the 80s.

Melinda Mercer Weiss

Staff is knowledgeable. Animals are healthy and the entire place is very clean. It's an amazing stop if you're in the Florida Alabama area. Admission prices are reasonable. We've been going there for over 10 years. It's a fun Excursion for people of any age!

ashley Spann

Hidden gem! This is an unforgettable experience for both adults and children. The alligators and other animals are extremely well cared for (better than many zoos that we have been to). Staff is friendly and informative. Definitely worth the price and worth the drive.

dale You

i was surprised at how nice this park was. It was very clean and well kept. The staff was great. I will go back.

Abigail Robinson

This was awesome! I recommend going mid day or late afternoon as the alligators are more active the warmer it is! Time out for a feeding as they are quite entertaining! The elevated walking path goes on for quite a way back into the swampy area. Fun place for kids.

Kenneth Smith

Great experience! Kids loved tossing food to the gators and the staff was very polite and professional...

Stephen Nix

It was great there was lots of gators and it's a very fun and interesting place to take your family and kids enjoyed my time there today 6-2-2019 and are planning on going again very soon the staff was very nice and helpful when you asked questions about the gators.

Phil Roussin

The family had a great time here!

Adam Wheeler

This place is awesome if you're into reptiles. For a fee you can pay for either a cup or a bucket of gator treats that you can free feed to any alligator you come across on the path. There are several areas that show each stage of alligator development. The hike ends with an elevated deck pathway where most of the adults live. They are ENORMOUS. There is also a neat area that houses rescued exotic pets (pythons, lizards, and tortoises). Here, you can hold baby gators, some species of boa, and the tortoises free roam. Truly a neat area to explore, and aids in conservation/protection of these animals. The gift shop has really neat gator related items as well!

Marissa Moore

So much fun! Staff was extremely helpful and knowledgeable! Can’t wait to go back.

Matt Braun

This place is awesome. What a fun adventure for the family. You get to see alligators up close and personal in their natural habitat. It's fun to feed them as well. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. They truly enjoy their work and interacting with patrons. They have a true interest in patrons learning about the animals. They genuinely care for the animals.

Nathan Doering

We had a wonderful time. My 3 year old daughter is still talking about the gators. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The facility was extremely well kept and clean. Highly recommend getting a bucket if food to feed the gators. It's hot right now but that is normal for us down here. At least they have plenty of shade and cooling fans placed throughout. I've lived here my entire life and can't believe I haven't visited sooner. I believe this was the first of many visits to come.

M

Amazing. The alligator feeding (when you're directed to the bleachers) is not worth the time, but every else is so great it still is worth a visit. Buy a bucket of the food (large bucket if you have a family with you, small was fine for just two). Massive alligators in the swamp area were very active. The wildlife encounters area let's you hold the younger alligators or hold snakes. Great experience. Perfect for kids and adults.

Bill Slay

Gator alley is a pretty cool place, its worth a visit. Its a self guided tour, meaning you basically walk a path and look at the gators and other things that are there. It is pretty awesome to see the animals in a "natural " environment. My only issue is the cost. It's $13 per adult and $12 for kids up to 12. There is a discount of a couple dollars for veterans and seniors which is good to see. However $13 per person for a self guided tour is way on the hefty side. Because of this I am rating 4 stars.

Melissa Brendtro

We had so much fun here! It's hot but there's a lot of shade. The staff is passionate about what they do and happy to share their knowledge. Definitely buy the food; Half the food was watching them move to get it. The park is clean and well managed. They're doing a real service for our environment, saving these animals who might otherwise be put down. Plus, they supply a lot of zoos and universities.

chiefkyle64

Definitely worth the trip! Was expecting a mere roadside attraction, this was much more than that. You get to feed the alligators and see a pretty good show. Staff were all great.

Nick Poth

Just full of gators. Had a great time at the gator farm. The gators seem very well fed and the staff was knowledgeable and nice. It was well worth the trip.

Mary Young

Great experience, we enjoyed hearing so much information on the alligators. The alligator guy actually sat by us on our flight into Florida. What a coincidence!

Jonathan Campbell

Many alligators of a wide variety of sizes, nice facility, friendly staff that is extremely knowledgeable

Paula Guy

Had a great time. Kids love the animals and feeding the gators.

Bizzy Kiechlin

So fun! We learned a lot about alligators, snakes, and tortoises. Feeding the alligators and wearing a snake were huge highlights and big hits with the toddler. It was extremely stroller friendly and had lots of shade. We will definitely be back!

Matt Braun

This place is awesome. What a fun adventure for the family. You get to see alligators up close and personal in their natural habitat. It's fun to feed them as well. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. They truly enjoy their work and interacting with patrons. They have a true interest in patrons learning about the animals. They genuinely care for the animals.

scott spillman

Been there twice will be back every time we're in the area.. Great place at a good Value

duston allison

This was a great place for the value! Our 2 kids loved it and the staff was awesome!

Courtney Hall

Place was very well maintained. Staff was phenomenal! They were very knowledgable. We held snakes and baby alligators, and could even feed the alligators from a souvenir cup! A lot of fun for all ages!

jim kallas

Great place. Great staff. Had a great time

Gail Shields

I highly recommend this place. I took my grandsons, and they had a blast. They got to hold an alligator, feed alligators, and watch an alligator show. The employees are so friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and helpful. Sherry was extremely gentle and patience with my grandsons, and encouraged them to hold an alligator. She is definitely an asset to Alligator Alley. We really enjoyed our visit, and look forward to returning.

Edwin Knowles

Good place to take Grand kids to see

Garry Johnston

Worth stopping by! The kids loved holding a snake and alligator and walking through the swamp boardwalk.

Brandy Brandon

Beautiful ! A great walk . Their really short with the hands on .like just take a picture and that's all the time u get with the alligator and so on.

Heaven Huskey

This place is an awesome family experience! I suggest getting there as early as possible.

Pam Wallin

The grandkids loved it and we did also. Lots of alligators, we got to fed them. Amazing how high they are. Loved it.

Colby Creighton

The people taking care of the gators, are great people. They make it worth the price of admission alone. Then you get to see the animals (obviously mostly gators) and them feeding them.

Phyllis Wallace

We loved it. So many Gators and they looked happy and healthy. The scenery was magnificent. I suggest taking a lunch and hanging out to watch a feeding. We went later and missed the feeding. Differently going back again and again.

Tiffany Stanley

We love Alligator Alley! The kids get up close and personal with animals they can't at regular zoos. My daughter even held a boa constrictor!

Really nice set up and great customer service with all employees. The owner spent alot of time with us answering questions and sharing his knowledge. You can tell they have a real passion for what they do.. Would highly recommend...

So many cool animals to meet! Our girls loved the Gators and Godfather (the giant tortoise). They learned about Gators, pigs, snakes and turtles, how to properly treat and mantain these animals and their environment and so much more. They were even allowed to pet and hold a baby gator and snake and we all loved it! It was a great time and we will be back to see the Godfather, Bama and Toni (the snakes) and how much the will grow and change over the years. Also the staff was more than accommodating and friendly. You can tell they are not only very knowledgeable but also have a passion for what they do. About out to Rob, Sherry and Joseph for all you knowledge and sharing your love for these animals with our kiddos. ❤️ Oh and if possible, go during feeding times, for a great experience and lots of information. It was a great show as well. I'm not sure when all feeding times are (ours was at 4 p.m., which is also when the snakes exhibit closes), but it's worth calling and planning ahead to go around these times.

I was a bit skeptical about what an alligator farm might be like. I was pleasantly surprised! There were a lot of alligators and the boardwalk through the area was nice, very safe even for kids, and well worth the stop!

Brian Ashcraft

Really neat place. Worth the visit if you have any interested in wildlife and conservation. Wes and his staff are super friendly and excited to share

Our first time visiting here and really enjoyed it. The abundance of Duck Weed covering the swamp made for a most interesting view and especially of the alligators covered in the green seeds.

We had a wonderful time. My 3 year old daughter is still talking about the gators. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The facility was extremely well kept and clean. Highly recommend getting a bucket if food to feed the gators. It's hot right now but that is normal for us down here. At least they have plenty of shade and cooling fans placed throughout. I've lived here my entire life and can't believe I haven't visited sooner. I believe this was the first of many visits to come.

Vicki Salzar

Absolutely loved this place. Well worth stopping to visit.

Robert Mackey

Would give it more than 5 stars if possible. Awesome experience. Great staff and very nice facility and you can tell they really care for the Gators and other animals there.

Christa Jones

It is a nice little afternoon activity. You can feed the gators and if you are there at the right time, you might get to hold a baby gator or a snake. It is a fun adventure for the kids.

Amazing. The alligator feeding (when you're directed to the bleachers) is not worth the time, but every else is so great it still is worth a visit. Buy a bucket of the food (large bucket if you have a family with you, small was fine for just two). Massive alligators in the swamp area were very active. The wildlife encounters area let's you hold the younger alligators or hold snakes. Great experience. Perfect for kids and adults.

Hillary Crane

5/5 stars! The gator feeding show was awesome! Joseph did a great job entertaining & explaining the feed process. Definitely a kid friendly environment as well.

Hannah Westjohn

Loved the information that was told during the feeding. Also liked watching all the kids feed the alligators.

Katrina Franco

YALL GO HERE FOR REALLL. It's so awesome.

Susan Harper

So much fun! I highly recommend this place!

Amanda Lause

I absolutely loved alligator alley. The employees went above and beyond and were just amazing. My daughter was able to get up close with animals she may not see at home. It was just a wonderful experience. I would recommend anyone to go here.

Matt Guthrie

Lots of alligators. They do feeding. You can also buy food and feed them. Good place to take kids, they can even hold one.

Bill Slay

Gator alley is a pretty cool place, its worth a visit. Its a self guided tour, meaning you basically walk a path and look at the gators and other things that are there. It is pretty awesome to see the animals in a "natural " environment. My only issue is the cost. It's $13 per adult and $12 for kids up to 12. There is a discount of a couple dollars for veterans and seniors which is good to see. However $13 per person for a self guided tour is way on the hefty side. Because of this I am rating 4 stars.

Jessica Lopez

Nice, but I. Very hot weather the alligator don't come out for the show.

Jen Scheid

Amazing place!! Incredible for the price and the staff was amazing! Such an amazing experience!!!

James Stanley

Super fun and unique experience. You can purchase buckets of gator food and walk over a swamp feeding some amazing creatures. The staff was friendly and eager to answer questions. It’s definitely worth stopping in.

Ida Stevenson

It was great and the people that worked there very friendly.

Alyssa

Definitely a must-go to place!!! The employees are all very kind and knowledgeable. This was our second visit and it was just as fun as the first. It's a pretty decently sized park, they have different areas for the younger alligators, a wild encounter area where the snakes, tortoises and other reptiles were (they also let you hold the snakes!) And at the very end of the park there is a swamp boardwalk, where you can walk around the swamp and view the alligators in their natural habitat. They also have buckets of feed for the alligators, I recommend getting the latgest bucket! They also have live feeding for the alligators 3/4 times during the day. We also got to hold Romeo (alligator)!!! This was a great place to visit & we would come back again.

Robert Albert

Fantastic, fantastic!! What an amazing place. So much fun. Amazing and supper knowledgeable staff. Take your family here. You won't be disappointed!!

Melissa Brendtro

We had so much fun here! It's hot but there's a lot of shade. The staff is passionate about what they do and happy to share their knowledge. Definitely buy the food; Half the food was watching them move to get it. The park is clean and well managed. They're doing a real service for our environment, saving these animals who might otherwise be put down. Plus, they supply a lot of zoos and universities.

Carmen Oseguera

Enjoyed it very much. I have never seen that many alligators in one place. Visiting here from St. Louis it was a treat. Keep up the good work.
