Don't bring a nice car through the drive-thru portion if you don't want scuffs on the clearcoat. You will end up with food crumbs all down your door seals and in the car, you'll have slobber all over your windows, paint, mirror, and it's almost guaranteed you might have some tiny deer try hoof up on your door to try and get to the food. Just a fair warning to really think about before taking it through.

Lots of fun. Great for kids.

2/5 - Disappointing

A money pit. Paid $80 for family of 4. Took (5) half hour trips through the safari. Our $80 ticket only came with one 32oz. cup of kibble; additional food for additional cost; There may have been 5 species that were indigenous to Africa. Most other animals - North America. To feed the lorikeets 3 pop cycle sticks for $5; to feed the rabbits $6 per person; to feed the kangaroos additional cost. Last trip through Safari is 6:30pm and park closes at 7pm. Ice cream and snack shop closed at 6pm for some reason so the animals got fed more than we did. Just disappointing. There’s a safari park in Virginia that does it better and a greater variety of animals. All of there animals are accessible from your vehicles. Many animals in this Safari we’re behind enclosed fences.

It was about 50 degrees and many animals were not out.

Kids loved it.  I did expect to see some big cats, etc., but my grandkids had a ball feeding the animals.  Expect some tongue marks on your car, but lots of fun.  We did the walking and the drive through twice.
