We attended a Halloween event here and it was fun for the family. But for what you have to pay for everything, I dont think it is worth it. Went once, like it, but probably wont return.
Gone Wild Safari, I was pleasantly surprised by this attraction. For around $12/person + the cost of feed $9 for children you can ride a converted school bus and feed exotic animals. Camels, water buffalo, llama, ostrich, kangaroos, several types of deer and antelope. It's really fun to feed and pet the different animals. There is a petting zoo where you can get up close and personal with some of the animals. Well priced for what you get, friendly knowledgeable staff rich with southern charm. A must do!!!
I bring my son her often. It's a little pricy but deffinantly worth the money. The employees are very nice and you can tell that they really enjoy their jobs.
This is kinda like a petting zoo for huge animals. Admission also earns you a bucket of feed which these gentle animals will follow you anywhere. Its extra fun for kids, even teens. They have refreshments for purchase and I believe open pretty much all the time. It's better in the cooler months, like all animals, they are a little friskier. The staff is knowledgeable. This family have had animals like this for years but finally built it up and opened it to the public. Its good for families, school outings, or even couple looking for a unique date.
Had a great time. Loved getting to feed all the animals on the safari tour. The kids were so cute petting the animals in the petting area. The only thing I wished were if they announced the events they are having a little better.
This place has alot of potential. It's great that CENLA has something like this for families. Only problem is the price. Most families cant afford to go and the membership is sky high! It was nice to see the animals from the bus and cool to be able to see a giraffe up close.
Its amazing how much information is in a couple of these reviews. You can read through them and see which ones the owners wrote. Who, besides the owner or someone that works there, knows the family has had these pets for years and decided to open it up to the public, the camel makes all 3 feeding stops in record time, and the antics of the animals when they come up to the bus? You would have to go there quite a lot to have that kind of insight. Oh, and by the way they have a Facebook page so you can keep up with their events. Nice advertising, lol. What a joke! I am going next weekend and will post a real review.
What a wonderful place to go. The best time to go is early when all the animals are super hungry. Buy a bucket of feed for $20.00 and enjoy feeding all the animals, believe me they will come find you on the bus if you show them your cup. The staff is very friendly and truly cares about the animals in the gift shop and outside. Plan to stay the day because they have a playground and the parakeet pavilion is out back. They also have a facebook page so you can keep up with all the activities and new animals. The last time my family went we were introduced to about 10 new baby deer and several new calves. Wonderful Place to be.
this place is wonderful for solo or family trips. it's just great.. they have several attractions to choose from and the staff are very friendly. We always feel very welcomed.
This a great place to take your family. We had four generations at the park. We all love it. It is best that you go in the morning during the warm months.
