A great family trip. The tour starts as you enter the reserve with almost all animals free roaming. This means to expect close encounters. Rhinos may in fact cross in front of your car and an ostrich at your window looking in! The lions are now enclosed in a pen you drive around. But, years ago they were open and... more

We loved it! Even our two teenagers who take a lot to get them excited enjoyed Lion Country Safari. If you stay at the KOA (KOA site gives you free tickets to the park) which is right next door you will hear the Lions ROAR! No kidding! I was walking my dog and the lions started roaring, and she couldn't... more

Here is a jewel that doesn't lose it's luster. The park was established as a place for Americans to get up close and personal with wildlife from around the world in a safe, well managed environment tended by people who provide extraordinary care for the world's vanishing wildlife populations. Here the people are in captivity as they drive at a... more

Took a day trip with my girlfriend from Ft. Lauderdale and had a great time. The animals were very outgoing and friendly, not the usual sedated wildlife that you sometimes encounter on theme-park safaris. We had close encounters with an ostrich (who we thought was going to attack the car) as well as a giraffe. The theme park area itself... more

We just went to Lion Country Safari this past weekend. My two sons, ages 4 and 9, had a great time! The safari is great - and during cooler weather, the animals are so active. We had close encounters with rhinos and giraffes. We also had an onstrich come right up to the car and start pecking on the glass!... more

My husband and I drove from Miami with our 1 year old and we had a great time. My husband and I enjoyed it more than most zoos we've been to. I stopped to let an ostrich cross the road, and instead, it leaned onto my hood and started pecking at the little black peg on the hood that shoots... more

While talking about my upcoming vacation in Florida with coworkers, I was told about Lion Country Safari in Loxahatchee. My husband and I had visited the drive through safari at Six Flags in NJ a few years ago and loved it, so we added Lion Country Safari to our itinerary. We are so glad that we did! As previous people... more

We had a great day at Lion Country Safari. Our kids (three and six) were thrilled to see the animals, and I must say, they have an impressive collection: rhinos, huge African elephants, water buffalo,ostriches, zebra, many different types of gazelle and antelope -plus, of course, lions. From what I could tell, the animals were well cared for - certainly... more

We took our two children (9 and 12) to the park and had a great time. With a coupon from one of the brochures, or a AAA card, you can save about $2 per person. For a family of 4, it costs about $80, which was a bargain, as we explain below. Lion Country Safari is two attractions in one.... more

This place is great. My sons are 7 & 9 and we had a great day there. The lions were sleeping but there are plenty of others to see during the driving part. The best part of the day was visiting the giraffes in the walking part. You walk up to the giraffe's face level, buy a cracker for $2... more
