"We LOVE Rainforest Adventures and Jungle Jim and Friends"

This was our second time returning and it was even better this time around. They have three sloths and offer experiences to pet and feed them. The best part of the day was jungle jim. Jim allowed everyone to pet the animals and did some bits of magic as well. It was very interactive and super fun. The animals all look healthy and lots of unique animals I had never saw before. Wonderful memories were made today. Five stars!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"Indoor zoo"
TripAdvisor user rating 3.0 out of 5

This is an indoor zoo that also has an outdoor area outback where you can feed goats. It is self guided and was pretty enjoyable. Not the best but far from being bad. Gift shop employees were very nice. If you have smaller kids they will enjoy it. Price was also pretty reasonable. We were too late to do the sloth experience.

Wonderful place to visit-- we had so much fun! The website doesn't really make it apparent how extensive this place it! So many animals, obviously we'll cared for and sociable! The employees are kind and helpful and help with any questions. One gentleman even talked to the kookaburra so they would sing for us! I took my wife there mainly to see a sloth, her favorite animal, and Trey was wonderful and made her sloth encounter so memorable and fun! Thank you Trey! We bought one pack of food for the lamas and goats, but wish we'd bought more! The sloth encounter was only $40 but WELL worth it. The marmosets, golden tamarinds and Moluccan Cokatoo are very sociable, especially the marmosets, so you might want to spend a little more time with them! We were there two hours and LOVED IT! We definitely recommend it, it's very reasonably priced!
