Go on a high-quality, guided safari on a working exotic game ranch in Tampa Bay, Florida.
Reviewed By lindalX6073LU - St. Petersburg, United States
The owner and tour guide gave a fascinating safari tour, which allowed us up-close views of the animals he manages at the ranch. The giraffes, camels, and ostriches were incredibly significant to see. However, there were zebras, deer, tapirs, rhinos, hippos, and more. It is well worth the ticket cost to see these beautiful animals and hear how they thrive.

If you're interested in Florida history or history, in general, this is a wonderful place to explore. We spent about three hours walking around the vast grounds and going inside the meticulously cared for buildings. The main building also houses exceptional exhibits - there is so much to see! We probably could spend two full days here and still have more things to see. So many little details, items, artifacts, placards / info signs to read, etc. that are not to be missed. There's plenty of bathrooms scattered throughout the grounds too; the one nearest to the General Store looked (and smelled! LOL) brand new - it was spotless. If you get a chance to talk to Andy (who is in the main welcome center / building / museum), he is a fountain of knowledge about Florida history, war history, etc. - incredibly engaging, friendly, and knowledgeable about our great state of Florida and beyond. Cannot recommend talking to him enough - truly an asset to the museum. Cannot wait to return to delve deeper into some of the exhibits and / or come by for a festival. A must see!
