The organisation is doing a great job taking care of the animals! Im grateful for them. The tour is guided and it takes around an hour and a half. This is good because Im not wandering around like I will at a zoo. You can get to see the animals quite close and safe. They also offer a cabin for rent so you can enjoy the safari experience. Small kids like mine got bored pretty quickly unfortunately. They enjoyed playing in the dirt instead.

Ive been spending a lot of time here, and ive seen a lot of tours go through and a lot of smiles on peoples faces.I have not seen the employees here be anything but kind and compassionate.The animals are given the respect they deserve here, its a beautiful place to come visit. Beautiful location as well, in the rolling hills of east county, oak groves etc.

My family and I visited on Saturday September 19th. Boy was it hot out! The group we were in was quite large, so we had to wear masks the whole time, which made the heat worse :( Coming from Chicago, I did not understand how hot desert heat is! Most of the animals came out, but maybe if the group was smaller, more would have come out. I would like to return on a weekday with much less people. The bathrooms are nice and air conditioned. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly and it was amazing to learn about all the animals and their stories. We did not upgrade to feeding an animal, but you get to watch those who did do it quite close, so I was ok with that. My family and I agree that it was a wonderful trip - very cool to learn about all these animals and to see them up close. They are doing Gods work here, giving these animals a life of luxury like they deserve.

LOVED!! Enter the raffle to win a free feeding to any animal. We just adored our visit. Well be back with my parents and use the little golf cart to help my mom view the beautiful animals. We learned so much! Thank you for a very happy day.

Great sanctuary for animals. Nice tour, took about 2 hours. Beautiful surroundings.

Great tour! The animals are well cared for and loved by staff and volunteers. Cant wait to take my grandkids there!

By far the coolest thing Ive been to. Theyre doing amazing things and Im exited to see how big the place can get. Keep doing what you guys do best ️

This place is a unique experience. The staff are great I enjoy every time I visit. Good cause to support as well.

Theres nothing like seeing these guys in person, theyre so beautiful!

Amazing place that does amazing work for abused and neglected animals. Help them please and have a great time!

Awesome staff. Awesome animals.. Concerned about you with these fires. Yall ok??

Enjoyed feeding all the animals, and to know the animals are being well taken care of means alot.

Amazing place to go and see! I cannot say enough good things about, Lions, Tigers & Bears. The animals are well cared for, the people work hard to care for all the animals, and everyone is so nice at the sanctuary. Our tour was educational as well as fun. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and told us about the animals and how they came to be there. I was so excited to be able to get up close to the beautiful big cats and bears. I would definitely recommend everyone to go visit...you wont be disappointed!Thank you Bobbi for making this place for these animals, and making it available for others to see. If the world had more people like you in it, we would have a lot less animals in need of our help.

This is a great place to visit and see real wildlife up close, fun for all ages. Great staff and being able to feed the animals was so much fun.This sanctuary does amazing work, thank you for keeping them safe and sharing with the public.

I recommend the behind the scenes tour. We fed every animal

I have been going here several times a year for the last 5 years. You can see the love and care these animals are getting in their forever home.

Theyre doing a good thing here. Not just finding abused big animals a home, but working to stop animal exploitation and abuse.

Worth the money! We had Bryan zoo keeper and he was great and super knowledgeable. We made sure to ask a lot of questions and will definitely be donating in the future.

Enjoyed our tour! Learned so much about the animals and the organization’s mission to save and protect animals. What a great non-profit to volunteer at or donate to. On our tour we met Bobbie the founder and heard the story of how she got started in her mission!

I was extremely impressed with the dedication to these animals. The cleaniness of the grounds and the upkeep of the animal enclosures shows how much Bobbi loves these animals!

This place is so worth the money and drive. Such an amazing experience and such an wonderful cause.

Theyre definitely doing a great job to protect all those animals. Congrats.Visit this place if you can!

This place is amazing. I wish I had known about it sooner. You can see that the animals are well taken care of. This exotic animal sanctuary runs off donations only so guest are encouraged to bring something from their wish list. All information is provided on their website and in reservation confirmation email. If you have a chance to come here, do it !

BEST rescue I’ve visited on 4 continents! Extremely caring staff and a wonderfully healthy, safe environment for these amazing animals. I encourage everyone to visit and support any way you can!

All round excellent experience. You are able to get up really close to the animals and if you purchase a feeding ticket feed one of the animals of your choosing. A few tips, they do a raffle before the tour starts to feed an animal so if you have not purchased a feeding ticket, you can buy a raffle ticket for just $5. Also, they sell annual pass memberships at the end of the trip for 50% off. Given the great work they do here, your money will be well spent!

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! This animal sanctuary is stunning, the staff are so passionate about animals and love what they do. You can tell how well the animals are taken care of and how much they trust their volunteers. My family and I will be returning often and filling out applications to volunteer up there

Amazing place for any animal lover. Well worth the time.

Great experience in beautiful setting.

It is such a great experience. Everybody was nice and you can tell that they really do care about the animals. Not only do you get to see them really close, but you get to learn about the animals as well. Not only is everything good, but the place is beautiful. Definitely worth it and we will be going back.

It was a Fantastic experience! The staff and volunteers are awesome but the animals are the true stars. Its a two hour easy walking tour of up close to the animal greet and feeds. The big cats make lots of noise which is thrilling. The staff is very informative.Most of the animals had really sad beginnings but somehow ended up at Lions Tigers and Bears and have happy endings. If you love animals this is The place to visit!

This is a rescue sanctuary, all the animals are happy to be there. You can feed an animal of your choice for an extra fee (which helps buy food) I fed a white tiger!!! Amazing

Impressive facility, the animals looked so healthy and well cared for.

So much to say yet nothing I can say will give this experience what it deserves. Please go support the efforts of this nonprofit working to give previously abused and neglected exotic animals a healthy and good life! Michelle is an EXPERT GUIDE and well be back for other visits on the day she works!!! Its sad to know about but ignoring the truth about what some humans do to animals for profit or fun, wont change the truth. Please donate and/or go enjoy viewing these majestic animals.

Wonderful experience, staff is pretty patient and you get a close experience with animals ️

Love this place. Animals very well taken care of.

Great place to see rescued wildlife and how they are being well cared for

Just an amazing organization. They do not pay for ANY of their animals, they are all rescues. The grounds and staff are fantastic and the animals are extremely well treated and given proper environments. They are fully certified. They offer private tours where you can personally feed the animals before the park opens and I can say it was one of the most memorable experiences we have had.

What a great experience! If you have a military association, active, retired, civilian, conteeactor you can purchase a ticket through MAR for $25.

All need someone to look after us

This is a really nice place to visit. It was my second time there and I was again impressed by the big cats and bears. All very active. Much better than any zoo. Our guide Alissa was very nice and knowledgeable and all the stuff were very friendly. They were even giving birthday gifts to kids on the tour! Very nice experience and I highly recommend to visit this sanctuary.

This is an incredible experience! The sanctuary saves the lives of animals while also creating an environment for people to share the lives of these majestic animals. So impressive what this group of employees & volunteers can accomplish!

My husband and I were very impressed with this place. The animals are well taken care of and I was amazed at how close we were able to get to the animals. Most of the animals are used to people and come right up to the fence in order to get treats. This sanctuary does a great job of educating the people on the exploitation of these poor creatures. It is well worth the money and your time to go visit this sanctuary.

I love bears and big cats, but often when I go to so-called sanctuaries I learn they are just glorified zoos. This place, though, is an actual sanctuary with the highest accreditation. So if you want to go see these majestic animals and also help rather than hurt them, this is the place for it.

Took me grandson there--we had the best day EVER! Great place for kids of all ages.

A must see nonprofit organization. Large open sanctuary with animals that are well cared for. The volunteers are so dedicated & love their roles. Stories of how the owners are trying to save lives of the abused. They count on folks to support them with food, supplies, volunteering & money to keep this sanctuary running. Clean, well organized and informative. You can pay extra to feed the animals, stay overnight at their cabin, have a wedding, party or event. All money goes to support this establishment; they receive no federal funding therefore count on us for help.

My office got me a behind the scenes experience for Christmas. I cannot say how greatful I am to the team for this experience. The LTB staff was all wonderful and that is and understatement. But to see these amazing creatures that close and even feed them all is something that we will never forget. It is a bit pricey, but totally expected for a conservation center that my Fish&Game uncle never heard problems about. Top notch all around. Highly recommended at every level.Pics are of LTB played by Bakari, Maverick, and Albert. And no, Im not a volunteer or something. They made enough impact that we will always remember those names.PS - Meet Tabu! You want to know why these wild animals are not pets? She WILL remind you. Amazing tiger and my personal favorite!

The animals are amazing. What this organization is doing is fantastic. Where i feel they are missing the boat is the comfort of those who come to visit and support the sanctuary. It was 95 degrees and we are sitting in the hot sun with no shade watching a video then walking and standing at many enclosures with no shade. It may be a thought to erect some shaded areas and benches at the important stops. Thereby, causing people to return, tell a friend and continue to bring in revenue.

This place is definitely San Diego Countys best kept secret. I had heard of Lions and Tigers and Bears occasionally on the news but unless you actually go out to see it you do not get the full picture of what a beautiful and amazing place this is. Gorgeous animals in beautiful, natural enclosures out in the rolling woodsy hills of Alpine.Very educational too for people to learn about how widespread animal trafficking is and its devastating consequences for the animals. For myself at least, it made me feel good that the money my family and I spent there goes directly to giving these animals a wonderful place to live out the rest of their lives after everything theyve been through.The story of how the owner, Bobbi Brinks, answered this calling to help these animals is the most amazing thing of all. I wish someone would make a movie about her life and about the various stories of all the animals she has saved.

Great place, animals look very well fed and taken care of. This place rescues big cats and bears around the country and provides a sanctuary for them to live out their days

GREAT TIME! Great staff, animals looked healthy. Had so much fun watching them open presents.

This place was wonderful! The animals were so well taken care of and have awesome enclosures. The staff was knowledgeable, happy, and inviting. We had a great time.

Great experience!

I went there with my dad 3 times

I just cant say enough about this place. It is one of the very few fully accredited sanctuaries around. They have over 60 exotic animals theyre on quite a huge property. They are housed and very large luxurious enclosures. They are all there for life and pampered and vetted and fed. you can visit get an education on the exotic pet trade, contribute to the welfare of these animals and help her sanctuary thrive.

These people are awesome! They have a lot of compassion for the animals that they save. I went here on a sunny day so it was beautiful to see all the animals!

Its a great place. wonderful staff, you gotta go!

One of the most amazing experiences of my life. Highly recommend!!

Amazing service and a good mission. Very informative.

The best. A wonderful place to learn. Donate if you can. Exotic animals need this place

Lions tigers and bears is a wonderful animal sanctuary that doesnt incredible job taking care of animals that have been rescued. This place is definitely worth a visit and you will be inspired by their good work. I plan on visiting here again many times.

Great place theyre doing great things

Amazing animals, caring and knowledgeable staff, beautiful location. Recommend more seating near the habitats.

This place is unbelievably amazing. A group of us went as a birthday present for my mil. Not only are they helping countless animals who were rescued from shady traveling circus groups, smugglers, breeders, and home owners. Almost everyone who works here is a volunteer which speaks volumes about the work theyre doing. If you buy certain packages you actually get to feed one of the animals. They trek you about the history of the animals, the situation with wild animals inn this country and throughout the world, and what people can do to help. Please visit. Please educate yourselves. Please donate to hep save more of these amazing animals. And please, please, please stop visiting or supporting dishonest and horrific roadside zoos where you can pet baby tigers (lions, bears, etc.) because your money and patronage helps fund their abuse of animals. And please (for the live of all things holy) do NOT buy a wild animal as a pet. Youd think that would be common sense but apparently not. This place is amazing for young and old, and I cant recommend it enough.

Love this place, best experience given to my husband and I from the staff of Lions Tigers and Bears. Please visit this place and you will not be disappointed.

Love this place !

One of a kind place to see rescued lions, Tigers and Bears plus many other wild animals rescued from various situations. Ive never been closer to a male lion or a 9 foot Siberian tiger. Gorgeous, well cared for animals in a friendly informative setting. LOVED IT!!!!!

Such an amazing place... I love how the animals are taking good care of and cant wait to see the newest animals

Awesome place with a great purpose and wonderful experience. Staff is friendly and informative.

Cool place

We did the Behind the Scenes experience for my daughter’s graduation gift. It was an amazing day. Brian, our guide, was wonderful and taught us about each animal, their likes, personalities and stories. You can tell that he and the rest of the staff and volunteers love these animals and are committed to taking the best care possible for these animals. I highly recommend supporting and visiting Lions, Tigers and Bears. It’s truly an exceptional, once in a lifetime experience.

This place is amazing! The big cats are really something to see up close and I learned a lot about these animals. I would highly recommend this place!

Very educational. So nice that exotic animals can have a forever home.

Oh my Lions and Tigers and Bears ernest a beautiful place the staff ate amazing and friendly and the work they do for these animals I just cant put in to words Ive personally mailed a thankyou card to the owner Bobby she is amazing.

My friend Debbie Covely and I. Visited Lions Tigers and Bears on May 23, 2019. It had rained previously so there was mud but such is life. The Sanctuary is very clean and all the animals are well cared for. They have an on-site hospital and a vet comes as needed to care for the animals. This place is not a only a safe haven for the recovered (saved) wild animals, but it becomes their home until death. The LT&B’s are well cared for and we paid to feed the BIG CATS. What an experience. Will visit again soon. A must visit for this summer.

Love this place and their mission. Many times people treat others and animals like trash. This place treats these animals with respect and dignity. And its very cool to get to feed a lion or tiger. These animals are not meant to be pets or at road side carnivals, they tell you the stories on how these animals were treated.

OMG!! it was so exciting! We were the first behind the scenes tour. Brian was our guide. He was so awesome. We learned a lot and got some awesome photos.

Amazing place to say the least , beautiful animals being cared for in a country setting .

Great place to visit with kids and for all animal lovers. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. This exotic animal rescue gives abused and mistreated big cats and bears a safe and beautiful forever home. There is no direct human contact with the animals for their safety and yours. You can buy a package that allows you to feed an animal with a fork on a long pole. I learned a lot about how each animal came to be there and also about the abusive animal trade that is putting exotic animals in terrible living conditions and people in danger. Come see the animals, hear their stories and support L.T.Bs efforts to expand their habitat to rescue more animals in need of help. Visit their gift shop where you can buy t-shirts and other items to support the L.T.B rescue. The owner Bobby is doing an amazing job advocating and educating people on animal rights and abuse taking place in our country and all over the world. BIG THANKS! for all the good that you and your staff are doing.

I am Supporting this Sanctuary second year in a row! I love this place! What a great day. Animals here are amazing and you will never see them from so close and active anywhere else. Our guide today Elise was great, fun and knowledgable! Highly recommend this place. Will be back for sure.

Make reservations to visit this place. Amazing experience!

This is a great experience to see beautiful animals and also learn about the problems that require this kind of sanctuary. It is not a zoo. The staff has amazing stories to tell and they all have a happy ending. Go see this place - truly fascinating.

World class sanctuary!

Wonderful rescue organization.

Very educational experience! This wild animal rescue sanctuary is here for all of the right reasons! Very informative and a nice group of volunteers!Very much worth your time to visit!

Staff was helpful lots.of information, helpful, interacted with all the daycare kids. Kept us safe, was nice and kept everything interesting and fun

Amazing, well organized and a great cause .. .

Is a nice place for kids but not toddles arround 7-8 years

SO educational! Alyssa, the volunteer coordinator, was our guide today. She was very knowledgeable and personable. We met Bobby, the owner at the start of the experience. Theyre doing GREAT things here rescuing neglected and abandoned animals!

Unique place. Very educational and fun. By appointment only. Beautiful animals you can feed. Should be called lions, tigers, bears, and more....a must see.

This is the best place if you love to see wildlife that has been saved by the people that should have never been allowed to have them.They rescue them and give them a better life they never leave once they get there. The staff there is very helpful and friendly. I seen lions ,tigers and bears. They had just rescued a Siberian tiger youngster under a yr old , his name is mocha. He knew his name. It was that coolest experience be close enough to his run to hear him make his noises. So beautiful they rescued him from a trafficker trying to sell him at the mexican border. I was happy to see people that gave him the love and attention he needed.

Amazing place!!! The employees are knowledgeable and genuinely care about the animals. Great organization to support.

Beautiful refuge. Servals are my favorite animal and I was very excited to feed one here. :D

Lions, Tigers, and Bears was excellent! Although we were a little late, they did not mind and happily put us into the tour late. The staff was really nice, the animals were very active and stress free; the whole place just had a good vibe to it. I highly suggest Lions, Tigers, and Bears to a tourist, the only set back: a long drive there and back. Other than that, coming from an animal activist my self, I love the work they do and support it to the fullest.

This is a great place to see the animals up close. A fantastic facility. Great staff

A must see. The care and concern for these magnificent animals by the wonderful staff is immediately evident upon arrival. All need to learn about the plight of exotic pets and what can be done to improve conditions for all.

I don’t normally leave comments, but I was amazed at how knowledgeable Brian (Sanctuary Keeper) is and how much passion and dedication he has. It was very informative and moving. I had no idea the animal slave trade was a thing! My wife and I learned so much about what this place is doing to give the cats and bears a great place to live, especially since they’ve come from small areas of living (in extremely small cages, horrible conditions and greed driven abusive owners). I respect everyone who works at “Lions, Tigers and Bears” and I’m thankful for meeting some of the staff. They have wonderful personalities and you can FEEL the passion they have for the job, it’s not just a “9-5pm” and this is a PLUS in my books, I’m very particular about that.We bought tickets and got a little mixed up with booking, but they were very accommodating towards our situation, even though we weren’t officially booked (with 5mins before group tour). I can not remember her name but THANK YOU for your speedy booking process, getting everything straightened out and not turning us away for another appointment/day. We are forever grateful!!But overall, this place is amazing. If you want to meet great people, learn the history of each family group of cats, bears, the starting point of the sanctuary and purpose, you have to check it out. It was very heart moving.One of the Lion’s we fed was BIG! I’ve never been that close to a lion before, let alone that size! “Lions, Tigers and Bears” have the best security practices and measures in place so the Animals can be their natural selves and humans are protected from potential danger. There isn’t enough space within the review form, for the words I have to expressed. I promise you, YOU WILL NOT be disappointed touring this place.Thank you Bobbi Brink and the LTB company!

Was awesome. Closer then you think. And plain rad. Great people. Great cause. Bragged all day at work after going. Will be back for more. Thank you L.T&B !!

Very cool experience

Awesome! Truly amazing

A HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT. The staff and volunteers here needs an inservice on customer service. From our initial interaction with the staff telling us where to park till the end, it was 100% clear that the staff doesnt care about the people who take the time to visit but they do care about your money.I brought my 10 year old daughter here on her birthday. She was even wearing a birthday girl badge. Not a single staff member said happy birthday or even bothered to interact with her. The graphic animal trade videos are not appropriate for children. The staff response to me covering my daughters eyes during the video These arent even the worse pictures. They wont let anyone under 18 years old feed an animal which I understand why, but come up with some kind of interaction for kids.Both myself and my daughter left feeling more aware of the wild life animal trade issues but also profoundly disappointed with our visit. Ive been to other licensed sanctuaries and had a much better visit because the staff showed they cared both for the animals and for those who come to visit.
