We spotted this place driving down I10. Decided to pull over and check it out. So glad we did...it wasnt busy and we were able to interact with lots of cool reptiles and cool animals. Since it was a slow day they werent doing shows but we will come back.

Such a great sanctuary, everyone is really friendly and ready to educate. The Gators are really fascinating and they have other animals they let you hold as well. Amazing place cant wait to go back!

It’s a really interesting place right off of I-10. It’s great for kids, plus it gives you a chance to see these awesome creatures up close and personal. Not only are there alligators but caiman, crocodiles, snakes, tortoises, and other amazing animals.You can feed the alligators yourself if you pay the extra fee.

Smaller park but very interesting. Knowledgeable and friendly staff. Very cool to be so up close to some very large alligators. Also loved the little pool area where kids can hold baby ones. You can tell they are treated well and taken very good care of. My grandsons love this place!

Come and feed the alligators big and small, feed tortoises. Hold your own 3 year old baby alligator, snakes,and lizards. Beautiful staff kid friendly and very educational!

My son and I had a good time here and the interns seem to know their stuff quite well. They dont all follow the social distancing and mask recommendations, but they dont discourage or scoff at those that do. It was a good day trip that I would recommend to anyone that happens to be in the area.

Love this place and what theyre doing for the gators. Ill definitely be back through with my family. To see this beautiful sanctuary.

Ive been by this place over 100 times or more and always wondered what it was really like or worth seeing. My wife booked an event here for our little boys 5th birthday as hes into all kinds of critters. Aside from dinosaurs, Godzilla, and bugs, Alligators rank right up near the top for him. Im not sure what she paid, but at the last minute tracked on another $50 so the kids could experience the wading pool and pick up, touch, and handle baby Alligators!!! Ill have to say the kids really loved it and I was kind of shocked that a couple of them even really got into it!!! Seven kids from 3 up to 12 were having the best time of their little lives!!! The baby Alligators were about 2 to 2 1/2 feet long and they had their mouths taped closed so that they couldnt bite anyone. They had a Gator Country guide with our group the entire time we were there. The kids got to playwith the little gators for around 20 minutes, but Ill have to say for the kids it was money well spent. I think They could have spent their entire day in the wading pool! After that they had tables sweet up for our group of 26 under one side of the reptile houses wrap around covered porch. We brought our own drinks, water, cokes, and drink pouches as well as some snacks. One of our daughters brought his birthday cake. She had a bakery make a cake that looked very much like an Alligator and the inside was bright red like red meat!!! After serving the cake and drinks he opened his presents then afterward the tour guide have them a tour of the inside of the reptile house with a lots of different snakes and lizards. After that several of the employees gave a little class on reptiles and snakes. I would say that if your toung ones are into Alligators, snakes, and other reptiles this would be a very neat place to hold a little party for them! I will add a little advice at this point. Try to do it not in the middle of summer!!! They said they would set up some fans to keep the party cool, but they only brought out one fan!!! Our reservation was from 2-5 and we used up the while amount of our time. I would also recommend getting a fold up wagon like those sold at Academy to transport your cooler to your venue destination because its a pretty good size spread. It makes it so much easier.

Amazing experience! Loved the people who work there. They really made the experience worthwhile. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Very cool animals and very interactive.

Loved it. The workers were a fun and helpful. Had Grandsons Birthday party he totally enjoyed it. The owner even cane by and played a minute with him and wished him Happy Birthday!

I caught and rescued a young four month old raccoon that unfortunately got his head stuck in a can. My boyfriend and myself were able to catch him, remove the can, and house it in one of our small dog kennels. I called Gator Country and asked them if they could possibly take him in or refer us to someone that could. Our worries were that it wouldn’t be safe here were we found it and it needed care and nourishment if it was to survive and we unfortunately were unable at that time to give it that. The folks at Gator Country gave us the name and number of a wonderful woman in Baytown who did come and take him. It was an amazing experience and we had amazing assistance during our time with him. Gator Country went all out in passing on the referral and the care and concern they had made us feel assured that we made the right decision. What amazing and completely wonderful people they are.

Kids had a blast. There was a lot to keep us busy. Amazing staff!

This was like a dream come true! I have a love for alligators. My collection is huge. This place was the perfect Mother’s Day outing for me. The staff is very friendly, and knowledgeable. You are up close and personnel with the gators. They even have a small pool that you can get in and catch a few baby alligators. You get to do a self guided tour and fed the animals with the food you buy in the front. Lettuce for turtles, dry food and hotdogs for the gators. They do have a small petting area with goats, a indoor exhibit area with snakes and other gators. Snack shack with great snowcones. Definitely the most gators I have seen in one place . I love that this is like a rescues facility, I follow their YouTube channel, they are now at their forever home. You can also pay extra to feed the BIG gators. OMG what a rush that was. BIG Tex & BIG Al are amazing and crazy huge.The one employee Arlie, he feeds them barefoot is pretty crazy as well, he gives wonderful picture opportunities . I be back one day for a AIR boat ride for sure. Gary & Arlie have done great creating this place for these animals

Great visit especially for kids. They loved the animal petting area, alligator wading pool, feeding the alligators, and holding the snakes. After 3 hours, they didnt want to leave because they were having so much fun. The interns work as volunteers (unpaid) but do accept tips. They work hard for their tips so be sure to bring some cash.

Awesome place you get to feed the and swim with alligators. It is very suitable for kids who love animals

I visited this wonderful sanctuary for alligators and other wildlife for my birthday. I was so intrigued by what I seen as I walked through that I didn’t get to see everything or get to experience the wading pool with the baby gators (I was given two passes to return).This was a very educational visit. A staff member by the name of Leo was so knowledgeable about the gators that because of him I have a new found love for these creatures. Leo also took us on a boat tour (highly recommended) of the Bayou. This was so peaceful and relaxing; and to see the natural habitat of the alligators was a treat in itself.I have since passed on my knowledge of alligators to others and dismissed the stereotypes that people have about alligators.Now, I can go on and on about what I seen and my experience at Gator Country but you should come out and experience it for yourself. It’s well worth it. I will DEFINITELY be back again and again. I gave it four stars ONLY because I haven’t had the full experience yet because of my statement in the beginning. Will change once I return

I enjoyed it, took the family, thought the staff was great and very interactive. Kids got to hold baby gators, big snake and pet the tortoises. We went at the end of August, recommend bringing an extra shirt and maybe a sweat towel, definitely will be going back.

Wonderful knowledgeable staff and friendly. Wonderful place to learn and play for all ages. Must be respectful because your visiting their home!

My son and his wife were visiting us and wanted to see the gators. We packed the van and brought most of the family. We spent several hours enjoying the gators, lizards and snakes but mostly the folks working there. We appreciated their knowledge and the time they took with us to answer questions and share experiences.Leo was amazing. The interns were amazing and their enthusiasm for what they are doing was shared through their actions.I highly recommend visiting for an unforgettable afternoon. I need to go back again with hubby.

Amazing experience and great prices!I just went yesterday.My husband and I have paid a lot more for a lot less. The interns are great! They have a lot of knowledge, energy, and they are extremely nice. I am definitely coming back again.

Absolutely no attempt of social distancing. Out of about 100 people, there was only about 25% wearing masks and none of them were staff members. Everyone is encouraged to gsther up close, and the petting zoo is open.Please do NOT visit until threat has past!! You could save a life including your own.

It was fine for a few hours. The wild adventure didnt seem to be too wild but I may have missed seeing my friend hold anything larger than baby alligators with their mouth securely closed.

Really great place to bring the kids..

Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about the gator and other animals there highly recommend taking the kids

We went today me n my family , enjoyed it it was awesome the staff in red were so polite and helpful it was just the intern Girl in the office hurrying us up and giving us an attitude Other than that other staff were great and the experience was very fun the kids loved it ️️️

Had a blast with the kids. Gary and Shannon really are all about this community and it shines bright in what they do for this area. Couldnt ask for better people or a better park.

This is the touristiest trap of all Tourist traps. Gators were cool And all but had quite an ordeal when we got to the office . I made reservations for the boat tour which was nice. But had to drive out of the way in the boonies for it. But this was a wayyy overpriced experience. The thing that was most disturbing to me was that I felt they were understaffed and some of the animals were not taken care of . I am a hedge hog owner and this place had two hedgehogs there. There were tons of flies all up in the cage, bedding that needed replaced, they were covered in feces and were not used to being held . I wanted to take them home with me and give them the care they deserve and need just as the other animals There do.

Loved the experience!! Very educational!! The interns were so enthusiastic and you could definitely tell they loved their time they were spending with these magnificent animals!!

Fun, relaxed, and low key learning center for people of all ages. Staff are involved but you are free to move around as you please. Interns are friendly and love working with the kids. Not only a tourist attraction, but relevant and functional service to our region.Thanks for the great time!

My three daughters and I had a blast @ Gator Country Adventure Park! My youngest has been into reptiles for at least 2 years and this place made her jump out of her skin with joy, especially wading with gators!! The interns were so friendly and patient, answering every question! Leo did a great job on the swamp tour too! We WILL be back!

The place was loaded with animals, kids were able to hold snakes, lizards and alligators too. Bring water and a snack as youll need to take a break in this heat but be prepared with a full battery and youll have a blast. My kids and I will be going back for more tours they absolutely loved the hands on experience they got.

The staff were enthusiastic to share their knowledge of the animals with our family. The animals appeared to be well taken care of. We liked it so much that we went back for a 2nd day for a boat ride on Taylors Bayou with Leo. He was a great guide.

This place is the coolest! Located off of I-10, this gator sanctuary allows you to get up close with gators in their appropriate housing. The easter egg hunt proved to be really awesome for adults and kiddos alike. The employees are knowledgable about the gators and very kid friendly! For a fun day with or without kids come to gator country and get away from the hustle and bustle of the big city.The property is very clean. I thought it may have a stench like at a zoo but it does not! It is very pleasant to look and learn about the alligators with no judgment from the staff. They rehabilitate sick and injured gators which will,in turn, live their days out in the sanctuary. Happy animals with people who truly care about their safety.Over all, a great experience and a good,fun day with the kids, outside in nature, away from technology and back to nature. GO CHECK THEM OUT!!!

Loved it.great place.My kids wife and myself will come back

Took my kids there for the first time yesterday. They absolutely loved it. Can’t wait to go back again. Lots of animals for them to see. Very friendly staff. Loved visiting this wonderful place. Will definitely be going back again.

We really enjoyed our visit with our grand kids. They had a blast. Thank you guys at Gator Country for having the free weekend.

We loved it there was so many alligators and turtles and we even got to hold small baby once and seen so many different other reptils.and we feed so many

We we driving back from Lake Charles Louisiana and aaa this place decided to stop by. Love it but I was a little scared with some many gator Once got inside it was not what I expected it was very educational and even had a petting zoo my favorite was the tortoise. We feed gators weenies, even goats and duck their food. Even saw I show so much fun.

My husband and I went there today and we had the best time of our lives. Its very educational. We did the boat tour, fed the gators and held anything we could hold and take a pic with. We loved it, the staff was really knowledgeable and friendly.

Absolutely the best. The staff is always so friendly definitely check it out

It was a fun experience feeding the goats and chickens. The gators were huge and interesting. Prices were good. Just gotta keep an eye on the little ones because there are little openings to slide their fingers in both inside and out by the fence. Holding the lil gators was awesome sauce!!

Omgosh my family had sooo much fun here!MUST GO! Just load your family up and go! You will not regret it!

Gator Country was great! The place is nice and there are plenty of gator ponds, plus the indoor center with snakes and baby gators you can hold. If you go in the winter there are no crowds...but the gators are hibernating, so theres that. The interns were friendly and helpful, especially Sam!

This is by far the BEST gator park I’ve been to! I got to hold a baby gator & feed a 12” monster of a gator!

It is a great experience i recommend everyone to go if they have never been

I love Gator Country! I took my niece and nephew along with my sister during the week. They had a great time, but beware if your kids want to go wading with the gators its only on the weekends. They only do shows on the weekends too. We still had fun and enjoyed the new petting zoo.

This place is amazing for kids and adults get the 22 full access pass

I took my grandson and he truly enjoyed the adventure, he is telling everyone who will listen he is 3

A wonderful place, I personally enjoyed by seeing varieties of gators. We spent Half day and it is worth as well. Especially the show on which they feed chicken to gator and the gator jump to catch the food is wonderful. You can touch the smaller ones :)

We need to visit again. We went a few years ago. Everyone was friendly and willing to share their knowledge with you. Great place

The staff are so eager to share their immense knowledge of alligators in general and especially the ones in their care. They are friendly, informative, and engaging. Feeing the tortoises their tortoise leaves and feeding the alligators are our favorite activities while we are there. Be sure to check out all the different critters in the big building at the back, and dont miss the little room with the guinea pigs!

Its an awesome place for gator lovers. We all did njoy Big AL. We handled snakes, baby alligator. Just loved the experience. My kids wants to go there again.

Absolutely loved this place. Staff was A1. The experience was so educational and thrilling. Very affordable and worth every penny. I got some truly amazing pics

A wonderful sanctuary for these awesome creatures. My family and I had a great time seeing the animals and learning about them. We got to hold baby alligators and large snakes. It was especially fun to feed pieces of hot dogs to the gators and lettuce to the turtles. Kids had a good time and the staff was extremely friendly.

The staff here are amazing its a must see for everyoneWe had the best time.

So much fun. There is so much to learn from this place. Feed alligators with the food you buy. You will have a blast. The presentations are about 20 minutes long per section. You do not have to attend the presentation. There are 3 parts to the presentation. Great place!

Awesome place to take the family, we loved every second of it!! The staff are friendly and very knowledgeable.We cant wait to visit the south padre location whenever it opens.

This place is neat. Informative, opportunity to hold reptiles. Nice way to spend a couple of hours. Arlie (below) is entertaining and really loves his job. They always have interns who are gaining valuable experience. GC teaches about the importance of the animals in the world. Definitely recommend.

A great place to learn about alligators and other animals. We had fun.

Had a good time checking out the place. The kids had a lot of fun. Lots of different size gators and you can buy food and feed them. They also had different reptiles housed inside to see. Cool place.

Wish I could have one of my own. The Gators r gorgeous

They were closed due to Imelda but I had a friend who was helping out there. They have a lot of gators. The place was bigger than I expected. Its a great place. You can tell they really care about all of their animals!

We THOROUGHLY loved our day at Gator Country celebrating my daughter’s best friend’s birthday!! We will definitely be back! (And I’m TERRIFIED of alligators!) The owners and interns are so kind and the entire experience was wonderful!

Me and the family had a great time. The shows were ok but we really enjoyed getting to see and touch the gators and snakes. This is a good place to stop and spend couple hours. Would recommend bringing the family for a good day adventure

I loved being able to wade with some gators! They have done a lot of work since I had been there 2 years ago, its looking great!

Good fun ,outside so easily social distanced. the shows was entertaining for whole family

I wish I had all day this place is amazing!!

Had a blast and the kids loved it. Definitely be going back.

A great and interesting stop especially for those with under 10 who love animals

Great place to visit. Gators are very well taken care of.

This place is amazing! They are so wonderful to the animals they help. Who knew some gators are jerks and some very sweet!

Wr absolutely loved this park. Great and friendly staff. The feeding was fun too. Very educational!

This place was awesome! I love taking out of town family here when they come to visit. Many dont know about gators at all and are always blown away. Truly a one-of-a-kind local place. The staff are really friendly and very interactive. The price is really good too. I highly recommend!

A very nice experience!

We all had a great time!! Thanks Gator Country, Shannon and Gary!

Love this place! It is a small family-run establishment. The owners are very involved and make sure the guests have a great time during their visit. It is easy to see that the empoyees care about each and every animal. It is a great experience for everyone!

My boyfriend and I had such amazing time today I learned a lot love to see all the reptiles and the gators worth the price the interns are amazing would have love to seen big al but he didn’t want to come out today...

Great place great people. Owners 6 or 7 year old daughter walked around with us and kept us laughing the whole time. All the staff and family were very friendly. I recommend buying the hotdogs from them to feed the gators. Also if you go please leave a tip even if its a dollar or two it goes to a great cause. Would definitely recommend coming out and checking them out.Thanks guys for what you do.

We had an absolute good time. It wasnt very crowded. Had an opportunity to meet Arley, one of the owners of the park, and his son (hes the young man holding the snake).

Being a visitor from out of town, this place was one of the best attractions we went to during our three month stay in the area. It was perfect for all ages, with plenty of excitement for both young and old alike.We went towards closing, which is perfect. Id recommend going arround feeding time. This allows you to actually see the ridiculously sized gators they have there in action.The interns (staff) were excellent! They made the show fun, entertaining, and actually hilarious!They even took our phones up close and got pictures litterally feet away from the 13+ foot long gator!They treated my girlfriend and I with respect and answered all of our questions. Great animal exhibits.Id recommend bringing a hat/sunscreen and a water bottle. Also, theyll ask when you purchase your wristbands if youd like to tip the interns. Usually asking for tips prior to service being performed bothers me so I didnt leave one. I really regretted that. They went out of their way to make sure each guest there had a unique and fun experience. Definitely deserved a large tip.Over all, youd be remiss not to check it out.

We had a blast. I highly recommend it.

We had a great time and some great hand on learning. Cant wait to go back.

Its amazing to see how passionate and wonderful the guys that own the place are! They are personable, educators, and so accommodating. The wildlife there is clearly taken good care of. What a fun family outing! Highly recommend.

This is a really awesome place. The people there r the best...will definty go back ..

Great place to take kiddos for entertainment and education. Their staff is amazing. They are extremely helpful, knowledgeable and passionate about their work.

My son wanted to see alligators and we luckily chose Gator Country. They sell food for visitors to feed the Gators so you can feed them as you walk the grounds.. There is reptile building with friendly interns there to educate. My son was thrilled at getting to hold some of the animals. We will be going back.

This place is amazing. The owner is really cool and authentic and down-to-earth. Theyre funny and personable and make your time with while. I would strongly suggest paying just a tiny bit more for the Adventure Pack and getting to spend time with the Gators. Lots of big Gators lots of fun. Lots of reptiles too

Very friendly staff and parking was a breeze. Use your navigation to get to the entrance. The location is visible from the freeway but the entrance is off the side road. Theres a lot of snakes and other animals available to view and touch inside the main building. The interns and staff inside were very helpful.

Very fun family friendly staff. Would definitely go back

Really cool place to visit. We had a lot of fun. Very informative!

We had a great experience and learned a lot about reptiles!

My boys loved it! Little pricey though.

Fun place to stop with the family. Educational and entertainment all in one stop.

Great time during the pandemic and a break from the 4 walls while being genuinely educated about gators and their friends!

Love this place. Learned alot about gators and turtles

Great experience! Many Gators to check out. Several educational presentations. College interns had a wealth of knowledge. Spent about 2 hours wondering the park and reptile interactive display.

Pretty cool place..Kids enjoyed it

A 3 year old is the same price as an adult!!! Way to exspensive and not worth it!

Great staff and interns that were very knowledgeable. Loved seeing the gators, snakes and other animals.

Great experience for the kids to see gators up close and hold a real gator!
