Stopped on our way back to Tennessee. We've heard good things about this place. We ALL had fun and definitely want to come back. We had a group of 11 we all loved it. Heads up though if you have 10 or more you all get a $2 discount per person. We didn't know this until we left lol could have saved us a pretty good amount. Anyway definitely worth it !!!!

This place is great. Got there at 10. No long wait to get in. We were able to move through the park rather quickly and did not feel crowded. Tator and the alligator feeder man we're funny. My favorite part was Reno. He was so patient, informative, and made for a great first time at the park. Great family fun. Would most definitely do this again.

A really great place for those who want to get up close and personal with some gators. Once the feeding schedule is up and running the gators are quite active and you get to see them in action. If you are bringing young ones make sure you buy the bucket of gator biscuits. No matter the size....if they are in the water the gators react to the splash and go from the food. A really good place to stop by and check out.

Fun experience for kids of all ages. We visited with two teenagers and two younger children and everyone had a great time (adults included). I suggest buying the food pellets and saving them towards the end when you venture on to the boardwalk. It was a nice experience to see the alligators in a natural habitat. Sherry was seated at a picnic table with a 3 year old alligator that you can hold and take pictures with (all free of charge!). We crossed paths again with her later near the boardwalk and she was answered all of our alligator related questions with ease and was very informative. Be sure to catch one of the live feedings throughout the day to see the power of an alligators jaw! Plan for 1 1/2-2 hour visit

This was a lot of fun. We got to watch them feed the gaters, they let you hold a baby one and they have an area to hold snakes spiders and lizards. Plus a bunch of places to walk and explore. Overall it was very cool.

A must stop with kids on a Gulf Shores vacation. Worth the drive. We highly recommend the add-on petting zoo experience. The person working there is excellent with children, very knowledgeable. 6 stars.

My daughter and I are both reptile obsessed so this was a "must do". Never before have I seen so many alligators in one place. Don't miss one of the scheduled feeding times and make sure you get to hold one of the junior gators! The staff was all very friendly and knowledgeable and it made for a great stop on our TX to FL road trip.

It was a cool experience. But was expecting a little more for the price. It felt like walking in Jurassic Park after it was closed. Looked like something great at one time. However did get to hold a baby alligator which was awesome!

Great place to take the family for a few hours of fun!! Lots of large alligators, snakes, and turtles. Staff was very friendly and willing to answer questions. We got to see a rattlesnake shedding and a tortoise laying eggs. Shaded boardwalk through the swamp where alligators were just a few feet away. Don't miss the live feedings!!

Wow! Just... wow! Okay... So in this age of instant gratification, I have to admit I was slightly underwhelmed when I was looking at little alligators, those ones that are 3, 4, even 5 or 6 ft long. And then I am walking towards the back swamp area and on the far side of a pond I see a statue of a massive alligator... Easily over 13 feet long. And then I see another one. And then about that time I realized those are not statues, they are actually freaking enormous living Dinosaurs. The whole back swamp area was filled with alligators six feet on up. There are about a dozen alligators that are over 13 ft long. Those extra big ones are easily two and a half feet from side to side across their big guts... You can walk around on an enclosed Boardwalk that is about 4 feet above the swampy area. There is chain link fence on the side to keep you from falling in with the alligators and becoming lunch. Pretty cool!
(Also, someone asked a question the other day as to who is the owner... As I think about it I believe his name is Jim. But I don't know how to go back and find that question. As you leave the facility there is an awesome quote on the backside of the main sign. You don't see it until you were leaving. I called the next day to ask about it and my recollection is that I was told this was said by the owner, Jim. I have uploaded a picture of the quote, it more or less says let your life be a wild ride. Words to live by, certainly!)

Very cool, very friendly staff and a lot of fun! I took my four year old little girl and she hasn't stopped talking about it yet! She especially loved holding the young gators George and Marley. What a learning experience for us! It's not expensive and they have bigger, better alligators than the zoo! Thanks Alligator Alley!

I told my 4 year old that I had a surprise for him so i blindfolded him and took him there, boy was he surprised! I just wish that there was a little more interaction with the gators even if you had to pay extra money for that

Carried the grandchildren and all they talk about is going back... the gentleman that feeds in the swamp, took time to talk to them and even feed a big fellow for them... He pointed out Captain Crunch to them. Amazing,will definitely be back.

If you're looking for a unique and exciting adventure, Alligator Alley is the perfect destination. Located in the heart of Florida's Everglades, this swamp sanctuary offers visitors an up-close view of hundreds of alligators and other wildlife in their natural habitat.

The boardwalk also provides access to other areas of the sanctuary where visitors can see a variety of birds, turtles, snakes, and other creatures that call this ecosystem home.

The sanctuary also offers educational programs that teach visitors about the importance of preserving wetland habitats and protecting endangered species. These programs are designed for people of all ages and include interactive exhibits, guided tours, and hands-on activities.

The sanctuary works closely with local organizations to protect wetlands from development and pollution. They also participate in breeding programs for endangered species like the American crocodile.

In addition to its educational programs and conservation efforts, Alligator Alley offers a range of activities for visitors to enjoy. For thrill-seekers, there's airboat rides that take you deep into the heart of the Everglades where you can see even more wildlife up close. For those who prefer a more relaxed pace, there are nature walks along scenic trails or fishing trips on nearby lakes.

Alligator Alley is open year-round with different hours depending on seasonality so be sure to check their website before planning your visit! Admission fees vary based on age group but they offer discounts if you book online ahead!
