Awesome self guided tour and feeding demonstrations. Tons of gators throughout the trail, and you can buy food to throw out to them for just a few bucks. Also got to hold a baby gator. Whole family really enjoyed it.

We live in Daphne, AL and I wanted to make sure we got to visit Alligator Alley at least once before we moved from the area & I am so glad that we did. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about the alligators. The grounds are beautiful and very well kept! It's a great place for all ages and if you are in the area I would highly recommend putting it on your to do list!

No bang for the buck here. This might be cool for some, but after the initial surprise of how loud the gators growl and how close they are, the fun is over and it's pretty boring for what you pay to get in. There's far more interesting and fun things to do in gulf shores.

We came upon this place during our stay at Orange Beach. Our group wanted to see alligators, and let me tell you, we loved the experience.

Not only did we get to see gators galore, we got to hold one. The snake and turtles exhibits were great experiences as well, and getting to hold a boa constrictor was a one of a kind experience!

Shortly into our trek through the swamp, a strong storm blew in and left us out in the rain. We made it back to a picnic area where we tried staying dry, but without much success. We were invited in to one of the nearby structures by a staff member. Come to find out, this was the owner, Wes. What an awesome guy! He made sure that we made it to the next gator feeding after the storm.

The gator feeding is also a must see if you stop by. Wes and team are doing a great job here and you are certainly in for a treat!

Definitely a must-go to place!!! The employees are all very kind and knowledgeable. This was our second visit and it was just as fun as the first. It's a pretty decently sized park, they have different areas for the younger alligators, a wild encounter area where the snakes, tortoises and other reptiles were (they also let you hold the snakes!) And at the very end of the park there is a swamp boardwalk, where you can walk around the swamp and view the alligators in their natural habitat. They also have buckets of feed for the alligators, I recommend getting the latgest bucket! They also have live feeding for the alligators 3/4 times during the day.

We also got to hold Romeo (alligator)!!! This was a great place to visit & we would come back again.

We had so much fun here! It's hot but there's a lot of shade. The staff is passionate about what they do and happy to share their knowledge. Definitely buy the food; Half the food was watching them move to get it. The park is clean and well managed. They're doing a real service for our environment, saving these animals who might otherwise be put down. Plus, they supply a lot of zoos and universities.

Alligator Alley was a wonderful experience! My kids loved feeding the gators and walking through the swamp! The walking path is paved and the farm is very organized. They do an alligator feeding show that was educational and very entertaining. This will definitely be a regular stop on our road trips through the area!!

Website doesn't let you know that they close for the winter. My son and his girlfriend traveled 1200 miles and wanted to see an alligator farm. We drove over from Pensacola and saw a sign that said Closed For Winter. You might want to update your website. We wasted time and money driving there and had two very disappointed visitors.

This was so cool! There is a whole bunch of alligators from babies to adults. You can pay extra to get a bucket or cup of food to feed them as you walk through. It is self guided. There are baby alligators that you can hold and snakes to hold. There are turtles, lizards, snakes in cages that you can also view. You can watch as they feed the gators during certain times. Check out prices before going. Fun for the whole family!

I honestly wasn't expecting this to be much but my family wanted to go so I tagged along. I was very pleasantly surprised by the size of the place and the staff that is very engaged with the guests. I am looking forward to taking my grandkids there as they get older!

They have so many alligators! From hatchlings to adults. You can hold one (loved it) and feed them too! The cups are $4, but make sure you bring lots of quarters, bc the tiny baby gators (hatchlings through 2 year olds) are too small to eat the pellets they put in the cup, but they have tiny pellets to feed the smaller ones. The swamp is amazing. They build a massive pathway to see all the gators they rescued. Also, the gators that are just "resting" are least likely to eat the pellets.. nice place to visit, and very safe for the whole family!

This place was a blast! My daughter's had so much fun watching the show and walking through the swamp! Very fun, and clean park to visit.

They even let us hold a small alligator! I think it was a couple years old.

All the folks that work there were very informative, and seemed like they really enjoyed what they do!

Would strongly recommend this spot for a fun outdoor family outing!

This was a great experience for the whole family! We got to feed the alligators and hold a baby alligator, a snake and a baby tortoise. The staff was very informative and friendly! The whole park is very nice and the gators were HUGE! Make sure to walk the entire board walk and save some food for the gators out on the boardwalk! We got excited and gave most of our food to the little gators. We learned a lot too! The staff was very knowledgeable and it s obvious they care a lot for the animals and their well being. We will definitely be back next time we go on vacation!!!

This is a great place to take the kids. I took my grandkids from Ohio who stay with me a week in the summer. I think they enjoyed ALIGATOR ALLEY more than anything this year. The staff is exceptional. Definitely put this on you list of things to do on vacation

Once a year! The kids think we re going to Alabama because of the white sand beaches, it s actually so Mama can go to Alligator Alley! I love this place, I love the baby alligators, I love the big ones, I love Crunch and The Colonel! Save some gator food for when you get to the back of the park, the swamp gators are waiting for you to toss them a nugget.

This place was pretty cool. Saw some big gators! They have food available to feed inside collectors cups and pails for a small fee. They have a feeding show 3 times a day. There is a very nice trail that navigates you through the gators habitat. overall great experience.

Awesome...just awesome. Everything was neat and clean. The employees were super helpful and knowledgeable and we're always around to answer questions. We were able to leave and grab snacks and come back for a feeding. This was by far the coolest animal exhibit we saw on our vacation. The employees know the gators by name, and clearly love their job. I would definitely visit Alligator Alley again!

What a fun and rewarding experience in our own back yard! From the feeding of the large alligators, to the pools of small alligators, and the open boardwalk to see the rest of the gators, it's a fun time for all.

An awesome place to go as an adult and to take kids too. You can get up and close with different types of animals, feed different sized alligators and see a live alligator show. Definitely worth checking out!

The feeding was fun to see (host was hilarious) and the animal encounters made the whole trip worthwhile. We were able to hold an alligator and boa constrictor - my kids were thrilled. Staff was helpful and friendly.

The park is beautiful! I can tell that the owners are taking good care of the gators.. I refer people who love wildlife to definitely go there. They let you hold the baby gators and snakes and they are also great at the social distancing and sanitizing. The only thing that I think they should do is to get a big alligator theme like park to let the kids play around on while the parents rest in the shade and properly supervise them.

it was cool to see different alligators although my mom made me leave my phone in the car so i couldnt take any pics. i wished i had it at one point because the biggest alligator had his mouth wide open for at least a full min but nobody would take pic of him with mouth wide open

No feeding or anything going on right now. Said it was posted on website but it's wasn't. Drove 45 mins for nothing unless you wanted to pay 12 dollars a person to hold a tiny alligator they get out of an ice chest with tape holding his mouth closed. Very dissatisfied they should just close for the winter since you can't experience everything

About Alligator Alley

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!
