Gatorland is known for its up-close encounters with real alligators. The park features zip lines, an off-road vehicle ride, a petting zoo and the ability to be a trainer for the day. Along with the thrills, you can also see a variety of animals, including birds, capybara, big cats, snakes and other reptiles.
What’s new: The newest attraction at Gatorland is Croc Rock Adventure. On this daring adventure, you’ll rock climb, walk across a cable bridge and ride a 350-foot-long zip line.
Time Out tip: For a true Florida experience, try the Gator Night Shine experience, which is $25 per person. During the tour, you’ll make your way to the Gatorland Alligator Breeding Marsh to spot alligators at night and feed them.
