Review - Florida - Loxahatchee - Lion Country Safari

Lion Country Safari is a highly rated animal drive-through Zoo. They also have another park on site, Safari World Adventure Park, with a walk-through safari and hands-on activities but at the time of our visit it wasn't open yet (only now it has a soft opening).

Please allow plenty of driving time to reach the park. The drive-through safari operates daily 9:30AM-5:30PM EST but they close entry at 4:30pm EST and you'll need well over an hour to drive through the entire park. At this time, tickets must be purchased through their website (Lion Country Safari.com).

Once you enter the gate, you can pull into the parking area on the right to buy snacks at the food stand or to use the restrooms (which were well-maintained).

This drive-through does not allow feeding of animals and you must keep your windows closed (and they do keep an eye out). You can take your time driving along the trail and there are plenty of pull-outs.


Lion Country Safari is one of the few drive-through parks in America which feature lions and rhinos. I'll admit it was challenging taking photos of the lions as they were behind secure wire fencing.

Zebras and Giraffes:


Other animals around the park:


Please note that the park is not currently accepting coupons. Tickets for both parks are $25.00 per person ages 3 and up.
