Mo was my favorite. He was well worth the money I paid to meet and spent time with him. Even though I didn't get to hold him. I talked to him and petted him. He was a good listener and made me laugh. I miss him but yet happy he has a new home. I bought a seasonal pass which I live close to the zoo and went alot and got my money worth. Some people thought I worked there because I was there almost every day it was open. But that's what u can do with a seasonal pass...... it's good for that year . Even everyday if u want to go. So this year I look fwd to seeing grandma the goat and gus the alligator. The animals are wonderful ❤.

We've been to many places like this safari park and this one just did not compare. First, we maybe spent an hour here, if that, which just doesn't justify the $40+ ($11 for adults, $9 for children plus tax) to enter with our family of four. Second, it was a very hot day with minimal shade to get away from the blistering sun. Third, be very careful when entering the goat petting zoo area. These guys were VERY hungry and swarmed us as soon as we entered. They ended up getting stuck in the little gate area before you enter the actual petting zoo area. I had to lift my 5 year old out of the area because they were just too much for her to handle. We then went into the barn area where there were more animals to feed and see. There was a big fan blowing in there but it was still pretty hot. There was a good number of different animals to see in there which was nice. Our favorite part of the safari park was petting and feeding the kangaroo. We then walked out over to the large area of animals out in front but most of them were too far out in the field to see. All in all it wasn't a terrible place to go I just think the price of admission is a bit high for what you get.

I agree with several of the reviews in that this place is SUPER overpriced on the entry fees. The feed price was ok.we liked all the animals. Some had little if no information on what they were. We didn't go into the petting zoo for obvious reasons. I wasn't going to pay an extra 10$ to ride a camel. That should have been in on the entry fee. There was another fee to hold animals and mining. They advertised an alligator but there wasn't one.We liked the birds and the Kangaroos. The lemurs we're fun to watch and feeding the animals was fun. Not a horrible place but definitely not worth the price.

I used Google Maps/Directions to get back into it. Once there you drive past the residence up to the Barn where you'll see the Store. In addition to purchasing Tickets you have the pleasure of buying a sack of feed to feed the animals behind the red fencing. Follow the instructions on each fence. There are some animals on a specific diet. Flat hand feeding. Remember that line. The Hogs and large Bird's, feed them on the ground. Some of the Kid's are loose and they look very lovable. Don't let your guard down! No matter how sweet the little things appear, I assure you they will chow on your favorite item of clothing or anything else you may have that catches their eye. 😁 Nothing to fear as they were gentle as their natural instinct was acting itself out.The large Bird's are the only "caution" I'd send out. If you've seen a chicken peck think x 100 with the large birds.Even though feeding the Deer, the Kangaroo, the Goats was fun as they came to meet us, going into and walking through the Parakeet Sanctuary was the most unique for me. You can get sticks for them but you are in their domain once you enter the second door. 🐦

My 10yr old twins had a lot of fun. It's small so it doesn't take long to go through I.

I love this little place, if you're looking for something simple and fun to do with or without children that involves animals, then this is the place to go!! Decently priced, friendly staff, little gift shop, and feed for the animals and they will come up to you for that close up selfie with them!

Great family time, one of the best places to take kids and animal lovers to visit. They have a gift shop with drinks, snacks, ice cream and more. You can purchase bags of feed for the goats and deer. And sticks of Bird seed for the bird cage. We are regulars after our 1st visit. Highly recommend if in the cape area.

Awesome little petting zoo. We had such a threat family time here. Adults were like $9 and you could buy food bags and treats to feed the animals. Lots of animals to see. We had such a blast in the goat area. Deer zebra camels llama bunnies too. Definitely recommend. You only need one hour and you will have a blast I think we stayed 2 hours. They have picnic tables to sit and rest and bring a lunch...they did have snacks in the concession / souvenir area and water.

We always enjoy coming here! We especially enjoy the parakeet cage and feeding them and the other animals as well. There was a very cute little newborn kid that we really enjoyed too.

Went to see this petting zoo for the first time today and was highly disappointed w/ the appearance of the place and the treatment and care of the animals. Cages were filthy including rust and mold, and a lot of the animal enclosures were very small for how many they keep in them. Inside the barn were a lot of big birds kept in crammed cages that looked as though they hadn’t been cleaned in months. Saw a bird that had a raw and injured neck (I’m guessing from the other bird it shared the cage w/) and a goat w/ horns that were growing into its neck and causing a bleeding wound. Would not recommend paying to visit this petting zoo at all.

September 13, 2023......I drove there with my blindniece, 1½ hour trip. we were all excited and when we got there the gate was locked with a closed sign on it. 🤷♀️ It's 11 a.m. and they won't answer the phone either??? No explanation. No nothing??? We were all very disappointed. Cape safari could at least answer their phone and let us know what's going on.Their online page says their open. Their sign out front says opened every day from 10-6 🤷♀️

Some pros and cons with this park. Pros would be the staff is kind, there was a play ground for the kids, the animals were fun and personable to watch, and there is a variety of activities you can do. Which brings me to the cons: in my opinion it is too expensive for what you get. $20 is the cost for one adult and a toddler to just see the animals. If you want to do the activities it gets more expensive. I do think feeding the animals should just be included, maybe a free souvenirs to make it more worth it. My kid and I only spent an hour here, and we saw all the animals several times. Even had an ice cream break... so my biggest criticism is the pricing. But I do need to add that the animals shelters were small in my opinion.. so if it is that expensive I think they need to put the animals in bigger living spaces. There was a lot of land here so I think it has better potential for the future. I think it's honestly worth $5 per person.

Entry fee is overpriced for attractions. The care of animals seemed poor. We took two 6 year olds and were extremely underwhelmed.
