North Georgia Wildlife Park and Safari

I have obtained tickets for my mother's birthday. She was quite surprised! The tickets included a turn with a guide and the opportunity to feed capybaras. The location is lovely, and everyone was very kind; we had a great deal of fun. In addition, I would like to give a five-star rating to a gentleman named Coffee, if I have spelled it correctly. He was absolutely amazing, and I would like to extend my sincere thanks to him for making my mother's dream a reality. She has always wanted to see and pet a sloth.

My first visit to the North Georgia Wildlife Park and Safari was a magical experience! I had purchased a sloth experience as a birthday gift to my best friend. It was a 2 1/2 hour drive plus the cost of the encounter, gas, etc. and let me tell you - it was worth every penny and hour on the road! Coffee was our guide for the encounter, and we could not have been in better hands. He was warm, welcoming and the passion he feels for his job just radiated from him. He was very knowledgeable about not just the sloths but other animals at the facility. He went above and beyond to ensure that both we and the animals were comfortable and had a good experience! The pure joy that my friend experienced being able to meet and greet her favorite animal was unmatched! After the encounter, Coffee and Grace (another staff member we met when we arrived for our encounter and then saw her again after) were kind enough to take time out of their day to educate us about other animals at your facility. Speaking with them you could truly see how much they enjoy their jobs and taking care of the variety of animals at the park! We were unfortunately crunched for time at our visit and not able to see all of the safari park-however, we already have plans to come back before the end of the year with our families! The Safari Park itself is already a great experience - but the experience with the staff helped to make it even more enjoyable!

A great zoo to visit. They have a drive thru safari, petting, wildlife walk and experiences. We did the young capybara, fennec fox, and baby sloth experiences. That was so cool to be able to pet and feed the animals. The staff was knowledgeable and kind to deal with. Clean. Will definitely come back.

This place was awesome! We went for my son’s birthday since capybaras are his favorite animal. We did the ultimate experience and really enjoyed getting to spend the day hanging out with all the different animals. I think our favorite part was the drive thru safari as we have never done it before and we had a blast with getting to feed animals that kept greeting us through the window. They also had an axolotl in the gift shop in the tank my son’s second favorite animal! I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who loves animals or to anyone who wants to have a fun family day out.

Upon arrival this zoo looked pretty basic but we were in for a surprise! Our adult son is blind so a zoo isn't normally much fun for him. However, Coffey changed all that! We signed up for the Interactive Behind the Scenes Tour (last tour of the day) and Coffey was an amazing guide with his knowledge and humor. In addition, Coffey was sensitive to our blind son's needs and gave him an extra rich tactile experience. Our son was able to touch so many animals that he had only read about. He touched Alpacas, Capybaras, an armadillo, a ferret, a water buffalo, a wildebeest, a chinchilla, a glass legless lizard and a hedgehog, and his favorite animal was the Sloth! So if you are blind or just want a delightful multisensory experience then this is the place for you. It is totally worth every penny!
