The feeding show is always a hit with the kids.
Matt Waller/Google You wouldn’t think these giant creatures could be so agile, but then again, when food is involved, anything is possible.
But gators aren’t the only cool creatures you’ll meet here.

One of the most thrilling attractions here is the epic zip line.

If taking to the sky doesn’t entice you, get behind the wheel of a go-kart and race your friends.
