Ensure your time in Florida is filled with fun, smiles and epic moments! Gatorland not only provides an affordable day out for the whole family, it offers thrills you won’t find anywhere else. Where else can you see alligators up close, become a trainer for the day and then soar through the sky 1,2000 feet up? Full of alligators of all shapes and sizes, Gatorland truly is a place that has to be seen to be believed.

Home to thousands of alligators and crocodiles including four rare leucistic “white” alligators, Gatorland lets you get up close and personally with these leather-skinned creatures like never before. There’s ‘Adventure Hour’ where you can venture into the Alligator Breeding Marsh for a behind-the-scenes tour and a Gator Night Shrine that takes you deep into the domain of Florida’s most famous reptile.

Like many nature reserves, Gatorland provides regular shows for your entertainment. There’s the ‘Gator Jumparoo Show’ where some of the largest alligators in the world actually jump four to five feet out of the water to retrieve food. Watch as one of the bravest daredevils in Gatorland takes the stage with a 6-8 foot alligator in order to demonstrate the amazing survival features of this legendary creature! Each show is just as thrilling as the next and will definitely leave you on the edge of your seat.

You wouldn’t think it, But Gatorland makes for one hell of a good birthday party. If you’re planning a little surprise for someone in your family, Gatorland offers a unique birthday party package that takes the work out of planning a big day. Including themed goods, admission and loads of exclusive treats. Gatorland also offers scout programs where scouts of all ages can earn their Gator Safety Activity Badge while spending the day interacting with a variety of animals and reptiles!

Ok. We know the name’s not very inviting, but here us out. Voted Best Zip Line in the USA, Screamin’ Gator Zip Line will take you on a journey of incredible thrills. Taking you on a heart pounding adventure of high flying epicness, you’ll be zipped along 1,200 feet in the air from some of the finest zip line towers in the world. That’s not even the best part! As you zip along, you’ll drift across some of the theme park’s star attractions – including Cuban and Nile crocodiles…just don’t look down!

Take your Gator adventure through to the night with Gator Night Shine. Armed with just a flashlight, you’ll bravely make your way along the wooden walkways of Gatorland’s Alligator Breeding Marsh as the sounds of the night come alive around you. Reaching the marsh is easy, what comes next might be hard to handle! Just turn your flashlight towards the water and you’ll see hundreds of hungry, red eyes slowly making their way closer. Scared? Don’t be, you’re high enough away from the waters to not be touched. Just enjoy the experience! You won’t find one like it anywhere else.

Who would have thought it? You’d go to Florida expecting sun, sea and fun and come home having met an alligator! It’s all safe though just don’t try it at home! Just step onto the sand at the world famous Alligator - Legend of the Swamp show and feel the power of one of the most feared creatures in the world! Imagine the picture you’ll take home!

Giving you a glimpse into what it takes to be able to work with dangerous animals, Trainer-for-a-day gives you a hands-on meeting with some of the reptiles and creepy crawlies that live at Gatorland, Starting the day off meeting some of the smallest members of the Gatorland family, you’ll work your way up to the grand final where you’ll be skilled enough to work with an official Gatorland trainer in the Alligators - Legend of the Swamp Show!
