Gone Wild Safari was great…the staff was super friendly and we loved being able to drive through the park especially in this heat with a 1-year old!

My 3 year old Grandson loved it! A cute place to go with kids

So much fun! I recommend buying at least 4 cups. Try to avoid feeding the camels because they will steal the cup and scatter the food into your car while chewing on it. Emus are also a little stupid throwing the food everywhere but they are easier to get rid of 🤣 We loved the sheer variety of animals, from capybaras and ostriches to beautiful antelopes and a giraffe. There are lots of parrots and a couple reptiles in the gift shop. The two cats roaming around are super clingy and sweet!!! If you end up needing a car wash afterwards, Amerishine is a good one and they have free vacuums.

Immersive drive-thru safari experience for all ages without leaving the country! Beware: you’re liable for possible minor damage sustained during the adventure to your personal vehicle. Also, the camels WILL steal the feed cups and we had it scattered in every crevice from one end of the car to the other 😩 Definitely worth it though. The ticket building had birds and reptiles to see, and there was a few fenced in areas to walk around and see animals. We stayed for about 2 hours, went through it twice. Family of 7, with 3 adults and 4 children spent roughly $80

I went on 11/05/23 around 2:30 P.M., and it was the most fun and exciting zoo experience ever!

The camels are very aggressive...lol
There was a camel that literally took a cup of feed from the floor of the truck by my feet. Lol
I was a little terrified, but my reaction did not freak it out at all...it had a mission, and it took the cup without spilling any of the feed. Lol!!!

You will enjoy yourself here. I intend to go again.

It is very affordable, too. I believe $8.00 or so per person and $4.00 for the cups of feed.

It’s an adventure. Get up close and personal with the animals. Watch out for the camels. They want the food and they will get it. They will stick there entire head and neck in your vehicle to reach it. If you don’t mind a little camels slobber, not a problem. The giraffes are very friendly.

Small but it's a fun place to visit. Love the people who work here and care for the animals. Drive through carefully and hold onto your cups tightly!😂 The camels will try to climb into the car and steal the food pellets🤔😉🤪😄

From feeding the giraffes and enjoying the petting zoo. To laughing our heads off at the greedy, clepto camels, this place was a blast! The concession stand was closed, but the gift shop was nice and houses many birds and reptiles. The playground is small, but the kids enjoyed it all the same. Would definitely go back, and recommend this hidden Louisiana gem.
