"Unforgettable Experience!"
★★★★★

Our visit to Orange Hill Gator Farm was an unforgettable experience for both adults and children! The owner was incredibly kind and patient, sharing his passion for alligators with us. He has gators of all sizes, from babies to massive ones that live in the lake. We even got the chance to touch and feed them, all while feeling completely safe. One of the best parts was that we had the place to ourselves—no crowds, just a private and relaxed time. We left with amazing memories and fantastic pictures. Highly recommended for a unique and exciting experience!

"very unique and run first class"
★★★★★

Amazing experience for my family. Very knowledgeable host who took the time with our entire family of 8 on a private tour. The kids were just in awe of all the animals, walking with the small gators and a chance to safely feed the large ones was an experience they will have for a life time. I can not rate this visit high enough it was very unique and run first class.

Excellent value and great staff. They took the time to explain everything to us and let us get a once in a lifetime opportunity to interact with wild alligators. I would highly recommend this place to individual families or groups.

"Family fun for all ages!"
★★★★★

Such a fun unique gem in the Florida panhandle. An easy hour drive from the beach and worth it for the up close, personable, educational, and exciting experience presented by some of the most passionate people in the industry. Family fun for all ages and the best gator photos your family will capture!

"too much fun!"
★★★★★

It was pretty awesome! Very personable experience. Tours by appointment only. Kids had a blast walking in the water with the baby gators, holding them, and just the awe of it all. Goats, lizards, pig's too much fun. A definite must see and experience.

"we had a blast!"
★★★★★

We had a BLAST today!! I think every family should go at least one time. It's family owned & they are awesome people. My family all got shirts & pictures that will last forever. Getting up close with a Gator can be very scary but Mr. Ellis & Mrs. Lee make it super fun!! We loved today & I'm so thankful that we were able to have this family trip!!
