Hear From Satisfied Guests

We had a great time! We did two otter swims with a guided tour. Lexie was super knowledgeable and all the animals loved Ben. We loved being able to hold and touch the different animals, but I also really respected that they didn't force the animals to come out and see us and that they took safety into consideration as well.

 

For me it was an amazing experience!
