Gatorland is a long-time tourist attraction that should be seen by everyone--visitors and residents alike. They not only exhibit alligators and other animals, but they provide a lot of education about them and their native habitats.
Because they actually farm alligators, visitors can see gators from birth to full-grown, including photos of some sizeable record-holders. The Godwin family did Central Florida a great service with this venue, and it's a good place to see alligators up close and, if you're so inclined, to even taste gator meat or buy a gator souvenir (handbag or briefcase).
Prices are reasonable for the entertainment they provide. Convenient, accessible location with a fun gift shop and plenty of parking.
PROS: Educational, interesting, amazing
CONS:

This isn't your regular amusement park, there is no rides but lots of fun. Great place to see gators up close. My kids always have fun at Gatorland. They love the kids splash area, which is nice to cool off in the summer heat. They have a small petting zoo. The shows are fun. The annual pass is affordable. There are some neat things in the gift shop. Go early in the summer, it gets very hot during the day.

I went to Gatorland about 7 years ago when I first got married. We were bored one day and my sister was here visiting from canada and she wanted to see some gators. We had fun because it was a goofy day and the gators were fun to watch. I guess it could get a bit scary for kids, but mayber not. I'll try taking my girls there one day and see. It's a cute little place for when you have nothing to do. But make sure you go on a cooler day!

This is the best place to take out-of-town guests to give them a feel of old time Florida. And believe me, you can easily spend a whole day there. The kids absolutely love it. Looking at real gators really opens there eyes to the wonder of nature. We just never get there as much as we should. Highly recommend Gatorland as an original place to visit.

This place was so amazing. Gives you an entirely different perspective on these land/water dwelling animals. Shocked me to find out they're even farmed as a food source. Watching them jump for food was great. Walking around and seeing them in what appears to be the wild was awesome and made you feel like they could eat you. You see all the levels of growth. Don't miss this place it is fun. Be sure to take a picture with a live aligator, we get lots of comments about our shirt picture.
PROS: Unique and information. Who would've thought even a food source.
CONS: Kinda far out, you really need a car cause cab fare is ridiculous.

We were pleasantly surprised by this attraction on our recent trip to Orlando. The kids loved the fact that you entered through a giant alligator mouth. The shows were entertaining and ran frequently enough. We also liked that they frequently rescue alligators that would otherwise be killed for invading residential areas. It's a nice attraction if you have a couple of hours free from visiting some of the areas larger attractions.

My husband and I have annual passes to Gatorland. This is a great place to go with fmily or friends. We try to go twice a month, if only to walk through their nature trail (through the swamp) They allow you to fee the gators, and these tiny beautiful birds with nectar. They are in the process of building a childrens play place also. They have many animal attractions including Judy the Bear (we love her). So don't miss out on this original Florida attraction.
PROS: Great Family Fun
CONS: Gets a little hot in the Summer time

This is no amusement park, no rides inside. But it IS part of the perfect Florida vacation. You have not been to Florida until you go to Gatorland. I have never been to a place like it. It is all about aligators, dozens of em. They even do shows with them like Gator Jumping. You can find out so much stuff about aligators here. And you can actually try some aligator meat! Where have you ever done that? I know I havent. It comes in aligator ribs or aligator nuggets, try em both. Its a weird taste, but meat is meat I RWALLY REALLY recommend it.
