Who knew gators could jump, raise your hands. I sure did not. Not until I rented a bus from an Orlando FL charter bus company with a group of friends, that is. You see, we made a quick pit stop (which turned out to be a long stop in the end because we were simply having such an amazing time) at Orlando FL's Gatorland. Let me start off by saying that I only touch reptiles like snakes and stuff under intense duress. Other than that, dogs are for me. Anyway, was it fun in Gatorland? It was fantastic!
Gatorland is about 70-acre big and there are thousands of alligators in there and you get to see them up close and personal. Sure, it eeked some people out but it was really fun to watch them. It was close but not so close so it was good with the kids. Making full use of the space, there is also a mini water park that kids just splash around in with wild abandon. Is it all about crocs and nothing else? No, there were other barnyard animals like goats, lams and fun, furry animals. This is in the petting zoo part of Gatorland. So, if you ever think of organizing a group trip with the services of an Orlando FL charter bus rental company, be sure to add Gatorland into your itinerary.
What I really love about this Orlando FL tourist attraction is that despite thinking that it was a tourist trap in the beginning, I saw that it was not all cheesiness. There's a beautiful boardwalk that creeps through a cypress swamp. Absolutely beautiful! You can't even begin to imagine the number of pictures we took here at this Orlando FL tourist attraction alone. We had a bite at their diner which featured one of the animals they kept there – yes, they had Smoked Alligator Ribs and Nuggets too. Did I try them? No, thank you! But I heard from other customers that it tasted fantastic. So, give it a go if you have the palate for it.
All in all, the price was good because of the number of stuff there was there and the highlight for me was the Jumparoo which brings me back to whether you knew that alligators could jump...approximately 10 feet, for your info! It was such definitely an eye-opener. The friendly employees also made our experience here precious and memorable.
Head over for some wild, chilly fun! But not before checking out some affordable Orlando FL charter bus rental rates, of course.
