I brought my sister and children here and it was a great experience. If you love chocolate you have to visit this place it is tucked back off I-Drive you would never know it was back there. The people are very nice so kind & patient. We got to make our own chocolate bars, then we had a chocolate wine pairing that was amazing. The people are the ones who make this experience awesome along with the amazing chocolate.

Scott was so real, funny, and engaging! My son was the only kid in the group (12 yrs) and he made sure the tour was educational, but in a “fun” way. We saw several alligators, but the boat ride alone was worth the cost. One of our favorite Florida experiences!!!

This was our first time on an airboat, and it was amazing! We had a wonderful time with our tour guide Scott! Would definitely recommend as a summer activity, we went in December, and it was a bit too cold.

The pirate show was very well choreographed and overall well worth the cost. The dinner was good with a whole half chicken being offered. Weight staff was very friendly and attentive.

The walk through wildlife park is amazing. Didn't expect it too have so many animals from numerous countries around the world.
