2. One new attraction that Gatorland
is very proud to present that you
won’t find anywhere else is their
collection of extremely rare white
alligators.
3. Gators normally come in that sort
of greenish-grey that makes for
camouflage in the swamps but
these four come in a stunning
shade of ivory with exquisite blue
eyes.
4. OK, so what can you expect to do
and see at Gatorland? Is it the sort
of thing that will be right for your
family?
5. Is this the sort of thing you want to
book a ticket to when you make all
your arrangements including
booking stroller rentals in
Orlando?
6.
7. Let’s start with the animals. Of
course, there’s the alligators in all
shapes and sizes, including the
white ones, but there’s more to
Gatorland than that.
8.
9. While the amazing local lizards are
the stars of Gatorland, you’ll find
critters with fur and critters with
feathers ranging from the wild to
the mild.
10. On the milder end of things, you
and your children can enjoy seeing
flamingos and giant tortoises and
turkeys.
11. And on the wilder end, you’ve got
pythons, crocodiles (including the
massive saltwater crocodiles), and
some smaller critters of the spooky
kind that you can get up close
with…
12. Gatorland is very laid back and
much less intense than the other
theme parks in the Orlando area.
13.
14. But there’s plenty of fun on offer. If
you want to watch a thrilling show,
catch the Alligator Jumparoo where
you can see alligators race and leap
from the water to grab their lunch
– it’s amazing how high these
animals can leap.
15. You can watch the alligator
wrestling match and if you’re super
keen, you can even have a go at
being a “rookie wrestler” where the
older members of your family can
pose in an alligator-wrestling photo
shoot with a real, live alligator
16. But smaller children can enjoy the
petting zoo and feeding all the
animals – a very simple but
extremely popular activity for
people of all ages.
17.
18. You can also have a go with the Up
Close Encounters – what’s in that
box? Will it be a tarantula or a
snake or something else that you’ll
handle?
19. Gatorland isn’t heavy on the rides –
it’s all about taking it at your own
pace and enjoying the wonders of
the natural world. But it does have
a few on offer.
20. The Gatorland Express offers a
gentle train ride around the
attractions, while the new Gator Zip
Line allow you to almost fly
through the air across the top of
the park strapped into a harness
that runs along a wire – like the old
playground flying foxes but bigger
and better.
21. And when you want to let your
children get out of the stroller and
have a run about, you can take
them to the Gator Gully Splash Park
to have fun in the water
(remember to pack your swimming
gear and your towels – and book
stroller rentals in Orlando that
have plenty of luggage space)
22. And you’ve got the usual themed
eateries and gift shops that you’d
expect from any good theme park.
23. One real advantage of Gatorland is
that it is priced very competitively
and is a good choice for families
who want to have a vacation in this
part of Florida but don’t want to
break the bank.
