    A fun place to spend a couple of hours. They have mini golf, a tiny laser maze, a small arcade and the option to feed turtles and baby gators.

    Thanks fellow Yelpers for rating this place highly when we were in Apopka for some pre-birthday fun. We had the best time!! The girl at the front desk was super helpful. Sadly I forget her name. She was blonde, if that helps. lol We ended up getting the full package that included mini golf, arcade tokens, feeding and holding alligators, mining, and laser tag. And a take-home golf ball. lol. It was around $85 for both of us, a little pricey, but totally worth it. The mini golf was so fun! One of the best courses (?) I've ever played. Really well-done with the theming, challenging, and challenges within the game where you spin a wheel for an added challenge (move the ball with your foot was a least-favorite of mine). The gator feeding and holding was super fun too! They have dried chicken for them to eat. I was surprised the baby gator I held so so cold, but they're cold-blooded (duh!). The baby gators mouth was taped closed and I wasn't nervous at all. The husband opted out of the holding, though. The arcade was tiny, but I was fine with it as they had pinball (my fave!) And they had one of those claw-machines and I actually won a rubber ducky! Mining was fun too. They bring you a bag and you soft through it. We found some pretty gemstones and out them in a clear lamp we have to remember our fun time. The only thing that was lackluster was the laser tag. We must've missed the instructions, but I think we were supposed to go through it like bank-robber style. That was the only option for 2 players. My middle aged body ducked and weaved and made it all the way to the end and I hit the hand mark and.. nothing. So that was disappointing. I had an amazing time and would totally return! This would be a great place for a date or to bring the family. Highly recommend!

    Enjoyed Congo River golf this weekend! It was about $16 per person per game. 18 holes and they were all pretty fun to play! It appeared the grass turf was recently replaced so all the holes were really nice! Everything was well taken care of! They have baby gators up front you can hold and feed for a price if you wanted. Really liked this put put, everything was great!

    This was such a great mini golf course! Granted, I'm 35 and haven't mini golfed in over a decade, so maybe I'm out of the loop, but I had the most fun evening their with my boyfriend. Highlights: We were given an optional scavenger hunt for the course, and if we found all of the items, we'd get scratcher cards for coupons (we found the items and felt a grand sense of accomplishment!) The course itself was really great and had waterfalls and photo ops. There were spin-the-wheel handicaps, such as "hit your first shot while closing your eyes," or "you get to stand on the green anywhere you'd like during your opponent's first shot," and we played these wherever we found them. I thought it was a fun added challenge. For people into alligators (not me), you can feed live alligators as well. I highly recommend!

    Loved our expierence mini golfing with family! You can get the opportunity to feed and/or hold the gators! Can't wait to come back!

    We went during a very HOT day in Florida. I would not recommend going after 1pm and before 6pm. We were able to purchase discounted tickets through working at UCF at $9.00 compare to the $16.00+. I have always been a big fan of put put golf. Congo River had an excellent course and fantastic customer service. They provide a scavenger hunt while you are golfing to look for items throughout the course. If you get them correct, they provide you with scratch offs (coupons for the venue) and a kids medal. After golfing, you have options to play arcade games, feed baby alligators, or do mining. Definitely a fun afternoon, but, recommend going in the morning or after 7pm.

    Pretty typical mini golf place for Florida. Luckily the day we went wasn't too crowded, but we still managed to get stuck behind a really slow couple. Luckily we were able to find a good number of shady areas to sit while we waited for them to finish flirting at every hole. The scavenger hunt was fun, but in the end only won a $5 off coupon for a t-shirt which I wasn't going to buy.

    I was shocked when I was told this location has been around for years and years. The place is immaculately clean and well maintained. The course is adorned with water falls, caverns, caves and many other props. Plus, as an added bonus, there are optional variation "spinners" at the beginning of the holes. You spin the dial and you have to do what it lands on. Don't worry, it's nothing crazy but adds to the fun.

    Congo River golf is always a fun time. Also, you can buy a "replay" which is just pre-purchasing your next round for only $8 a person. This spot is good for a date nice, family outing, or hanging out with friends. There is also an arcade, laser tag, area to feed alligators, and a gem mine here so there's something for everyone! The coarse has an old safari Jeep and even has an airplane that looks like it crashed into the rocks! There are numerous water features here and plenty of stairs and an area where you cross a wooden bridge so make sure that your level of fitness is adequate to make it around. There's also a scavenger hunt along the coarse and at the end you get a card to scratch and have a chance to win $1 off golf or mining, free golf or other prizes. Parking is in the back and always has room.

    Congo River Golf & Exploration offers a family-friendly experience across several tourist hot-spots, the location in Altamonte Springs far from International Drive and thus far less crowded but just as much fun. From arcade to gator handling and the mini-golf itself Congo River is very well maintained and fair priced, with safety-oriented staff.

    Great mini golf course, lots of fun. Challenging but not overly hard. Lots of stairs up and down, swinging bridge.

We ordered some beers and nachos to share, and honestly the nachos were really good and a big portion, loaded with plenty of meat which we loved. The staff was friendly and food came fast. The kids had fun playing mini golf while the adults got to relax, chat, and catch up, which made it a perfect setup for a group outing. Overall, it was a fun and easygoing experience. Definitely a great spot for birthdays or just hanging out with friends.

I really liked that they have QR codes at every table so you can order everything right from your phone and they bring it out to you, which makes things super easy when you're in a group. The food was actually really good too. The buffalo chicken dip and nachos were both great, and the chicken tenders were solid. The blue cheese especially stood out, it tasted homemade and was really good. Beyond the mini golf, there's a ton to do. They have foosball, ping pong, cornhole, giant Connect 4, and other games, which makes it more than just a golf spot. The golf is the only thing you have to pay for, so it's nice that you can still hang out and play games without committing to that. Service was excellent, especially considering how busy it was. Overall, such a fun atmosphere and a great place to celebrate something or just hang out. I'd definitely go back

    This was our first time here and we had a great time. New Year's Day, of course it was busy, but…read moreeverything went smoothly. Everything was clean and everyone was very friendly and helpful! Someone definitely had fun creating this course, fun little details like leaves and fossil imprints in the cement, and the Stanley Livingston theme. Every couple of holes there was a wheel of fun, everyone spins, if you want, and it adds a little thing for every player to do for that hole. Just another way to add some entertainment. Towards the end you get up to the tree top and get a nice view of everything. I mean, it's just I-drive and some parking lots, but it's a nice change of scenery. There's also a small arcade and some basketball hoops, but we didn't use them. The gift shop is nice and great for visitors. They have live alligators, and you can feed them and get a picture holding them if you want. Being a Floridian, I've done that a few times, so I passed. Other than that, I think I covered it all. If you're looking for some mini golf and maybe some vacation stuff, this is a great place.
