Visited here recently for my niece's birthday, and it was quite an adventure to say the least! Took…read moreus about an hour and half from the Cumming area to get there. We bought tickets online and they had our name and feed purchases ready when we pulled up. Greeter gave us our buckets and explained the rules. We were probably one of the first cars through, so the animals were sort of hanging out far from the road. First animal we see is an emu in the distance on my niece's side. We are so focused on looking at that one and trying to get her excited, that I didn't even notice one had sneaked up on my side of the car and literally stuck his head in the window and grabbed feed from the bucket on my lap which startled me a bit which then proceeded to startle my niece...and that essentially set the tone for the rest of our time there. Next we came to the zebras. We were warned that they were a little pushy and had teeth like donkeys. You're taught to hold the bucket outside the car, but they pushed themselves inside the window (on my niece's side of course) and kept trying to grab the bucket, which just ended up dumping half of it into the car. We also saw some quiet, polite deer in the woods as well as some antelope in the distance. Next, we saw some llamas (or maybe alpacas). They too are a little pushy, but not as bad as the zebras. I think one even stopped at my window and smiled to pose for me to take his picture before he helped himself to another half a bucket of feed. Then we get to the camel. All prior animals were able to literally get in our car. The camel is inside a pen thankfully....He comes to the edge of his fence and we pulled close enough to where I could hold the bucket out my niece's side. He immediately grabbed the bucket from my hand, held it over his head to eat it, then dropped the bucket on the ground. I'm thinking I have to get the bucket back because I don't want to get in trouble. Problem #1 is, the first rule is to stay in your car at all times. Problem #2, some of the emus have now followed us and are quickly approaching from the rear. I climb into the front passenger seat, open the door, grab the bucket and quickly get back into the car. Meanwhile, the camel has moved on. He got what he wanted and had lost interest, figuring he would just wait on the next unsuspecting victim in the next car. We pass some water buffalo and the longhorns and a couple of highland cows. An ostrich quickly runs up the road in front of us so we can't get away. He helps himself and seemed a little more polite and pretty than the emus, so I let him snack. Eventually, we found the parking area and petting zoo. Mind you, there are signs telling you not to pet them or feed from your hand...but still call it a "petting zoo." Fed the goats and a huge pig. Made our way to the giraffes and someone shared some lettuce with my niece so she could feed them. She didn't love it, but didn't freak as much. Then we go to the aviary. We had bought three sticks with sticky seed on it, all of which I was carrying when we entered. I think we walked into a Hitchcock movie.... Parakeets swarm us the second we enter. Land on the sticks, our arms and my niece's head. That went over well.... Tried to direct her attention to the pretty birds and bright colors. Figured we should just exit quickly so we did. Went to gift shop where she bought a stuffed highland cow and all was well again!

Atlanta Safari Park is a great place to spend couple of hours with family, kids, a date or even…read moresolo as you drive on their 2-mile paved road through 156 acres of open land. While I wouldn't say they are on the same level as Wild Animal Safari south of Atlanta, they do have a decent offering of animals at a fairly reasonable admission price. Included with the drive-thru safari admission is a small walking zoo with farm animals, a few giraffes, and a parakeet enclosure. The giraffes just got a few new arrivals, but they were not yet on display. You may also encounter a free roaming peacock, to whom we did not see this visit. For a small fee you can purchase lettuce for the giraffes and seed sticks for the parakeets. But be forewarned, these tiny birds are a real joy, but they have absolutely no sense of personal boundaries! When I ran out of seed they landed on my head and shoulders, nibbled on my ear and tried to go inside my jacket pockets! You can also ride on the open wagon instead of driving your own vehicle when it is available (currently only on weekends). Cost for this is $10, but it also comes with a bucket of feed. During this past visit, one of the camels was being very ornery and bit my car door (causing some slight damage) and also tried to chew on my mirror until I drove away. He also tore the feed bucket right out of my sister's hands and tossed it on the ground! LOL It was a chilly day in February (around 45 degrees), so the animals were not very active, unlike our first visit last spring. We drove several football field stretches without seeing any animals, nor was the volume of animals the same. Still, when we did find them in groups here and there, it was a fun experience. Beware of the llamas and their fondness for spitting! If they are annoyed for ANY reason, you will surely have a fun story to tell. So keep your camera ready! FAVORITE THINGS: * The Highland Cows * Any of the baby animals * Feeding the Parakeets * Feeding the giraffes * DODGING llama spit * Riding with people who are uncomfortable with how in-your-face some of the animals can get! [ FINAL THOUGHTS ] In my opinion, warmer is a better time to visit than cooler and earlier in the day when the animals are hungrier is better than later when several cars have already offered them feed. ENJOY!!! NOTE: Kangaroos are expected to arrive by late spring of 2026 and a little birdie also told me there are several other surprises on the way!

This is an amazing place!!…read more Plenty of parking and port-a-potties We came for unicorn day!! It was amazing! All the horses had beautiful horns and painted hair (like pastel chalk that does not hurt them). All animals are under the most wonderful care and we are given instructions on how to approach them and observe them. Amongst many things we saw a baby chick being hatched, baby bunnies, adult bunnies, donkeys, sheep's, horses, pigs, pony's, goats, doves, chickens, roosters, chicks and of course UNICORNS! Staff was out of this world helpful!! So sweet and kind. It was a hot day and they let my little nephew play in the clean water they had to cool off! We even got a tractor ride! They have a beautiful tree swing and so many cute picture spots! Pack a picnic (but be careful not to throw any food on the ground the animals each have specific diets and we wouldn't want them to eat anything that could hurt their stomachs). Also there is hand sanitizer but I would suggest bringing some soap and water if you want to wash your hands. Just ask for the best place to do that! They have a pretty Montessori style here. You're given help in approaching the animals and donkeys sheep and goats are sitting all around and you can walk around and pet them. There are brushes set aside for you to brush them too!! The more attention specific animals like the bigger bunnies were handled with the wonderful caregivers! Allowing people to hold the more socialized animals even! Also the unicorns were beautiful with flower leis and gorgeous horns! Absolutely a must to do for any birthday, field trip, or just a way to get kids used to animals in a wonderfully comfortable setting.

They were great with the kids and did a fantastic job entertaining and educating the kids on the farm animals. Speaking of farm animals, they had a variety! They had horses, donkeys, bunnies (including big ones), goats, pigs, chickens, and so much more. The party was about two hours and the team at The Art Barn kept everyone busy. The activities were interactive. We got to pet and brush the farm animals, ride a horse, paint, go on a hayride and explore the farm. The party area is under a big tree, so it's cool and shaded. There were 6 picnic tables which was more than enough for our party. Two Porta Potties are available and they were cleaned prior to the start of the party. They were the cleanest porta potties I have ever used! They also had a hand cleaning station equipped with wipes and hand sanitizer. The Art Barn is a great place for parties, field trips, etc! I highly recommend checking it out.

Our tour guides, Jamie and Ray, were absolutely incredible -- kind, knowledgeable, patient, and it was so obvious how much they genuinely love their jobs and the animals. Their passion made the entire experience even more special. We brought our 4- and 7-year-old, and they loved every minute of the safari and barn tour -- especially getting to feed the giraffes! The animals look extremely well cared for and have so much open land to roam. I also really appreciate that this is a no-touch facility -- even guests and guides aren't allowed to pet the animals, which shows how much they prioritize the animals' wellbeing. We stayed one night in a tent, and it was beyond luxurious. The tents are beautiful and thoughtfully designed -- not a single detail was missed. The beds and pillows were so comfortable! At sunset and sunrise, so many animals wandered by. It was peaceful, breathtaking, and something we'll never forget. We walked to the campfire that night and made s'mores, which was the perfect ending to an already magical day. This place is truly a hidden gem. We will absolutely be back -- hopefully very soon!

It's such an amazing experience and less than hour from Atlanta. A few things to know: There isn't anything on the property so you will need to pack games and stuff. There also isn't anywhere to really walk around and explore. So we spent our time either in our room or back in the downtown Madison area. There seems to be a lot of confusion between the various teams and even another person in our your group stated that some of the information she was provided did not match. Everyone was super nice though and also anytime there was an issue, they got it taken care of. I would opt for the upgraded your that takes you behind the scenes and allows you to feed the giraffes because the reg safari has limited animals to see. You can see most of them from driving around or from the balcony of your tent. Now waking up and being able to sit out on your balcony and watch the animals literally in your backyard is really cool. They are still building and growing and would love to come back again in a year or 2. If you can swing it, spend a night in the giraffe suite
