    OK, so we had high expectations and we stopped here for a different experience than going to the Florida parks. This place was a huge disappointment. It took forever upon arrival to get checked in and to pay for our races. They were only two groups in front of us and I believe we waited in line for about 30 to 40 minutes after we entered our information at the kiosks. As we waited for our race, we stopped at the bar to get soda and water. The young lady working the bar seemed be a little high or off or something was wrong with her. She kept stopping, forgetting orders, putting her head down, laughing and giggling being really silly for no apparent reason. We went with a group of five, and when it was our turn to race, we were given the rules and we put on helmets and were seated in the go karts for another 15 minutes until another race completed. There were a few kids with us too from another party. The other race paused several times, and there was a big incident where someone was actually bleeding. people were running and everything! We should have requested a refund and gotten out of the karts at that moment, but we didn't. Right before our race was to begin, they added one last person to the race who had his own helmet maybe a regular or an employee. We would've had much more fun without this character joining us. (Blue shirt guy standing in my pic) The race started and as we were trying to get a feel for the kart to figure out how they work testing speed, the clown they let join crashed into me several times. He was not only smacking into me, he was smacking into several people trying to make his time and not one time did they pause the race for him or ask him to stop what he was doing or remove him. Me trying to speed up to go away from this person made a mistake when I was going into a turn and I hit another car pushing gas by accident instead of the brake and immediately the race was paused and I was removed from the race with the other person I ran into. One booboo and removed? The teen I hit and I were both pretty certain that it was not on purpose and as we were talking, he agreed that someone was hitting everyone. His father and his mother was watching the race and also agreed that it was crazy that we were removed and there was a person that was continuously hitting other people trying to make a time or something. We paid for 2 - 12 lap races and I did not want to continue to participate in the last. I was all done. My oldest daughter did not want to proceed either. My husband was pissed and informed them before they started the next race and told them that guy that they added in the previous race hitting folks not to be added to his last race. With him being removed, they had a smooth race. We were sorry we wasted my husband's money, but it just was not worth the headache to me after the first experience. I would certainly not recommend. Please get adults on site to monitor this operation. Was a huge disappointment.

    Unsafe at any speed. I went here for Father's Day and brought my two sons who are 12 and 10 respectively. We bought the 3 lap session. The first session went fine and we were gearing up for the second session when they placed us in cars that drove significantly different than the first cars that basically had no traction. That's not the real problem though. There was a teenager that was driving extremely recklessly and twice did a takedown maneuver on both my boys spinning them out. Maybe a fluke but after that session was over the last session also had this same boy T bone my son as he was going around a corner. Both races resulted in more than 50% of the laps in caution with this joker causing mayhem. My son now has bruises up and down his back from the multiple hard hits. You would think that it would end there but after 10 laps on the second race my younger son's car simply stopped on the track. They had him walk back to the staging area during a caution but didn't credit him any laps or another race. Also, at no point did any of the people working there do a seatbelt check on my kids. It wasn't until afterwards I found that they said they were sliding around the seats. Last and probably least but still annoying is that I now have a pair of ruined shorts. Whatever they use to clean the cars got all over my shorts (black stuff) and it won't come out. Having been through Skip Barber racing program I'm simply appalled at the lack of safety that the employees exhibited. Someone is going to get seriously hurt if they don't turn things around and kick out these reckless kids. As it is, it's just gross negligence. Skip this place and go somewhere else where they have some sense of concern for safety and their customers satisfaction.

    If you've never been to any K1 location, you're missing out on the best electric go carts around. This particular location was no different than the one in Miami but with the main track much longer and more challenging. After 1 session, my fingers were numb as could be and I couldn't move them after I was done even with wearing my gym gloves, but on my second time out, I was able to get the top 11th fastest time of the week with heavy traffic too. A much more difficult track but one that will keep you alert trying to hone in on the track skills. Front staff and track staff were as friendly as could be and very appreciated; I asked the starter if he could place me and my racing partner to the front and he obliged, that way would be mostly out of traffic but that didn't last long after we both started lapping most of the others. Note: This place is so much better than the iDrive place that's close to the Orlando Premium Outlets that's full of tourists and most people that can't drive.

    Let's go

So Andrettis is an indoor karting, laser tag, and game room located right next to the Convention Center on International Drive. This place definitely was easily accessible from the main road and had plenty of parking in their private parking lot. So on the day of our event, upon arrival, we were greeted immediately and checked in quickly and efficiently. The staff were all very kind and helpful! The party room was located in the back of the building and was a pretty spacious room, with its own private bathroom. For our birthday package we opted for the laser tag, and arcade option for the kids and it kept them occupied for a few hours. Now for the food, I was very impressed by the quality and presentation of all the items we selected! Yes the food was just your average fried bar food... but I thought everything was super fresh and all came out very quick. The pizza, wings, and cheese curds were outstanding! Lastly, our party attendant was top notch! She was very attentive, had great communication, and made sure we had everything we needed. Overall, I will say that even though the birthday package at Andretti's is a bit on the pricier side... we thought it was definitely worth it... my nephew had a very memorable birthday!

    As you can see from my review history, I usually leave positive reviews when I am impressed and…read morerarely post negative comments when I am disappointed. However, I feel compelled to write a negative one in this case. On 3/6, I purchased two Gold Packages for myself and my 13 year old daughter. Each package includes two races. The representative who helped us explained that if we only completed one race that day, the remaining race would be stored as a credit on our membership cards. We therefore used only one race on 3/6. When we returned the next day, the representative at the counter, Desi, told us the next race would start in about six minutes. However, when I presented our membership cards, she said she could not see the remaining race credit. She then began asking questions such as whether we had purchased only one Gold Package and shared it, and whether we had receipts. It was clear she suspected we were trying to misuse the system. She continued questioning us for several minutes until I finally asked her to call the manager. While the manager was looking up the information, I logged into my credit card account to show proof of purchase. When I approached the counter with that information, the manager said rather casually, "Oh, we already found it." Unfortunately, by that time we had missed the race we could have joined and had already spent about 20 minutes standing at the counter. No one initially apologized for the inconvenience. When I told the manager that Desi should apologize, the manager responded, "It was not our fault. It was a system error. Sorry." Desi then said, "You did not even give me a chance," and tossed the race tickets onto the counter before trying to walk away. When I said that if I had not asked for the manager she likely would have continued questioning us suspiciously, she responded in a hostile tone, "If you want to take a picture of my badge, you can." The entire interaction was unnecessarily confrontational and disappointing. System errors can happen, but how staff handle them matters. A simple apology and professional attitude would have made a big difference.

I also liked that there's no entry fee for non-riders and you can purchase rides à la carte. I ended up paying $12 for a go-kart ride and LOVED it We got there around 12 PM and it wasn't crowded at all. The lines were super short, so the students were able to ride things 3-4 times with no problem, which made it even more worth it. One of the best deals was the all day dining pass (you have to buy it online). For $24, you get 2 meals and a snack, which is a steal compared to the regular menu prices. Our first stop was Cluckees where we had tenders, wings, and fries. The portions were HUGE and everything was tasty, especially the fries. None of us could even finish our food! For our snack, we grabbed ice cream. The kids loved it, but it wasn't my favorite. Later, we went back to Cluckees for a chicken sandwich and fries for dinner. This time it wasn't as good as earlier. Maybe a different cook or just an off moment. We didn't spend time in the arcade and stayed mostly outside. The park is a pretty decent size with plenty to do. Even as the day went on and traffic picked up, it never felt overly packed. The staff was friendly and very laid back, which added to the relaxed vibe of the day. Overall, it was a good experience. The kids really enjoyed it. I'd give it a 3.5. Btw I think there is a bee problem there. I saw bees flying around often. Not enough to ruin the experience, but I definitely noticed them.

I was exhausted from a full day of travel the night before but their hours were flexible for me to be able to stop in on my free time. If you are just going into the gator spot you can skip the ticket counter and head right over to The Gator Spot. Staff working the gift shop have a window that opens to the entrance where they will scan your wrist band (admission is free with fun spot wrist bands). Admission just to the Gator spot is only $6. I purchased that and the option to feed the gators. I wish they had pointed out the Ultimate admission offer that you get admission, a photo & feeding for a discounted price - I did end up purchasing photos as well as some fun stuff in the gift shop. Everyone I encountered working at the Gator spot were so friendly & sweet. They have 4 alligator enclosures, photo ops, tortoise, monitor lizard & bird enclosure. It is a small are but exactly what I was looking for. I was able to feed the gators fish while going in the enclosure and posing in the pit for a photo. They had baby alligators, yearlings, 5-6 year olds and one really large guy in his own pin. At the photo area you can hold Cheesecake an Albino Alligator or Grumpy a feisty little female gator or a python. I waited for my opportunity while the photographer did some photos of the family ahead of me. It was pretty comical watching the reactions of people when they get held the animal or freaking out asking why the live animal is moving while they hold them. There was no one after me so I asked if I could get a photo with Cheesecake & Grumpy so I could make my mom a Mother's Day Card. Cheesecake was a very calm gator with very beautiful intriguing eyes, she is very mellow and would be good for those unsure about holding one. Grumpy on the other hand had been feisty all day according to the worker. She was moving and wiggling around. The group in front of me jumped up and asked why she doing that when she started wiggling. I don't know if she just liked me or if she could sense how awesome I thought this was but she was so calm when I held her, she even closed her eyes while I had her. The worker was surprised at how still she was for me. This was such a great experience and the staff was so friendly. This was a great small stop to see some gators without having to spend a lot of money or being short on time. I would highly suggest checking out if you are passing through the area.

I don't think you have to buy it but we did for $20 just to remember our time here. You can also feed them with alligator food you can purchase. I really enjoyed seeing the many alligators they had and the baby ones too. They have white albino one that's pretty cool. Then there is "big nasty" the biggest of all there. My fam and friends all had a good time and it was def a FL experience seeing these ancients beasts.

The prices were super cheap ($16 for 1 round with 2-Players); the location was nestled conveniently on I-Drive with a decent parking lot; and service was friendly. The theming is very kitschy, cute, and fun -- I loved the "Old Florida" theme and feel! But the whole course gave off an air of neglect and dilapidation. You can tell that many parts of the course need to be better maintained and updated; especially the live animal enclosures. I also saw broken deck boards throughout the course. At the very least, they look well-fed. But the enclosures felt small for the amount of large animals they had. The turtle had some minor pyramiding of the shell and the tank for some of the fish were filthy. The mini-golf portion felt fine -- it wasn't the best maintained that I've seen, but it was decently challenging and fun. I really appreciated that a good amount of the courses were under shade because it's hot right now. Overall, if you're just looking for a cheap activity in the afternoon, Gator Golf will definitely meet your needs; but I wish they would charge a bit more and reinvest that money to the caretaking of the animals and improvements to the grounds. In the current state, it feels like they know the place needs work, but are trying to squeeze out every penny they can get from the course until they can just close it down (this is not a criticism of the employees, but rather management).

I recommend purchasing the head sock as it lets the helmet glide on with ease. Prices are still kinda high for one race and I didn't see anything that looked like you saved money with more races. There are two tracks, basically and adult track and a child track. The carts can be pretty speedy, but they're controlled by big brother who seems to let the field drive at the pace of the field. On some laps, I felt I was going faster than on other laps. It's neat for the start/finish to slow down the cars, but I'd rather have full power the entire rest of the race. I could see myself coming here again as long as the crowds don't make it unreasonable. I guess if you did have a race time an hour or two away, there are many other things to do.
