I loved the chimpanzee hugging me and giving my husband a fist bump. The photographers know exactly when to photo for the best experience. You receive several photos in the package. There were planned bathroom breaks, two refreshment snack stops and a terrific lunch which included a variety of food and drinks. We only wish there were photos of the tiger climbing the post and white tiger chasing the ball. We know we could not be near the tigers for safety but to have these photos we be appreciated. Hopefully next year we can attend and have these two photos added to the collection. Thank you for caring about all these animals. Rena and Darcy

This price is extremely fair as I've been to several different animal experiences in the past, the only difference is you can see the love the staff has for these animals and it's just so magical! Thank you to this amazing staff for everything and making sure all the experiences here are extra special!

Reptile Lagoon @ South of the Border - Hamer, SC…read more (3 out of 5 stars) If you're visiting South of the Border, one of the more unusual attractions on-site is the Reptile Lagoon--it's advertised as one of the largest indoor reptile exhibits in the U.S., and it definitely has a wide variety of snakes, lizards, turtles, and of course... alligators and crocodiles. My husband, daughter, and I checked it out during our stop (we also spent over an hour in Pedro's Mexican Shop West--another quirky and fun spot here). But unfortunately, just like much of the South of the Border compound, the Reptile Lagoon desperately needs a fresh coat of paint. It's looking dingy inside and out, and that really takes away from the experience. Here's my biggest concern: While the smaller reptiles seem to be in okay enclosures for now, the alligators and crocodiles are kept in spaces that are far too small for their size and needs. It was honestly upsetting. These are large, powerful animals that deserve much more space, proper enrichment, and better conditions. I strongly believe they should be relocated to a proper sanctuary where they can thrive. The baby gators might be okay temporarily, but once they grow, they'll need a better environment too. The exhibit itself could be great if given some attention--cleaner enclosures, updated paint, better lighting, and more naturalistic habitats would go a long way. It's still worth checking out if you're already at South of the Border, but I'd love to see some major improvements before I could recommend it fully. South of the Border Overview: This place has a lot of fun, nostalgic roadside charm, dating back to 1949. But it's clear that the entire compound--from shops to attractions--needs upkeep. With the right care, it could be a truly great destination again.

We've had a house in Sunset for close to 10 years but have somehow never made our way over here…read moreuntil this past weekend. We've heard tons of good things about it too. We came on a day when we thought the weather at the beach was going to be less than ideal - lucky for us, the Zipline tours operate rain or shine. We ended up having great weather for it too! It was super easy to book. Once we got there, they got us kitted out, then we went through a quick (yet thorough) instruction on how to safely zipline. It was a group of 5 of us plus our guides. The tour took about 2 - 2.5 hours, and you get to go on 10 different ziplines. It was a fun way to spend an afternoon. Especially if the weather is going to be less than ideal and you need some way to kill time. Our tour guides, Chase, Miles, and Zach, were great! Thanks y'all!

Traveled to Myrtle Beach for the weekend, and my husband happened to have brought our skates with…read moreus so we were hoping to find a skating rink while we were here. This was the only one we could find within a 50-mile radius, so we were really looking forward to it. Everything was going smoothly until we found a chicken bone at the bottom of our ICEE. I was utterly disgusted. Someone had to have been chewing on a chicken bone, thrown it into a cup, left the cup on the counter, and then someone--possibly the same person--picked up a random cup and immediately filled it with an ICEE. The thought of that happening was honestly nauseating. The manager did reimburse us for the skates and the ICEE, which we really appreciated. However, that doesn't change how disgusting it was. I honestly thought it was a chunk of ice that wouldn't break down until I opened the top. Just nasty.

Alligator Adventure was such a fun change of scenery from the beach and pool!…read more I took my nephews and they absolutely loved it. One of the coolest parts was getting to pet a baby alligator and learn some fun facts about them. We also got to watch a feeding, which was definitely a highlight! I really liked how interactive and informative the experience was. The kids were able to learn while still having a ton of fun, so it's a great activity for families. The park was also really clean, and I appreciated that they had fans throughout the park to help keep everyone cool in the South Carolina heat. They even have a snack bar for when you need a little break. Definitely recommend checking this place out if you're looking for something fun to do with the kids beyond the beach or pool!

Theres a few things for younger kids like the bubble station and a few others but to make it worth $30 I wouldnt go unless you kids meet the height requirement for all the attractions. Thankfully kids 4 and under are free admission but honestly if you have older and younger kids the younger ones are going to get bored. Also a lot of the attractions didnt work exactly as described or were not clean. They had an arcade near the ropes course for people waiting but it was pay per play which I wasn't going to do after paying $130 for my family to enter. They should make the arcade games included with admission.

I am writing this review as a concerned grandmother to warn other families about what happened to…read moremy two grandchildren, ages 10 and 12, during our visit. While we were at this business, a grown male employee made a sexually inappropriate comment directly to my grandchildren. The remark was explicit, disturbing, and completely unacceptable in any setting, but especially in a place that presents itself as family‑friendly. My priority was getting the children away from him and making sure they felt safe, but this incident has stayed with them and with me. A business that allows an adult employee to speak to children in a sexual way is not a safe environment, and parents and caregivers deserve to know this before bringing their kids here. I will not be returning, and I urge other families to take this experience seriously when deciding where to spend their time and money. If management chooses to keep people like this on staff or fails to address such behavior immediately and decisively, it tells you everything you need to know about how little they value children's safety.
