Overall a really good time at Wild Adventures Theme Park and a solid value for the entrance fee. Parking was easy with plenty of space which made getting in and out simple. The park has a good mix of rides and water attractions so there is enough to keep you busy. They also had a wide selection of animals on display which was great to see, though some of the habitats could have been a little bigger. The concert area looked legit even though we did not stay for the Taylor Swift cover band. Their lineup of performers also looks pretty strong so that is a nice bonus. The train ride to see the animals was worth it. We only waited about ten minutes but the line filled up fast so expect a longer wait if you go later. Lockers were also reasonably priced which was nice. The biggest downside was Waters Edge Brews and Bites. It seemed like the only place to get beer and it was pricey. More importantly it was very disorganized. It took a long time to get drinks and my stepdaughter waited a while for food as well. Everyone was friendly but it felt like no one really knew what was going on. I did not try the food myself so I cannot fully judge it. The park could also be a bit cleaner especially some of the bathrooms. Overall it is a fun park and worth checking out. I drove up from Gainesville and enjoyed it but would probably only come back if I was local or if there was a concert I really wanted to see. read more

We won tickets to Wild Adventures Theme Park at a local food festival and decided to make a day of it with our teenager and her friend. Overall, it was a fun experience with some highs and a few things that definitely need improvement. First thing to note is parking is an additional $18. Not a dealbreaker, but something to factor in. When you arrive, it may look like you should park farther out, but the entrance gate is actually closer to where you first come in, so keep that in mind. Once we got to the entrance, security and ticket scanning were quick and easy, which was a great start. The park itself has a really nice mix of rides and animal attractions. We especially loved the safari train. It was such a unique experience seeing animals like lions, tigers, and even an anteater, plus getting a glimpse of the on site camping area, which honestly looks like a really cool concept. I do wish we had taken advantage of the giraffe feeding. Ride wait times were surprisingly minimal for a Saturday, which was a huge plus. The vintage Ferris wheel was one of our favorites. It was not only fun but gave us some great views and photos from the top. Bathrooms throughout the park were consistently clean and well maintained, which I appreciated. However, the restroom near the garden had a sink that would not shut off, with water constantly running. That seems like something that should be addressed, not just for maintenance but also waste. Food prices were fairly reasonable for a theme park, with one exception being beer. At $10 per can, it felt a bit steep, and both times we went to grab one, the stands were clearly understaffed. At one point, the employee actually asked us to open our own beers, which was a first. It did not bother us too much, but waiting around 7 minutes just to get a few beers was a little surprising. We did make it over to the water park side and enjoyed the lazy river, but unfortunately storms cut that part of the day short. Every water area was clean as well. I wish we had more time there. The park also has a nice mini concert area, which is a great way to wind down the day with live music. There is even a buffet option that looked like a solid affordable choice, though we did not get a chance to try it. A couple more things to note. Lockers are an additional $18 to $22 for the day, which adds up quickly. While we had a good time overall, the park could definitely benefit from some updates and a good power washing in certain areas. All in all, Wild Adventures has a lot of potential. It is a unique mix of a theme park and zoo, and if you go in expecting something about half the scale of a major Florida theme park, with pricing somewhat similar to places like Hersheypark, you will have a good idea of what to expect. With some improvements and more attention to detail, this place could be really great. read more

Recently visited Wild Adventures and while it's a smaller park with some fun attractions, our experience was overshadowed by poor customer service. The most frustrating moment was when my child stepped out of line to put his backpack away before getting on a a ride. When he returned, an employee wrongly accused him of cutting the line and removed him from the line entirely. A little communication could have easily solved it but they didn't take the time to listen. They could've easily checked the cameras to see he had been waiting in line the entire time. We will not be returning and hope they improve their staff training and approach to guest interactions. read more

We did Wild Adventures. I went as the bus driver for the school and my wife went with me. I think the last time we've been here was with our grandkids back in 2019. A lot has changed since then!!!! * We rode a one roller coaster, the Horizon Wheel, the train, we saw all the animals, we ate lunch and dinner and had the unlimited drink package. * Everyone that works at the park is super friendly and very helpful! The food was good. The rides were fun. I just think now we are older (59 years old) the rides are now just not our thing!!!! I know the kids had a blast! But..... We did do a "thing". My wife talked me into getting season passes! When we broke down everything you get it's really not a bad price. You can even get a discount on the campground. We have an Rv and use it A LOT so we will definitely be back and will bring our grandkids and family back again and this time stay at the campground which is very nice. Thanks Wild Adventures for a great day. read more

Wild Adventures.... The park itself is spacious and the concept--a blend of amusement park, zoo, and water park--is great and is a while point in itself. The water park section was a solid break from the heat, and the lazy river and wave pool were definitely highlights. Also? The line SHORT to non-existent which added another point. One of the bright spots was the meal pack (whatever the official name is)--you get one meal, two snacks, and unlimited drinks for the day. That was clutch. Having access to cold drinks all day in the heat made a big difference, and being able to grab a quick snack without pulling out your wallet every time helped the value feel more worth it. Food quality was just mhem--typical theme park fare, nothing memorable--but the convenience of the meal pack elevated the day. BUT, was it me or did it seem everyone that worked that was annoyed lol the nicest person was the one lady at parking. Not PHENOMENAL Not Horrible. Forget to mention, the tickets were cheap! Not really missing anything but also feels like it's missing something. Can't explain it but, overall, Wild Adventures is a park with charm and promise. Really wish I could give a 3.5 read more

Great place to visit and spend the day great concerts and hangout waterpark is awesome highly reccommend

This is an affordable theme park and it was a great time for my family. The wait times for the rides weren't bad. The only negative was the service I received at sugar shack because they were mixing up the orders resulting in a 30 minute wait time for 1 thing (fried Oreos). read more

We attended a company gathering here and had the best time!!! The park is a great size. Not too big or small. Lots to do. Definitely older but well kept. The staff was a hot or a miss on a friendly note but I am Not sure who could keep their sanity working with people all day either. Ha! We will definitely be back. Thank you!! read more

This venue gets some decent music groups which can be tempting. Resistance the urge to go early to the park. It is an absolute dump! Place is filthy. Severely understaffed. Waited over 40 minutes for a crappy personal pizza. Some people waited over an hour. Drink machine out of ice and some drinks. Kansas show was great, so if you go, just go straight to the concert and you will be good. read more

Rides were decent, however restaurants need A LOT of improvement. Cool morning, but coffee shop was not operational. Doors open, but lights out and no one inside...all day! Sugar shack, we were told at 11:00 it would open in 20 minutes, it did not open until after 2:00 and everything on the menu was not available. The wing shop had people requesting refunds because the wings were not completely cooked. Paradise Pizza was a nightmare....was told they were out of salads, but after waiting almost 45 minutes for 2 pizzas and a fruit cup, an entire box of salads were brought from the back and were sold to people behind us. Several restaurants never opened. To top it off, the family photo that we took on the way in could not be found in the system for purchase. Very disappointing. read more

We bought season tickets one year and LOVED it! Most rides you are able to get on in 5-10 minutes. We went on the 4th of July and they had an awesome fireworks display, Christmas they had it decorated and a play. Disney is magical - we've done it too but at Wild Adventures we weren't rushing to get in line for an hour. With kids this makes such a difference! read more

Great food for everyone, service was great. People were very friendly and the rides were excellent.

Not just no, but hell No! I guess you get what you pay for. The food establishments are filthy, hot inside, most attractions closed because broken, rude customer service! Please save your money! read more

On 19 Dec 2025, bought Christmas ornaments and when we got home over 4 hours later the names were starting to come off. So we wiped where the names were and they came right off. Apparently, the lady who sells them uses dry erase markers instead of permanent ink. read more

The rides are really fun!! They have concerts with lots of famous people! Food is ehh but the Mayfield ice cream shop is SO GOOD!! I 100% recommend read more

$39.99 on Groupon plus other deals. Theme park and water park and petting zoo all in one. Not bad for the price and less lines than Disney. Food was concession food, pretty much enough said. Lazy river, slides and roller coasters. Says no outside food but they don't really stress about it. We got rain out tickets cause it closed down cause of the thunder. We will be back read more

What a great place to bring the family. With annual passes possible to get under $100 (go with a cheap day pass and upgrade), why not?!? The rides are small but perfect for most children and young at heart adults. They have quite a few selections of food as well. I enjoyed their Buffalo wings and fries. They were some of the best I've had. Also, they have real live animals. Almost better then Disneys animal kingdom. I also have to mention the amazing festivals they have. Pumpkin spice and Christmas festival brings new food and beverages, performances, and unique activities to enjoy while you are there. Don't forget in summer time they have a whole water park to dive into. Overall a great place to come and check out! It's worth the extra drive! read more

Wow what a beautiful hidden gem in Georgia! I've been seeing signs for this place for years so I finally decided to come when I had some freetime and i wasn't disappointed. No it's not packed with a large amount of rollercoasters but the park is so large and well spread out, it doesn't matter. I enjoyed the homey feel to it and I loved that I was able to get a cheap ticket on groupon for 40 bucks. I've made a full tour of this place on youtube just search MrBucketlist Wild Adventures. Go here!!! read more

This place was pretty fun. It was worth the wait in lines. The lines were pretty long but the rollercoasters and water slides were worth it. The workers there are nice but the people there are kind of annoying. Their food is not the best. I got the cheese quesadilla. It was layers of cheese and butter. It was so greasy. read more

If you haven't been to this place yet, what are you waiting for? We went on a Friday during school hours to cut some of the line time down, which worked because we were able to ride all the rides that were available more than once. The downside was that the waterpark wasn't open and the two major rides I wanted to get on were down for the day. It's all good though, it just gives me a reason to come back. A favorite family fun spot of ours as well. The year pass is definitely worth it, you can not only visit year-round but get access to all the concerts and even more discounts. I haven't gotten my pass yet, but it is definitely on my list of things to do. read more

If you're looking for something to do and you don't want to go South to the costly amusement parks than head North to wild adventures. The adventures is a nice park it is clean and the workers are so friendly. They offers that they have make it so affordable for a family or even an individual to come and enjoy A-day at the park. Free parking to add to the value. They have a amusement park and they offer a water park also. They have a petting zoo with several animals to see and the seasonal special events ...no extra cost...like we attended this time, the pumpkin spice event and they have Halloween lights with free candy for the kids and they have a Christmas lights event. They offer great concerts and again doing all this at a affordable price. Due to Hurricane Ian they let our county in free. Yes free for one weekend! Who does that? Check out their offers on season passes and hook up on their blast for low cost fun and wild adventures! read more

While making a pitstop in southern Georgia, I had a chance to take my three teenage daughters here last week. Despite the fact that they have all been to Disneyland, Disney World and universal studios, they had an absolute great time here. The ride operators were so nice, which was a breath of fresh air. we had minimal lines and the roads were really fine. We definitely did not realize how what we would get on the river rapid ride so be prepared. This has a really nice mix of rides and things to see around the park. Definitely recommend if you're in the area or have an hour to travel over to it. read more

We weren't expecting much from this theme park as we're so accustomed to the parks in Orlando. We were quite skeptical but was pleasantly surprised. This theme park seems to have the charm and coziness of the classic theme parks before the mainstream ones came to be. The Safari train ride was a nice touch too. The fall and pumpkin decorations would make you feel very festive. I noticed that the food is not so expensive like you would expect in a theme park which is a plus! I would highly recommend this park to those who just want a chill, fun, and simple theme park. read more

We used to bring our granddaughter here for many years, always loved coming had a great time , saw many concerts were wonderful! Bought 4 gold passes this year. We have always loved the fact that it's a very laid back and you don't have the long lines. The front of park-and area around concert venue is beautiful and inviting, but walk past all that and the park looks unmanicured and forgotten about. It's disappointing that the whole park after that area looks run down! I have been 4 times in last 2 weeks and each time so many rides are closed can't seem to keep them all running on any given day. Splash Island had no water in it on the whole ride till you hit a few feet from bottom then you get the big splash, that ride needs to be fixed or shut it down it's a very rough ride. You open at 1100 which I think is late, but when it opens it takes awhile till the rides open, water park opens 1130 and last 2 times I've been the part of the water park that has the big water bucket and smaller slides hasn't had water in it till 1215. When you open I expect everything to be open and ready for your guests. I noticed the nice building and campsites that are under construction, I strongly believe your camping sites will be great but I also think you should have improved the inside of the park first . I will say that most of your employees are very nice, friendly and very helpful which is very nice we don't find that to be true in many places we visit. We love coming there we live in Gainesville FL it's a very easy drive. I'm hoping next year to buy passes again in the hopes there will be improvements made by then. The family had a great time but with many disappointments the 2 days we were there July 24 and 25. read more

So honestly, for the price, it's not that bad. I don't particularly care for places like this that have animals (because the animals look sad, sedated, and miserable). I will say I'm glad they have the souvenir cup (cheap refills throughout the day). Some staff were nice and prompt but not many. It looks pretty clean as well. It's interesting if you've never been but don't plan an entire trip around it. read more

I would like to start by saying waste of my money!!! My cabana was nasty and filthy. It was not worth the amount I paid, the tv didnt work just kept playing a shark vacuum commercial on repeat wouldn't let us change it!!! The private bathrooms were nasty!!!!!! Toilets were overflowing some didn't work at all! The chairs were dirty and rusty!! The lifeguards were all miserable all with attitudes no one wanted to work!! Except Madison in the Cabana village cabana refill station , total sweet heart! The food was good, plus there. Chicken tenders were yum!! Kids section was shut down!! Half the rides were closed ! Would not go back !! read more

We had a great time here!! I would definitely return! It had so many positives for us! -alot to do, rides, animal exhibits, water park all in park...all included with admission price too! -price was great! Got a Groupon for $50 per person ( family of 4) to enter park and for their meal deal, which fed all of us all day! -kids 2 and under free, and I joined their club so 4 year old got in free too -not too crowded, we went on a Sunday and the wait wasn't bad at all, maybe waited 15 minutes...then in the afternoon there was no wait for many rides! - water park was big and fun! - Shade! It was hot and I loved the park has a ton of trees around to provide shade so your not melting! All around we all enjoyed ourselves! Only negative I can think of is by the afternoon we were all dying for water, they had a great water station in the front to get cold water, but if they could add one to middle of park we would have loved that! We were all like chugging water bottles, going up buying 3 at a time and still thirsty! Lol read more

We attended based on the website stating nothing was closed. Drove up from Florida, paid full price to find that only one roller coaster was open. All of the thrilling rides were closed as well as the majority of the restaurants. We went to guest services to see about a refund. Spoke with a gentleman named Jon who not only got us a refund, but apologized and gave us two tickets for another time. He stated they are having issues finding staff right now which I understand. My 2 star review is based on the misinformation. They should advertise the closures and be honest because we would have gone somewhere else instead. I do want to thank Jon for his outstanding customer service though. Because of him, we will Make a trip back another time. read more

I have to admit, this place is nothing like what I experienced as a kid. I was able to take my family while visiting and was really let down that most of the big rides were not running. The water park seemed to have more options, and a new kiddie play area for the younger ones. What I absolutely HATE is that I had to run into the water after my mom and younger cousin (6) went down a water slide and the waves were SO STRONG that they were pulling them into the back of the wall. My mother injured her foot and THANK GOD my little cousin was wearing a life jacket. The entire time, the lifeguard had NO IDEA that this was going on and did not seem too concerned at all when we told him what had happened. The old "bugout" (not sure of the new name) ride, slams you to a halt and injured my nephew's sternum! Just be careful and keep and eye on the little ones no matter the ride you are on. Although the kids seemed to enjoy the experience, it really sucked that we were on edge trying to make sure rides were safe and that staff was actually doing their job. If you do come here, I would recommend bringing a packed lunch. Even whenever I was a kid, we would always get our hands stamped for re-entrance on the way out of the park, have lunch in the car, and return back to the park, instead of paying $25/per meal per person. Also, you can bring water into the park! Another concern of mine, any smaller bags were not properly search (at all) like the big bags were. Definitely didn't make me feel totally safe with how crazy the world is right now. Perhaps it was the nostalgia my brothers and I had as kids, but the park really didn't do the same for us this time around. I really hope to see changes made to safety here. read more

Me and my friends had a great time here but we ran into an issue. Hailey at the American Express didn't seem to wanna do her job. She kept going up to her friends and was reluctant to let us ride the ride. She told us that she had to keep switching between the American Express and the ride across from it because she had to work both of them, but they're were already two workers over there and they weren't doing anything either. read more

In September 2006, Adventure Parks Group filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. On September 25, 2007, Wild Adventures was sold because of bankruptcy requirements. Adventure Parks Group LLC, announced that Wild Adventures park in Valdosta, Ga., will be sold to the highest bidder in a private auction starting Sept. 25. The sale fulfilled requirements resulting from a Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection filing by Adventure Parks Group. On September 25, 2007, it was reported that Herschend Family Entertainment had purchased Wild Adventures for $34.4 million. I really wanted to leave a super positive review for this theme park. I've been visiting since I was a teenager, I'm nearly 30 now. Unfortunately something has happened within the last decade as far as ownership/management that has caused the park to feel like much less of an experience than it is capable of. The severe under-staffing and the basic hiring process of this park seriously needs to be looked into. Rides are often shut down because one employee is running multiple rides. The staff member must leave the ride you're in line for to go and start a different ride nearby. Unacceptable. I hate to repeat what another yelper posted, but: Many of the workers are lacking professionalism. Joking and cutting up and not prioritizing guests. I assume their training is lacking as well. You'll feel like you're inconveniencing staff by being a guest. Good luck finding a supervisor or anyone over 30 with any rank over the teenagers that run the park. Safari Burger is where we decided to grab a quick lunch today, however those staffing this area were too busy talking to other staff about Friday night shenanigans instead of prioritizing us, as guests. We were the only guests in "Safari Burger", the place was empty, yet it took us twenty five minutes to get simple chicken tenders and fries for our small children. It was overpriced and mostly breading, very little actual chicken. It was probably from the freezer to the frier. Let me preface my next statement with this; I'm a Correctional Officer Sergeant. I was off duty with my family trying to enjoy a weekend off. They hire teens as security staff in the park. Teenage security staff at this park walk around with their shoulder mics, orange polo shirts and aviator sunglasses, with their chests puffed out, completely oblivious to any real danger or security issues. If anything bad ever happened here, the lonely, old, gray Sheriff's deputy at the entrance gate would be the only hope anyone had. Unacceptable. Animal exhibits are missing animals. I can't elaborate on that, and I shouldn't have to in order for you to understand where this park is at currently. The water park area is nasty, packed to the brim and small children roam completely free and "wild", unsupervised, unmonitored. When I took my 3 year old into the restroom, I was appalled at the mess. Urine all over the floors, toilet paper strewn all about. He even remarked, "Daddy, it's a mess!". I never saw anyone picking up trash in the park. Not once. There was litter, cigarette butts, drink cups, etc laying everywhere. The rides are glorified fair rides. There is nothing special about run down, duct taped amusement park rides. There are very few rides. Even fewer are rides acceptable for small children that don't have an arbitrary height requirement. One ride staff wouldn't allow my daughter to board a ride, stating my daughter wasn't tall enough, whereas my son was allowed to ride. (My kids are nearly the same height and both were within the same yellow area on their hokey painted wooden height chart.) The rides creak, click, squeak, squeal and are covered in rust and obviously lack years of maintenance. Oh yeah, it costs $12 just to park your car in their parking area. Unacceptable. It's a "wild" adventure alright. read more

Wild Adventures Theme Park - Zoos Near Me - Valdosta, Georgia

My family has enjoyed Wild Adventures for about 12 yrs now. I recently bought the Gold Season Passes and let me tell you, they are worth it! Not only do you get to visit as often as you like and see great concerts for free, but with the Gold Pass you also get free parking ( saves you $10 each time you go), you also get 10% off of purchases in the park, and the go carts and mini golf are free. Oh, and the concerts, don't forget the concerts, they are free with the ticket of your park pass. I have seen John Michael Montgomery,Journey, Kool and the Gang, Loretta Lynn, Charlie Daniels, Huey Lewis, The Beach Boys, and Skillet twice! We have never really had to wait very long to get on rides, unless we've gone during school holidays. This is great fun for the family at a reasonable price compared to other theme parks. read more
