Gatorland Orlando Entry Tickets

Yes. Gatorland is one of the most family-friendly attractions in Central Florida. Live shows are accessible to all ages, the petting zoo and aviary are gentle wildlife introductions, and boardwalk trails are stroller-friendly on paved sections. Children under 3 enter free. Children under 16 must be accompanied by a guest aged 16 or older. The Screamin' Gator Zip Line has minimum age and height requirements. The Gator Jumparoo is exciting but noisy and may startle very young children.

Gatorland is at 14501 South Orange Blossom Trail, Orlando, FL 32837, on the US Highway 441 corridor between Orlando and Kissimmee, approximately 20 minutes from Downtown Orlando and Walt Disney World by car. Parking is free for all visitors. Public transit to Gatorland is limited and a car or rideshare is the most practical option.

Yes. Alligator feeding experiences are available at Gatorland and are one of the most popular activities at the park. The standard admission ticket includes access to gator feeding stations on the main walkway. The Greater Gator Package upgrade, available at the time of ticket purchase, includes gator chow for a supervised feeding experience, unlimited rides on the Gatorland Express Train, and an Alligator Encounter session for up-close interaction. Self-feeding at designated areas is supervised and conducted with specific food items provided by the park only.

Gatorland runs three live shows daily. The Gator Jumparoo features alligators launching four to five feet out of the water to snatch food from elevated platforms. Up-Close Encounters is an educational show with live animals from around the world including Florida's most dangerous native snakes. Legends of the Swamp combines alligator biology education with daredevil handling demonstrations. Show times vary daily and are posted at the park entrance.

General admission includes full-day access to all 110 acres, all three daily live shows (Gator Jumparoo, Up-Close Encounters, and Legends of the Swamp), the Alligator Breeding Marsh boardwalk, free-flight aviary, petting zoo, nature trails, and all standard animal exhibits. Parking is free. The Screamin' Gator Zip Line, Stompin' Gator Off-Road Adventure, and behind-the-scenes premium experiences are not included and require separate tickets.

Leucistic alligators are extremely rare individuals with white skin and pale blue eyes caused by a genetic condition that reduces pigmentation, distinguishing them from albino alligators which have pink eyes. Gatorland is one of the very few places in Florida where leucistic alligators can be seen and houses several of these animals in a dedicated habitat. They are among the most photographed subjects at the park and represent a genuinely unique wildlife encounter unavailable at any other Orlando area attraction.

The Screamin' Gator Zip Line is a separately ticketed adventure featuring five zip line runs from towers over seven stories tall. Riders travel 1,200 feet over the alligator breeding marsh, crocodile enclosures, and natural wetland habitat. The experience is distinctive because of the wildlife visible directly below during each run. Minimum age, height, and weight requirements apply. It is not included with general admission.

Pearl's Smokehouse is the main dining venue serving classic Florida barbecue including smoked meats, sides, and beverages. Additional snack and beverage stations are available throughout the park. Outside food, beverages, and coolers are not permitted inside Gatorland for the safety of the animals, as food scents attract wildlife.
