This place is incredible! Lots to see, clean facilities , pleasant staff and the performers at the shows (I saw 3 shows, 1 performer did 2 of them) were great and would tailor their humor. Recommended!
The alligator show is great! The trainer keeps the show fun & you learn a lot about the different kinds of gators . He's not bad on the eyes either. Lots of other critters to see also.
Another excellent wildlife tour in Rapid City. Be sure to catch some of the shows (crocodile , snake , and bird shows) held throughout the day.
The selection of snakes from around the world, including the most venomous snake in the world; the fierce snake/taipan
A must stop for anyone visiting Mt Rushmore. The amount of reptiles here were amazing to see. Most of which you will not see anywhere else in the country .
Reptiles , Birds, plants, fossils, skeletons - they got it all. Great shows and was fun for kids and adults.
Good price, kids will be entertained, and the favilities are very nice. We'll be back.
Kind of small for being the "world's largest reptile collection", & the food is overpriced, but the staff is friendly . They allow dogs on leashes so you don't have to leave them in the car!
The variety of reptile species being displayed here is pretty incredible.
The giant tortoises make it worth every penny. So cool!
Go visit the tortoise house and meet Methuselah - South Dakota's oldest living resident. Methuselah was born in 1881 and weighs 600 pounds!
Stay for the shows. They’re the real reason to visit.
Interesting facts and reptiles , including Maniac.
The alligator show was awesome! And the guy who put on the alligator show was pretty hot ;)
Alligator show is a must see! Handler is witty and gives a great show (and not bad to look at either).
One if the largest collections of Reptiles , with many rare species! Definitely worth $15. Avoid Henda though, she's finicky.
No shows during COVID but you can still feed the alligators .
Check out the alligator show . Lots of fun and educational (the handler is pretty hot too)
Before you go, find d out when they are going to feed the pythons.
Best reptile sex scene of 2011!!!

I love, love, love this place! We went about 8:30-9am, and all the animals were out & about. I recommend going about that time during the summer. - Jenny Schepper
We thought it was going to be cheesy, we did everything (cave tour, zip line, and the 7D game) and it was awesome for adults and kids! ! It should be a MUST STOP! - DrStephanie Miller
Amazing! I loved petting the animals and feeding them! My 2 year old also had a blast! - Tanya
