Price notesThe venue's own Tickets & Tours page does NOT publish a numeric admission price in its text — it states: 'Current pricing for every package and add on is shown when you book online,' with a slight discount for buying online in advance. What the page does confirm: the single core ticket is General Admission + Airboat, which includes the 20–25 minute airboat ride (with signature 360° spins), both live alligator shows (feeding and handling), and access to every exhibit and walking trail (2,000+ alligators); farm-only access without the airboat is sold on site only; children 3 and under are free. Numeric prices circulating on third-party/aggregator pages were NOT used.
Age notesVenue's own site: General Admission + Airboat is 'all ages welcome' and children 3 and under are free. Add-on Alligator Encounter, Capybara Encounter, and VIP Experience are ages 6+ only — those add-ons do not restrict the core farm/airboat/shows visit.
BookingBuying a ticket online is explicitly NOT a reservation — the venue schedules your airboat ride and show times at check-in based on availability, and tickets are also sold at the gate. Reservations ARE recommended for the Alligator Encounter, Capybara Encounter, private airboat tours, and the VIP Experience.
