Quick Details
Enjoy a Camel Safari Tour in Lakeland FL!
Animal viewing on camels is simply sublime. Rediscover the experiences our human ancestors had with these magnificent animals, viewing magnificent herds of safari animals from your bestial perch. Become a part of the herd, joining our exotic animals in their natural state. Camel safari tours are about an hour and a half in length and are led by two experienced tour guides/camel handlers. We have both dromedary and Bactrian camels.
Our camel safari tours are treated with kindness and respect — and they love their jobs. They line up at the gate each morning eager to go to work! After giving their human safaris, each camel returns to the herd in their large grassy pasture with trees and open sky for rest, play, and recharging. Our camels are athletes, and they live long and healthy lives.
Camels have been domesticated for over 6,000 years and have a complex and mutually beneficial relationship with humankind. In our three decades of working with camels, we have developed the only full-on camel backed animal-viewing safari that we know of outside of Africa.

You can enter the ring-tailed lemur habitat with a guide and hand feed grapes to a troop of playful prosimians. Ring-tailed lemurs are very polite. They will line up to gently touch your hand with theirs, carefully removing a grape from your fingers. They tilt their heads back, so as not to lose one drop of grape juice!
