This place has a sketchy entrance but once you're in the park it is awesome fun! The animals are so friendly and visit each car for food. Really great experience. Buy the big buckets of food. Wish we could have rented their Jurassic park car to drive through or entered the reptile house but those were not available due to Covid. Still a fun adventure worth the drive off the beaten path

This place is so cute. We loved getting to feed the animals. We went in the middle of the day and the animals still came up to eat Bc the drive is mainly shaded. You can buy a bucket or cup of feed. We got two buckets and went back to refill. You can also go back around as many times as you want if you have feed left. Really enjoyed it and highly recommend

Well what I can say. It's basically a drive up zoo. The entrance fee is ten dollars per person. You can also purchase food to feed them. They walk right up to your car and eat out of your hand. This was very interesting and something totally different. I enjoyed myself. And being from I'm from Huntsville Alabama I'll definitely go back when I visit again.

We visited here with our family in March, and had such a great time. We rented one of their SUVs for $15, which keeps your own car from getting scratched. The animal encounters were great and everyone loved feeding them. The animals all looked healthy and well-fed. The reptile house afterward was also so great-tons of unique animals. A unique, exciting day.

This was a great experience for the entire family. We decided to visit after just trying to find something to do around Madison. I thought this would be a good idea, turns out it was great and everyone enjoyed themselves! It was our first time visiting, the staff was very nice and they explained everything upon entering the park. Riding through this park with the opportunity to see and feed the animals up close was very fun, and at the end we had the chance to walk around to see tortoises,kangaroos, alligators and reptiles. My children also had the chance to hold a snake, but passed on it! Overall

The people who run this place are amazing! Some of the friendliest people Ive ever met! The line to get in was long when we went, and the hill is steep, so make sure you have good breaks, and a full tank of gas.
I highly reccomend getting a bucket of food for each participant. There were so many cool animals. They dont seem scared of the cars at all! An ostrich stuck it's head in my window and i didnt even have food!
I definitely plan to com back to this place. If not for the animals, but to support the amazing staff!

Because California is so liberal these safari parks are not heard of and if there is such a thing they are protested and shamed. Anywho I was SO STOKED to come here and was very happy that I did. THIS AN AWESOME EXPERIENCE! I got to see animals so up close and personal like never before, some animals were also new to me. If you're wondering how it works it goes like this, you pull in pay your dues at the drive thru gate and have the option to buy a cup or bucket of food for the animals (buy the bucket, trust me). Once you get the "ok" to drive in the safari you will be bombarded

The wait on a Saturday afternoon is atrocious so pick a different day. Lol. My sons loved this place and there is a lot of interaction with the animals, just not a ton of them. The staff is super nice. Some of the animals will stick their heads all the way in your car. It's awesome. Be aware, they only take cash.

I was pleasantly surprised by the Safari Park. You drive through the park that is filled with animals. The animals are "pros" at knowing the car path and lining the route to get fed. So the animals are wild, but know to expect the humans to extend their arms with feed in solo cups. Often the animals block the road and you have to wait for them to move. They had a large number of animals and many different species. Bison, deer, llamas, giraffe, pigs, zebras, buffalo, ostriches, and populate the park.
After driving through the park feeding the animals there is a turtle area where you walk

Up close and personal with Bison, bulls, zebra, llamas, deer . This was very cool experience! You drive through and feed the animals for $9 per person. $5 for a big bucket of food to give them . They also have a reptile house and a turtle walk. There's no AC im the reptile house but it was cool to walk through . Next time I'll skip it and just do the drive through. Tiubcsn go through as many times as you like . We all piled into one car but it was hard to raked pics and hard to feed the animals with seven people in a Kia Soul so we split up into two cars on the second round and itvweng

We travelled to Huntsville for a quick getaway. I have seen Harmony Park a few times on signs while out recruiting. We were really excited about trying this place out because it was the first time my wife or I have ever done something like this before.
The safari was very clean, and very interactive. It costs 9 dollars a head in the car and you have a choice between a dollars worth of food (red solo cup) or a 5 dollar bucket. We went with the 5 dollar bucket and Im glad we did.
As we entered the park, we saw about 10 random animals ranging from ostrich, deer, horse and zebra. A couple dozen
