Drove 14 hours and spent 500$ just on lodging to visit this place for 2 days; because my daughter has been a fan of their videos for years and years! We went Saturday and Sunday both days open to close, 8 hours each day. She got to meet almost every animal celebrity she's been watching and spend the whole day with them to watch how they change behaviors through the day/night, and watch some feedings. She also got to meet Emily and Ed both days and it was truly incredible! Emily has always been her number 1 role model and this was literally a dream come true since we live so many states away. The staff were incredible, friendly, knowledgeable, funny and so patient with all the children♥️. Thank you all for this experience and I wish you all the best of luck! We got to experience 6 tours in the 2 days, learned so so much, and got to pet more animals than I could count. 10$ a day for this experience was SUCH an amazing deal! We also got to meet so many other families that traveled very far like we did and were visiting for the first time, like us. We also wondered around the store a dozen times watching all those animals as well, talking about the different habitats and shopping the gift shop items.
We planned our summer road trip around this visit and it did not disappoint! Knowledgeable and friendly staff. Emily is every bit as enthusiastic in person as she is on YouTube. Logan was a fun tour guide. Highly recommend a visit, especially if you are a little timid around reptiles.
This was absolutely the highlight of our day. My son has been watching Snake Discovery before they even had the zoo, on YouTube. He was in love with it all: tortoises, snakes (small to mouth dropping huge in size), geckos, frogs, tarantulas and more. It was unbelievably cool. After we had looked at everything, Kim (a Snake Discovery employee) gave us a guided tour where we got to learn a ton about all their different reptiles and even got to touch some of them! It was super exciting and Kim was very knowledgeable. Definitely a must see if you or your child likes reptiles!
Was so excited to come here and experience the zoo in person after watching them on YouTube! Loved getting to see the variety of animals and see rex eat shrimp. Ed and Emily were happy to take pictures with fans. The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful with questions about animals and materials. The facility is beautiful and the animals are well cared for! The way the zoo is set up is naturalistic, and the invert cave is so fun to visit!
An extremely high-quality experience! Staff are very knowledgeable and friendly, and the zoo is super impressive!
This place is an absolute “must-visit”, and I’ll definitely be going back!
Emily handled her reptile-fame very graciously with numerous super fans, all excited to spill their inspirations, and even made time to answer some of my nuanced questions about ball pythons and bioactive keeping.
Be sure to support this incredible business and go see some awesome reptiles!! (Great for kids, too!)
