ABOUT LION COUNTRY SAFARI Lion Country Safari opened in 1967 and was developed with the goal of bringing the African safari experience (then, and now, an expensive and time-consuming trip) to families who would otherwise not be able to experience this type of adventure.
The park prides itself on caring for large social groups of animals (including some of the largest herds of zebra, giraffe, and rhino on record in North America) in wide open, natural habitats.
The animals roam these multi-acre preserves while guests are confined to their vehicles.
The resulting experience is immersive and allows for a very natural environment for guests to see and connect with some of the world's most iconic species.
A visit to Lion Country Safari brings people closer to wildlife in this unique setting and supports conservation efforts to save species.
Lion Country Safari is accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums, the gold standard in animal care, conservation, and education, and is Palm Beach County's largest attraction.
