Recently visited the everglades area on our honeymoon, and since we're animal lovers we stopped in to Everglades Outpost to see some adorable animals in the sanctuary. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly, and we enjoyed meeting all the animals, hearing their stories, petting, and feeding them. We were surprised to be able to pet/feed so many! It was a memorable experience for sure and we highly recommend the tour to everyone visiting the area. In my opinion, it's a great way to support the rescued animals and the caretakers of the sanctuary. Thank you for the good work you're doing, Everglades Outpost!

I've been here twice in 6 months with my Bf (2nd time Mom too). I forgot the girl w/ brown hairs name that helps us each time. She is super nice & welcoming. We love this little place. They don't get any funding from state of Florida please tell friends & family about this place. You can donate too. The best attraction is the monkey, panther, & wolves. You can feed the monkey, camel, zebra & alligator. Maybe others too. Some people think it's cruel to cage animals, but out in the wild they are being hunted & becoming instinct/endangered. At least they are fed & take care of & seem to be healthy at this place. The animals look healthy & well fed. If your thinking about going please go & check it out! Thanks for a great experience.

LOVED my experience here, took my daughter a while back and it was a huge hit with her and my hubby. The wolf cave and all the animals , you even get to feed some like the baby pigs out of baby bottles and fruits to sloths. The staff is amazing, they even have shows where they bring out baby gator and tarantulas that can be held or pet. Highly recommend going to support and check them out.

We did the feeding experience here and it was the best ever! This is a non profit rescue for wild animals. They take awesome care of their animals. They will be having a fair/fundraising event June 24, 2023. Go check it out!

I had an amazing time at the Everglades Outpost….it’s definitely a place to check out when you are in the area! The staff & volunteers are very knowledgeable, and take lots of time to talk to you. The animals are very well taken care of, and their habitats are very clean. Definitely check out the Behind the Scenes Tour, you will see everything up close and learn so much more, as each of these ambassador animals has a story of its own to tell. We also did the Alligator Swim with Chris Gillette, it was INCREDIBLE!
