"I've ordered so many different things and I can't pick my favorites because they're ALL SO GOOD! All of the bourekas are ridiculously delicious.

This place just wowed my pizza snob family. Highly recommend!"

Lion Country Safari

Price & Hours

• Facilities 4.0
• Atmosphere 5.0

Sitting 21 miles west of downtown West Palm Beach, Lion Country Safari is the first cageless drive-thru zoo in the country. Although it's a bit of a drive, it's well worth the trip to see nearly 1,000 animals walk freely around your car. With animals from six continents, 90 different species can be seen here, including lions, Asiatic water buffalo, tapirs, ostriches and giraffes. There's also a walk-through portion of the park called Adventure Park, where travelers can feed giraffes and birds, play miniature golf, enjoy paddle boats and water park rides and more.

Past travelers especially appreciated the friendly staff, well maintained grounds, and unique opportunity to see animals up close. To cut costs, pass on park food and bring packed lunches instead.

Lion Country Safari's drive-thru adventure is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays and 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on weekends and holidays. Public transportation is not available within the immediate area, so driving to (and within) the attraction is required. Regular admission costs $49 for visitors 10 and older, $37 for children ages 3 to 9 and free for children 2 and younger. All general admission tickets include access to the drive-thru and walk-thru portions of the park. Premium e xperiences , such as giraffe painting and flamingo feedings, are available for an additional fee. In addition to the attraction's various animal exhibits, guests have access to restrooms, gift shops, restaurants, picnic areas and water rides inside Adventure Park.

More Best Things To Do in West Palm Beach

#1 McCarthy's Wildlife Sanctuary

Home to more than 200 animals, including lions, tigers, panthers and lemurs, McCarthy's Wildlife Sanctuary is an ideal attraction for animal lovers. Available to visit by small-group guided tour only, the sanctuary affords visitors an up-close view of various animals, as well as interactive opportunities with some of the property's smaller species.

Overall, past visitors appreciated McCarthy's mission to rehabilitate injured or abandoned wild animals. Not only are the grounds well-maintained, but the tour guides are also informative, polite and engaging, according to reviewers. Remember, though, to make arrangements for this attraction well in advance since appointments are required. Another note: Children younger than 5 are not permitted.

• BB BabyBoomer vip West Palm Beach • 87 reviews 5.0 Dined 1 day ago Four people, 4 different entrées, all outstanding. My meal included 12 delectable shrimp and two sides for $27. Julia was a delightful server. More info Stonewood Grill & Tavern - Wellington $$ $$ Price: Moderate • American • Wellington • 4.6
• OT OpenTable Diner vip New York City • 4 reviews 5.0 Dined 3 days ago We were very happy with our experience at Elisabetta’s! The food was delicious! We started with a mozzarella sampler (from the specials) and prosciutto di parma, which were both very fresh and tasty! For our main, we shared a margherita pie with half sausage and the rigatoni bolognese. The pizza is personal-pie-size, but with the rigatoni bolognese and the mozzarella/prosciutto starters, we could barely finish our food! The sausage was VERY tasty, definitely one of the best sausage I’ve ever had. The rigatoni bolognese was EXCEPTIONAL - there was a number of pieces of braised short rib and the sauce was extra flavorful - we used our pizza crust to eat the excess sauce and practically wiped the plates clean! For drinks, we had the Italian Moscow mule and it was delicious - not overly sweet and a nice twist to a classic! For dessert, we had chocolate and vanilla gelato, and the regular and pistachio cannolis. Dessert was okay - the cannolis were too salty and the gelato was average. Our waiter was excellent - very attentive, friendly, and gave helpful menu suggestions and recommendations. Service was fast - our food came out quick and our mains were HOT which meant they brought the food out right away. Our one complaint is that it was very warm and sticky in the restaurant. Other than that, we were very happy with our experience and will definitely be returning! Highly recommend if you are looking for a great date night spot and/or girls night with tasty and filling food, and it would be a good option for families too!

They were very accommodating as we had outdoor reservations but it was so hot they sat us indoors at our request! The service was good! The food not as delicious as it has been!

How to have a roaring good time at lion country safari near west palm beach.

Lion Country Safari, America’s first drive-through wildlife preserve, offers the rare chance to get up close with wild creatures.

- - Lion Country Safari

By Lauren Tjaden and Vanessa Caceres

Just west of Palm Beach , you’ll find Lion Country Safari , America’s first drive-through wildlife preserve. Open since 1967, it offers the rare chance to get up close with wild lions. But it offers a whole lot more, too—rides, attractions, animal encounters and other adventures.

Here’s your guide for how to enjoy Lion Country Safari...

Be part of the herd

There’s something about cages and bars. Or more to the point, the lack of them.

It feels good to watch zebras -- so close you can see their muzzles tremble as they munch grass – roaming in herds, just like they would in the wild. Or to spot the King of the Jungle, a lion, all eight feet of him, taking his version of a cat nap in the sun.

The thrill level changes, too. You’ll notice this when a rhino, stout as a tank, clatters across the road right in front of you. I guarantee goosebumps.

There are over 1,000 animals to see on your adventure as well as a water park, shopping, food and animal feeding.  Lion Country Safari strives to "be a leader in animal care, conservation and education to inspire people through connections with wildlife in a fun, family-friendly environment."

The Drive-Through-Safari is divided into seven sections, which houses more than 900 animals, kept in large fenced areas with about five miles of paved roadway running through it.

You drive your own car (or rent one nearby) through it, at your own pace, while listening to a recorded narration. Some of the animals, like giraffes, can come right up to your car. Others, like lions, arephysically  separated from the vehicles. (They used to roam freely with the cars; but lost the privilege in 2005, because of visitors who ignored warnings and opened their car doors.)

Take a walk on the wild side

Amusement Park rides, miniature golf, animal feeding opportunities, and even an animal theater: The Walk-Through-Safari boasts all of them and more. You can navigate the islands of Lake Shanalee on a paddleboat, where siamangs and spider monkeys dance in the trees; pan for gems and fossils at the Orange River Mining Company; or take the Safari Plunge down a twisted waterslide. You can get lost in the Safari Maze, let your toddlers have a toot on the Rio Grande Train, or tempt a giraffe to nibble a treat from your hand. A can’t-miss attraction is the Lory Bird Aviary. Spend the $2 to buy a cup of nectar, and you’ll be a big hit with the exotic birds, who will happily roost on your wrist for a sip.

Especially special

Private tours and encounters include guided tours of the Walking Safari and the Driving Safari, as well as the strange and cool ‘Giraffe Painting Encounter.’ It’s true: one of the long-necked-wonders, using a mouth-held brush, will paint a masterpiece for you.

Making a difference

Lion Country Safari is dedicated to conservation , locally and globally. They help folks become more responsible pet owners, are involved in wildlife rehabilitation, recycling education, and more. They also offer exciting opportunities for you to be one of the good guys: you can volunteer to take part in ChimpanZoo, an international program where you can contribute to the research of the Jane Goodall Institute.

Stay and play

You’ll think you’re in Africa when you fall asleep to the sounds of wild animals at the award-winning Lion Country Safari KOA Campground . It offers tent sites, RV sites and ‘kabins.’

When you go… Lion Country Safari 2003 Lion Country Safari Road Loxahatchee, FL 33470 (561) 793-1084

Here are a few tips to keep in mind as you plan your Lion Country Safari visit:

Bring your swim suit, water shoes, and sunscreen. Visitors don’t always know about the splash water play area and could show up unprepared otherwise.

Try to plan your visit for earlier or later in the day. That’s when the animals move around the most, Taffel-Cohen said. However, another good time to visit is when it’s raining—the animals love the chance to cool down, according to the folks at Lion Country.

Schedule your visit accordingly. The park recommends about five hours for your full visit, including the safari and amusement park.

Bring some cash. A few of the walk-through amusement park experiences cost a couple of bucks. Be ready to give your kids (or kids at heart) a few dollars so they can maximize their enjoyment there, Taffel-Cohen advised.

Consider camping with lions roaring in the background . Lion Country Safari has a KOA campground on site with full RV hookups, camping cabins, and tent sites.

No car? Don’t get left behind . Lion Country Safari will refer you to rental vehicles available nearby.

Work the hashtags . You’ll probably have your phone with you for pics, maybe even a fancy camera. You can share your pics and use the hashtag #lioncountrysafari.

Leave the pets at home! However, if for some reason Fido can’t stay behind, Lion Country has a kennel onsite for a small fee. Check with the park about specific rules regarding service animals.

Savvino-storozhevsky monastery and museum.

Zvenigorod's most famous sight is the Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery, which was founded in 1398 by the monk Savva from the Troitse-Sergieva Lavra, at the invitation and with the support of Prince Yury Dmitrievich of Zvenigorod. Savva was later canonised as St Sabbas (Savva) of Storozhev. The monastery late flourished under the reign of Tsar Alexis, who chose the monastery as his family church and often went on pilgrimage there and made lots of donations to it. Most of the monastery’s buildings date from this time. The monastery is heavily fortified with thick walls and six towers, the most impressive of which is the Krasny Tower which also serves as the eastern entrance. The monastery was closed in 1918 and only reopened in 1995. In 1998 Patriarch Alexius II took part in a service to return the relics of St Sabbas to the monastery. Today the monastery has the status of a stauropegic monastery, which is second in status to a lavra. In addition to being a working monastery, it also holds the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum.

Belfry and Neighbouring Churches

Located near the main entrance is the monastery's belfry which is perhaps the calling card of the monastery due to its uniqueness. It was built in the 1650s and the St Sergius of Radonezh’s Church was opened on the middle tier in the mid-17th century, although it was originally dedicated to the Trinity. The belfry's 35-tonne Great Bladgovestny Bell fell in 1941 and was only restored and returned in 2003. Attached to the belfry is a large refectory and the Transfiguration Church, both of which were built on the orders of Tsar Alexis in the 1650s.  

To the left of the belfry is another, smaller, refectory which is attached to the Trinity Gate-Church, which was also constructed in the 1650s on the orders of Tsar Alexis who made it his own family church. The church is elaborately decorated with colourful trims and underneath the archway is a beautiful 19th century fresco.

Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is the oldest building in the monastery and among the oldest buildings in the Moscow Region. It was built between 1404 and 1405 during the lifetime of St Sabbas and using the funds of Prince Yury of Zvenigorod. The white-stone cathedral is a standard four-pillar design with a single golden dome. After the death of St Sabbas he was interred in the cathedral and a new altar dedicated to him was added.

Under the reign of Tsar Alexis the cathedral was decorated with frescoes by Stepan Ryazanets, some of which remain today. Tsar Alexis also presented the cathedral with a five-tier iconostasis, the top row of icons have been preserved.

Tsaritsa's Chambers

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is located between the Tsaritsa's Chambers of the left and the Palace of Tsar Alexis on the right. The Tsaritsa's Chambers were built in the mid-17th century for the wife of Tsar Alexey - Tsaritsa Maria Ilinichna Miloskavskaya. The design of the building is influenced by the ancient Russian architectural style. Is prettier than the Tsar's chambers opposite, being red in colour with elaborately decorated window frames and entrance.

At present the Tsaritsa's Chambers houses the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum. Among its displays is an accurate recreation of the interior of a noble lady's chambers including furniture, decorations and a decorated tiled oven, and an exhibition on the history of Zvenigorod and the monastery.

Palace of Tsar Alexis

The Palace of Tsar Alexis was built in the 1650s and is now one of the best surviving examples of non-religious architecture of that era. It was built especially for Tsar Alexis who often visited the monastery on religious pilgrimages. Its most striking feature is its pretty row of nine chimney spouts which resemble towers.
