Gatorland
A long-running alligator theme park that opened in 1949, with thousands of alligators, a gator wrestling show and a zip line that flies over the alligator pond.
Gatorland calls itself the Alligator Capital of the World. It keeps thousands of alligators and crocodiles, including rare albino alligators. Classic shows include gator wrestling and a feeding show where alligators leap for food. You can also watch wading birds nesting naturally from the boardwalks. A zip line that soars over the alligator pond is available as an add-on. Admission is much cheaper than at the major theme parks. It is located on Route 441 between Orlando and Kissimmee and takes about half a day to see.
