点评:The Alabama Safari Park in Hope Hull is truly a treasure! We had an absolute blast. There’s so much hands-on animal interaction, and the entire park is designed with families in mind.
The wagon ride is totally worth the extra fee. You’ll see far more animals than you would from your car — and you won’t have to worry about vacuuming your vehicle for the next month!
Pro tip: Grab a couple of empty buckets from the pile at the entrance to the walking park. When you’re given your feed ration for the wagon ride, divide it between three buckets. The camels and zebras will absolutely try to steal a bucket or two — and they usually succeed — but if you’ve separated the feed, you’ll still have some left for the rest of the trip.
Be sure to purchase wagon tickets online ahead of time because they sell out quickly.
The park staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The walking section is smaller than the drive-through, but there’s still plenty to do. My personal favorite was feeding the budgies — you just have to be patient. Once one bird lands on you, the rest quickly follow!
Everything was clean, green, and beautifully maintained. We had so much fun and can’t wait to go back.
翻译:位于霍普赫尔的阿拉巴马野生动物园真是个宝藏!我们玩得非常开心。这里有很多可以近距离接触动物的机会,而且整个园区的设计都充分考虑了家庭游客的需求。
乘坐马车游览绝对物超所值。你会看到比开车看到的多得多的动物——而且接下来一个月你都不用担心车里的灰尘了!
小贴士:在步行区入口处的桶堆里拿几个空桶。当你拿到马车游览的饲料时,把它分成三份装进三个桶里。骆驼和斑马肯定会想方设法偷走一两个桶——而且它们通常都能得逞——但如果你事先分装好饲料,就能保证剩下的部分可以留到旅程结束。
一定要提前在网上购买马车票,因为票很快就会售罄。
园区的工作人员非常友好热情,乐于助人。步行区比驾车游览区小一些,但仍然有很多活动可以参加。我最喜欢的是喂虎皮鹦鹉——你只需要耐心点。只要有一只鸟落在你身上,其他的就会很快跟过来!
一切都很干净,绿树成荫,维护得也非常好。我们玩得非常开心,迫不及待地想再去一次。
