πŸ‘πŸ‘ We loved it here! Kristin was the bomb! She was so personable and accommodating! She spoiled us. We saw such a unique selection of animals. We got to feed them and the private animal encounters are amazing! You will not get this hands on experience at a zoo. This place is truly so special!

    What a wonderful experience! Where do I even start?! The animals are so well taken care of, the property is so clean and organized. The tour guide was phenomenal and the owner was the sweetest! Up close and personal, educational and fun tour. Way better than any zoo and our kids and the adults truly enjoyed themselves. We will definitely be coming back! Just WOW is all I have to say. Thank you for allowing us to experience this!

    This was a great experience for the family animal lover. My kids loved seeing the animals some we haven’t seen before. The information on the tour was very interesting we definitely learned some new things. The kids loved giving the animals snacks and interacting with our favorites. Definitely plan on another trip soon. I recommend some boots for those visiting during the rainy season like us too.

    Our experience at Moore Exotic Zoo in Riverview, Florida was truly outstanding! After exploring various spots since moving to Florida, it easily became our family's favorite. The zoo's atmosphere is beautiful, and you can genuinely sense the contentment of the well-cared-for animals. My daughter's dream of meeting a sloth in person finally came true, thanks to Moore Exotic Animal Ranch. A big shoutout to Kristin, the owner, who not only met but exceeded our expectations during the encounters we purchased. We genuinely appreciate Kristin for sharing her wonderful zoo with us, creating memories that we'll cherish for a lifetime. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Great experience the owner is extremely knowledgeable and personable. She has animals that we had never heard or seen before and could not be happier. The price is perfect for couples or families and you get your money's worth. Will definitely be back. Wil recommend to everyone.

    This place is truly a hidden gem. Wonderful private tour to feed and learn about so many animals species up close and personal. There are raccoons, kinkajous, genets, lemurs, porcupines, sloths, foxes, and many more. Animals are well cared for and you can tell how much the animals are loved.

    We took our granddaughters (12, 8 & 5). When we were leaving the 5 yr old described our morning perfectly "AMAZING". We saw & feed animals up close, some we have never seen before. The animals are obviously well cared for and loved.

    Visited this Sunday at 10am, it was so much fun! I’m such a huge animal lover, learned so many new things about each animal, and holding the baby fennec foxes was a dream of mine. They were so tiny and sweet and feeding the others were fun too!

    We had a great experience here. The animals are very friendly and you get to interact with most of them. Highly recommend if you want an up close experience. It is well worth the drive. Owner is very knowledgeable about the animals. The enclosures were very clean and well maintained. Several animals are feed only and other can be held or petted.

    Such a wonderful experience!!! I brought my boyfriend here to surprise him for his birthday and Moore Exotic Animal Ranch exceeded my wild expectations! Their facilities and presentation show how greatly they care for their animals. And we got to see, feed and TOUCH those animals, many of them we had never even heard of before!! Truly a once in a lifetime experience!

  • 5/5 Jessa F. 9 months ago on Google
    My boyfriend and I had an absolute blast!! You can tell the animals are well cared for and loved. We did the private tour and it was so nice interacting with the animals one on one! It was truly magical and we will definitely be back for the serotonin boost!!!

    This place was amazing. With little info online and only a few reviews, I didn't know what to expect. The ranch is basically a private residence on a very large lot with the animal in large cages. All the cages were very clean and you can tell the animals are very well cared for. Some of the calmer animals you can get very close to and feed while others you can only look at from a distance. Getting to interact and feed some of the animals was the highlight of the tour. If you're into animals, this is a better experience than anything you will get at a zoo around here. I'm sure I'll be back time and time again!

    We visited Moore Exotic Animals and enjoyed getting to feed and interact with a number of animals that you would not normally get to. It is not a large place but is growing and was worth the cost especially given this is a private appointment tour.

  • 5/5 saralynne a. 1 year ago on Google
    Was such a fun experience and the owner is very knowledgeable and nice. The animals are so cute. You can get pretty close to most of them way better than a zoo and i definitely will be back. I highly recommend if you’re looking for something fun to do and if you like animals! And you can’t forget crush the tortoise he was the best and super friendly

    Such a wonderful experience. Highly recommend setting up a tour and scheduling an encounter! The animals here are so healthy and happy. The owner took her time to answer questions and educate our family on the animals background and history. Our 10 year old enjoyed the visit so much he’s already asking to go back!

    What an awesome experience. Since this is a private, family-owned business you get such a unique and intimate experience. I surprised my wife with a tour and she loved it, especially how interactive the whole experience was.
