You'll Go Wild For This One-On-One Giraffe Encounter In Florida

When you live in Florida, you learn something new every day. I knew there were plenty of reasons to love the Sunshine State, but I had no idea there were so many incredible animal sanctuaries popping up in Florida. A little while ago, we told you about an elephant sanctuary we in Williston. It turns out there’s another incredible place where you can get up close with animals that you don’t expect to find in Florida: The Giraffe Ranch in Dade City.

You don't have to leave Florida to go on an African safari. Just head over to the Giraffe Ranch in Dade City.

The passionate owners of this real working ranch will be your guides for the ultimate eco-adventure.

Whether you choose to sit in the comfort of their covered caravans or take a trek on camelback, you'll never forget your visit to this unique sanctuary.

Chances are you know someone who is obsessed with the beautiful, long-necked, awkwardly adorable giraffe. A trip to this ranch, located 45 mintues north of Tampa, is the ultimate gift for the giraffe-lover in your life.

Giraraffes aren't the only animals you can get a one-on-one experience with at the Giraffe Ranch. Have you ever wished you could get closer to the ring-tailed lemurs at the zoo? Here, you can actually have them hold your fingers with their tiny hands while you feed them treats.

Or how about the rhinoceros? You know, the one you usually only get to see from about a mile away at the zoo? Here, you can actually get up close with this incredible animal, as well as lots of other animals from around the world.

The Giraffe Ranch offers two tours a day, by reservation only. The size of the tours is strictly limited, so it never feels like you're in a zoo. Tours last between one and one and a half hours.

Giraffe Ranch is located at 38650 Mickler Rd, Dade City, FL 33523. Call (813) 482-3400 for reservations. Visit girafferanch.com for more information about the farm and available experiences.
