Wild Florida Sloth Encounter

[Bazinga 39]

Hi all, we have done a couple of boat trips before and this time want to try Wild Florida, there is 6 of us but I would like to also book the sloth encounter just for my 2 girls, I’m assuming the rest of us will still be able to watch them with the sloths, anyone know? Thanks

You will be able to watch them from outside the "cage" as I stood and watched an encounter last year for a few minutes and thinking about booking for my DD this year. I think you only get to stroke them and not actually hold them with the "standard" encounter but with the "VIP" encounter you get to hold them but quite a price jump !

Thank you very much for reply, I think they will have to be happy just stroking them though😂

We did it a few years ago and loved it. We got to stroke and feed baby George, but not hold him. Tbh, after seeing the way he gripped the keeper with his claws, I don't think I'd want to!

Ah George looks very cute, he can keep his claws to himself though😀

We saw George too - keeper held him, but he was very inquisitive...

she showed us the weals on her shoulders and waist where he grips - no thanks!

Ah we did this with George too, two years ago. Was lovely.

I fully recommend the VIP experience as the wife got to cuddle, stroke, feed and rub Arry's belly for over 10 minutes + 30 minutes inside the enclosure with the keeper and 3 other people as they limit it to 4 ppl at a time.
The cheaper experience with George is a great treat it you just want to get up close to these amazing animals.
wild florida is just a fantastic place to visit and was one of our highlights on our honeymoon last year
