We went on the safari trucks to see animals up close. It was warming up and they weren't stirring much. We got to pet cows and buffalo. Do not feed the zebras was repeated multiple times. The kid who wanted no parts of holding a joey or riding a pony ... rode the camel! The highlight of the 3 yr old's trip was feeding the giraffes 3 leaves of romaine lettuce. Very family friendly. read more

Keystone Safari is a nice miniature zoo to come out and explore. If you're interested in riding a camel, you can do that! I got to go on 2 camel rides they're $10 per ride and it is super fun to do. It's like riding a horse but much taller. If you come down here I highly recommend getting a camel ride in! They'll let you take pictures and videos while riding read more

Had no idea this place even existed until my work hosted a family afternoon here. Highly recommend! You can feed the animals, great place to walk around. The gift shop has a nice selection and isn't insanely overpriced like most zoos. There is also a playground for kids. We really enjoyed our afternoon at keystone safari! read more

Keystone Safari seemed to be well maintained and cleaned. The buckets of food lasted all the way until the second before last animal which is a nice amount for the price. My only complaint to which I'm still somewhat fuming about is the absolute rudeness from one of the employees. The girl running the face paint stand was incredibly rude and off-putting. She made several unpleasant comments such as "don't touch my stuff or my drink" while doing the face paint makeup despite no one even being near her stuff except the child in the chair. She sighed heavily and said "this is my adult only chair I don't allow children to sit here" so I asked if she wanted my nephew to move and she replied "no just don't touch my stuff" once again.. no one was touching her stuff. She repeatedly was reprimanding children around her for simply standing near her stand leaning on the fence. She was more focused on wanting reading her book than what she was doing and had her nose in her book not paying attention to us before we could even say thank you. She didn't have a pleasant attitude what so ever and made my young nephew very uncomfortable. read more

Very nice for young children Great size not too much walking for the kids You can feed the giraffes my great nephew really enjoyed that read more

I really do like it here. I can't say how good it is for the animals because I honestly don't know but it seems like it's pretty good. I don't know if they're rescued or not. We are big fans of feeding the giraffes. I don't know why there isn't a restaurant in the gift shop or anything they do have some food truck type deals throughout the zoo but I think it's mostly hotdogs. read more

I have driven past Keystone Safari a countless amount of times but have never been. A couple weeks ago, I was finally about to go with two young kiddos. The line to get in was quite long, but moved at a decent rate due to the three employees working at the check-in desk. To my surprise, we spent around 2.5 hours here. We walked around half of the zoo then took a break to eat lunch at the picnic tables near the black swans and food truck. This zoo has a good amount of animals on their 144 acre property. The zoo walk through tickets are $18 for adults 18-61, $15 for children 3-12 and seniors 62+, and infants 2 and under are free. The zoo offers $5 feeding wristband which allows 3 feeds per band to feed Barnyard, Reindeer, and Giraffe. You can also pay $2 per feed at each station if you do not purchase the wristband at check-in. In addition, you can purchase a $2 stick to feed the butterflies in the butterfly house. We all have a season pass now which comes with a handful of perks. An adult season pass costs $58.00, while a child and senior season pass costs $48.00. For Military/First Responder, the price is $48.00 with a valid ID. The kids and I had a great time at Keystone Safari and can not wait to go back! read more

We are members here and absolutely love taking the kids. It's always a great time, especially for the holiday lights. My only suggestion is to not eat at the food cart inside the park, the corn dog was lukewarm and the fries weren't cooked. It was a little pricey for what you get and we left hungry and stopped on the way home to get something more filling. read more

This super fun attraction is an amazing place to explore. Makes a great day trip and it was entertaining for the entire family. Told friends about my experience here. Pay for the safari truck ride, it's worth it. Keystone Safari is very well maintained and I could tell they take good care of the animals. I also recommend buying some feed for the safari ride. If you go later in the day, one bucket is enough as the animals won't be as hungry as earlier in the day. Enjoyed walking through the area where smaller animals are. Make sure you see the giraffes. Opportunity to feed them as well. Gift shop is very nice too. Prices are reasonable. Will be back here! read more

This place is so fun! Lots of animals, friendly staff and very clean! My son and his best friend loved it, we will definitely be back!!

Did the private tour and it was worth every single cent plus some. The staff were very knowledgeable and its obvious that they and the facility truly care about the animals they have. read more

Absolutely fun! Easy walking with wide paved sidewalks. Especially for wheelchairs or strollers. There is a double fence to keep animals back, but at the same time they are close enough to get a good view. I especially liked the feeding gutters on some of the fenced areas. Very clean. They could use a few more picnic tables around the gift shop tho. Loved feeding the giraffes. We didn't care for the drive through. You are at the mercy of the cars ahead of you. Some like to stop and disobey the warnings- feeding herds from inside the car. It took too long to move along and most of the animals were in the woods or too far away. Good idea but maybe better with a guide driving a large open safari truck. We will go again, great job Keystone Safari! read more

Honestly very cool experience!! Took my 4 year old and to the drive through portion and we had a blast. Lots of animals came up to the car and they were very gentle. They licked the food out of our hands versus biting (although the birds were more into pecking lol.) the staff was very finely, bathrooms on sight, food buckets are cheap but I recommend two! It's a very nice pace- I never felt rushed and got to take my time feeding and petting the animals that approached me. $14/ per person read more

What an exceptional experience! The staff are very friendly and helpful. The drive is well marked. The animals are so friendly, healthy and fun! They have a wonderful selection of animals that you can get close to and feed. They are so gentle! Thank you so much for the beautiful setting and fun opportunity! read more

Always a great place to visit. We like that it is much smaller than other zoos so you don't feel pressured to hike forever in order to see all the attractions. The facilities are extremely well maintained. Feeding the giraffes is always a feature. TIP: try to time your feed when the male giraffe "Levi" (?) is nearby - he's a bit taller and gets a little closer to you (over the railing). My 6 year old son enjoys the beginner ropes course/zipline. read more

I am always team Living Treasures but they moved the beloved giraffes so we had to make the trip to Keystone to check it out. It is a newer location so the place is very updated and looks nice. The parking lot is also a lot bigger. There's not much shade here so I do recommend coming earlier in the day or bringing proper sun protection. Don't forget the water! They have a good variety of animals to see. You can also feed a lot of them which is always the kids favorite part. Especially feeding the giraffes. If you're going to pay extra to feed anything I'd suggest the giraffes, it's always a cool experience. They recently have a new addition to the giraffe family as well! It looks like they have a zip line course which is awesome. Everyone using it looked like they were having a good time. We didn't have time to look into that further but definitely a future venture. The kids also loved the bounce house area. From that area we could see a spot where they had pony rides. All around it was a good time. It's definitely more nostalgic going to living treasures but this new location is very nice. I also saw a sign on the way out that mentioned getting a discount at living treasures if you took your ticket from today with you. I'm not sure if that was a special offer or year round but thought that it was nice. read more

After much waiting Keystone Safari opened briefly during the Holidays before closing for the winter. They will be open once again in the Spring of 2019. While all of the animals had not yet arrived to their homes when we visited, there were plenty on display to give a great preview of the fun to come. On display were camels, llamas, hyenas, lions, bears, deer and lots of fowl. My favorite part was the giraffe - and you get to feed them!! In fact carrots and lettuce were available at various locations to get an up-close look at the critters. Keystone Safari also offered camel rides and a holiday reindeer display with lots of places that were perfect for family photos. This promises to be a great place to take the kids after shopping at the outlets. It's affordable to visit and also for a season pass . I purchased both of my animal loving daughters a pass and plan on spending lots of time with that giraffe. It's lots of fun - I can't wait until Spring! read more

This was a really nice trip away on a Sunday afternoon. The grounds are really clean, well maintained and spacious. It wasn't busy while we were there at all, which was really great. Admission and price to feed the animals was reasonable. Feeding the giraffe was our favorite part but there's lots of areas here that really excited our kids. We've done the drive thru experience as a Covid safe activity last summer but ventured back to do the walk through. There's a nice, reasonably priced gift shop on the way out and a couple food options inside. We really enjoyed visiting and will be back again sometime this summer. Staff was friendly and helpful too. read more

Keystone Safari - Giraffe feeding - Zoos Near Me - Grove City, Pennsylvania

Nice place to tour, especially for children. Animals are treated well with a wide variety. We've visited several times with the grandkids, and they never get tired of going. Highly recommend a visit. read more

I've only done the walk-through portion and it's very nice and clean. The best part is feeding the giraffes. It's so amazing to see them up close. At certain times they have pony rides (for an extra fee) and my kid loves those. I don't love that the lion pen is so small, but honestly it's probably a similar size to the Pittsburgh Zoo - you're just closer to them so it seems smaller. If this is your kind of thing, you should look into a membership. It's good for Keystone Safari and both Living Treasures (in Moraine and Donegal). read more

Great with the kids. We loved the tortoises and the giraffes and it was great feeding the camels and goats they were like little angels but over all it was great I would recommend for you or the family read more

We did the walking zoo part today, but we will be back to the drive through Safari soon though! This was our first time here and we were pretty impressed and most importantly our kid loved it. The zoo isn't huge, but it offers a lot and is a nice change of pace from the Pittsburgh zoo. The park is very walkable, spacious and it has great views of all the animals they have to display. We liked that they allow you to feed many of the animals. The animal enclosures are nice, easy to access and large enough for many people to view. Honestly, there are parts of this zoo that I liked better than some of the popular big city zoos. There is a nice variety of animals. There are many kid friendly activities such as goats to pet, a misting tunnel, a butterfly house, bounce houses, zip lines, and dinosaur sculptures. They look like the have one or two areas were they may be looking to expand this part of the zoo. We definitely plan on coming back, so we decided to put the cost our admissions towards a couple season passes. read more

Went at 10 as the park opened. Ample parking available. Would strongly suggest the feeding wristband for young children as they can get up close with many of the animals at feeding stations. The Barbary Lion is quite a sight, and we got to see the lion cub enjoying some fun with his parents. A number of animals can be fed through feed machines so be sure to have quarters to purchase small amounts. Got through the park in about an hour and forty minutes. Did not do the zip line. Gift shop is reasonably priced. Plenty of space for expansion. I would like to see Gorillas, Zebras and Gazelles added in the future, but for being their first year out they are doing well. read more

While checking out of our hotel we picked up an advertisement for keystone Safari. We arrived a little before opening and waited in the parking lot for the doors to open. $12 for admission and then another$5 if you want to have the ability to feed animals at three different locations. At the entrance we went to the right and were able to get some lettuce to feed the monkeys and giraffes. The next feeding location was in the barnyard where we got carrots for the eggs chickens goats and alpacas. The final section is the reindeer barn. That was with the$5. The place is very clean and everything is brand new. The baby lion at four months old was the highlight of the day! I can't wait to watch the facility grow and add more animals and attractions. read more

Very impressed. Wonderful zoo for a nice trip. Perfect for children! Drive thru was a little under whelming due to the weather being hot and most animals taking shelter in the shade of the trees. Cannot wait to take my 1 year old grand daughter. read more

The best part is the drive through safari! Very nice layout and no lack of animals coming up to the car. If shook the feed bucket some of the them com trotting over. Overall, they were super sweet and gentle with interacting with the drivers / feeders. The walk through is pretty nice but if you don't take your time you can be done pretty quick. Stroll through, stop n smell the roses. Didn't do the zip line course but impressed with the layout. Gift shop is pretty nice and quite a variety there. read more

Such a fun place to visit especially with kids! Enjoy feeding many animals such as reindeer, pigs, zebra, fish, ostriches, giraffes and more! Relatively new in the last few years, very clean and fun experience. They are continuing to expand too! I highly recommend season passes! You will use it! read more

Was there today with my family. Amazing service getting tickets. But went to the zebra area and had a man yelling at us to stop feeding them when our windows were up. He was on a bus full of people and embarrassed all of us. Completely ruined the experience for us... read more

Very nice venue! Great opportunities for interaction with the animals. Nice wide paved pathways. Take snacks & drinks for your kiddos or even take lunches. If pavilions aren't reserved you can sit at those tables. If I had to choose between the Pittsburgh Zoo and Keystone Safari...I would choose Keystone Safari. Do both the walk through and drive through AND buy the feed cups in the walk through. read more

I had an afternoon free and was looking for a great place to visit. I found the Keystone Safari and love animals. What a wonderful, magical place to visit alone or with the family. I decided to take both the walking and driving tours. The walking tour can take as long or short as you want - there are so many animals to see and feed ;) I loved the reindeer! The driving tour was awesome! the animals are very happy to come up to the car and beg for food! ;) The grounds were well taken care of, and the animals also appear very healthy and happy. There were so many different types of animals it was great fun and a wonderfully relaxing afternoon. read more

This place is a little expensive for a family of 4 once you purchase the walk thru safari tickets, drive thru safari tickets, feed wrist bands and buckets of feed for the drive thru animals. I believe it came to around $130 or so. BUT we were on vacation so we went ahead with it. Our family had tons of fun petting and feeding the animals. I loved the up close feel with them. I even got a bath from a bison in the drive thru safari. Yuck but hilarious to my family. The animals look well care for and the place looks clean. Definitely recommend if you have the money. read more

For this zoo, we paid $15 per adult for admission and $5 each for feed for the barn animals, reindeer, and giraffes (which we skipped feeding because the line was so long). The animals' shelters were constructed well. Besides the reindeer and giraffes, other animals included goats, lions, camels, bears, deer, chickens, antelopes, butterflies, etc. The gift shop has very nice souvenirs, many of which are made in Africa and are a reasonable price. Although COVID-19 is still spreading, almost no other customers wore face masks or performed hand hygiene, so remember that when you are sharing space and hand-feeding the same animals. This zoo is good, and I recommend it if you are near Grove City. read more

I came out today, memorial day, with my daughter and husband for their drive through experience. We arrived at about 10:30. When we were waiting in line to get in, we noticed cars were already leaving the park. This was an instant bummer because we had drove an hour and a half to get to the park and was hoping for a decently long ride through the park. The price was 25$ per carload. The price itself wasnt aweful, but I was expecting more. Honestly I felt it should have been a little less, perhaps 20$, because it only took about 15 minutes to drive through. The park itself was beautiful. Some of the animals had really nice set ups with "playground" for them in their enclosure. Others though, didnt seem to have it as nice, such as the lion. Although it did look like they were still working on the park. My favorite part of the park was probably the animated bugs. While I am not a fan of bugs, I will say they were neat and i had never seen anything like it. The bugs were oversized, life like version of many insects that moved and made noises. My five year daughter found it to be great. All in all, it's a neat find if your in the area. read more

An awesome animal park! We've been going to Living Treasures in Moraine yearly for the past 8+ years and love it. We were so excited to see a similar park opening up a little closer to home :) We now have season passes and have visited all 3 animal parks as of yesterday (Donegal was the last on our list as it's just over 2 hours away. We love the interaction at all 3 parks. Seeing the animals up close and even getting to touch and feed most of them! We love feeding the giraffes and watching all of the animals- the new babies, the reindeer losing their antlers, and teaching our son about the things your don't always think about when visiting zoos. Everything is always very clean and the animals look happy and healthy. There is always staff around to answer questions. I love that there is something new every time we visit! read more
