What Should a Group Know Before Busing to Lion Country Safari?

Lion Country Safari in Loxahatchee is open daily 10 AM to 5 PM with the last car admitted at 4 PM, the drive-through preserve is a 4-mile route through 7 habitats, and groups of 20 or more paid guests get 20 to 30 percent off when they reserve at least one week ahead.

Can a charter bus drive through the safari?

Not confirmed. The park's current Plan Your Visit, FAQ, Drive-Through Safari and Group Visits pages do not mention buses or motorcoaches, and the vehicle rules ban convertibles, motorcycles, soft-tops, open-air and low-clearance vehicles and anything in tow, with windows and sunroofs kept closed. Ask Group Sales to confirm in writing whether your coach may enter the preserve and where it parks before you book the bus. Source: lioncountrysafari.com, lioncountrysafari.com.

How much time should a group plan for the drive-through?

The park advises allowing one and a half hours or longer on busy days to drive the 4-mile preserve. Since the last vehicle is admitted at 4 PM, a group that also wants the walk-through areas should plan to arrive by late morning and tell the carrier the expected departure time so driver standby is priced in.

What Do Groups Ask Before Booking a Bus to Lion Country Safari?

The park's current official pages do not say whether buses or motorcoaches may drive the preserve. They list banned vehicle types, including convertibles, soft-tops, open-air and low-clearance vehicles and anything in tow, and require windows to stay closed. Before booking the coach, ask Lion Country Safari Group Sales at (561) 793-1084 ext. 2270 to confirm bus access and parking in writing, then share that answer with the carrier.
The park opens at 10 AM and admits the last car into the preserve at 4 PM, and it advises allowing one and a half hours or more for the 4-mile drive on busy days. From West Palm Beach the drive is about 22 miles, roughly 42 minutes in free-flowing traffic, so a 9:15 AM departure puts a group at the gate near opening with time to check in.
Non-school groups of 20 or more paid guests receive 20 percent off for 20 to 99 guests, 25 percent off for 100 to 249 guests and 30 percent off for 250 or more, according to the park's group visits page. Groups must submit a reservation request at least one week before the visit and pay with a single form of payment.
