Eudora Wildlife Safari Park was built with the mindset of providing a Drive-Thru Safari experience that would address the education, preservation, conservation, and the protection of the environment for the entire community. The safari allows the public to view and feed exotic animals from around the world from the comfort of their own vehicles.

There is also an enclosed petting zoo area nearby, along with a Parakeet Adventure where over 200 parakeets make their dwelling.  Eudora Wildlife Safari Park, with over 300 exotic animals, plans to acquire more animals as part of the safari expansion. There is a picnic area for the guest.

“Eudora Farms opened several months earlier than expected, and we started to see a few cars show up for the drive-thru.  And then, we had around a couple hundred visitors arrive in one day.  We said to ourselves, “Well, this is amazing!”. We didn’t realize that the next day, word-of-mouth about the  safari had grown like wildfire, and we had about 800 cars in one day.

Our team is currently in the process of developing a walk-thru trail with several different attractions. Walking along this leisurely route, guests will see ring-tailed lemurs, African servals, binturongs, a tortoise, and kangaroos. Guests will be able to sit and relax while enjoying the fresh air at park benches available throughout the trail. Currently, the walk-thru trail does not include any animal interactions, however, they are considering it in the upcoming months.

Eudora Farms had been around for years, it was the drive-thru safari park that became an overnight success. We couldn’t believe how quickly the safari had grown in a matter of a couple of months.”

Nisbet has three children who help manage Eudora Farms.  His two sons, Travis, Tristan, and his daughter, Shelby, all work in  pivotal key roles with the daily operations, maintenance, and development of the safari park.  In addition, several staff members and volunteers all contribute to making the experience at Eudora Farms a fun and enjoyable experience for guests of every age that visit the park.

As the child of a teacher, value was heavily placed on education and conservation.

WHERE ARE THE GIRAFFE'S?? If I was still in South Carolina I would still be looking for those giraffe's that were advertised everywhere in Eudora as being able to feed. I told my family all about them and boy did I hear about it afterwards and still! Either way... Eudora might have been the highlight of our Charleston trip. We went through the safari drive thru twice. The first time we spent about 10 minutes at the entrance as we were the first car of the day and the animals were just waiting there, blocking the entrance. My husband was fearful and he was driving as I was in the backseat with our 2 and 11 year old. We were armed with multiple buckets of food. We had so much fun! The animals blocking the car made my husband frustrated which we thought was hysterical! The kids were scared the animals would bite so windows were going up and down and up and down and... The car was filled with laughter and screams of enjoyment. We had one billy goat that stalked our car and was a bully. We had to shake him and the journey began. The walk through area- fell a little short for our family and those giraffes... they were indoors. Never emerged. Never got to see them. The carnival type area... apparently only happening on weekends. It was like a ghost town. I would highly suggest taking your kids here and let them fill your car with shrieks and laughter. It will be worth it (but when using your own car- beware they might ram your car and do damage. We had a rental with full coverage.) Safari score: 5!

Who knew... there is an drive-thru safari in South Carolina, just an hour drive away from Augusta. The Eurora Wildlife Safari Park is a great place to get up close and personal with wildlife from around the world, you can either drive thru the park and feed the animals from your vehicle or hit the nature trail either way it fun and exciting for the whole family. The park is open year around except for Christmas Day and Thanksgiving Day. Feed will cost you $5, veterans gets a free bucket of feed for free. The Eurora Wildlife Safari Park is the perfect outing the entire family can enjoy!

We thoroughly enjoyed our Christmas outing to Eudora Wildlife Safari with our grown grandchildren! The whole adventure was perfect- from driving through the area where you can feed the animals to watching an entertaining pig race! Family friendly, picnic area, loads of fun! We will be back!

An absolutely perfect experience for a toddler. It's a bit of a drive but worth it. They have food and beverages there also. Plan 3 hours AT LEAST! It took us 2 hours to do the drive through safari and the village and we could've easily spent another 30 minutes at the village; didn't have time to do the walking safari. Next time!!

Eudora Safari is phenomenal!! The animals are super active and there are so many!! We only bought two buckets of food, I definitely suggest getting the 5 bucket special! The animals know why you're there and they have no fear of approaching if your windows are down! We found that when our windows were up they just gave us the side eye and waited for another car! We were completely wowed and awe struck at the size and number of animals. The road through is super bumpy, very true safari feel! The walk thru safari and the activity area/petting zoo will round out your experience and keep the kiddos busy the entire day!

I came to this place during Covid and had a blast!! Decided to come back here again the other day with some friends. All in all great experience, the only reason I am giving it a 3 is because the staff at the front entrance, there was an older lady, she was so rude to us because our cards were not working due to the lack of service , so I offered to pay and she snatched my card out my hand when I told her I would pay for the experience. Other than that, definitely a good place to take your kids and family

10/10 An amazing experience, more then I thought we were going to get. We chose to do the public wagon tour because we didn't want to drive our car through it! The women that rode with us was very friendly and informative on ALL the animals ! We learned so much, which is a big reason why I think this was better then taking our car ! The Safari tour was well over an hour long and you got to see and feed so many animals! They came right up to you and some were aggressive fair warning hahah but that comes with the territory. Our three year old loved as well as our 10 month old, so it's a perfect family outing! Not only do you get the safari tour but with your ticket you get the walk through Safari as well with 5-6 exhibits in a beautiful area makes you feel like you are somewhere else! You also get a petting zoo that also has a few other activities to do! I can't say enough nice things! Everyone was super friendly besides the women working the ticket window but don't let her ruin your time!

Really enjoyed my first visit to Eudora Wildlife Safari. There were a large variety of animals to see and feed as you drive through. Also a nice walk through area with fun exhibits. Minor complaints: there could have been a few more signs showing you where to go, and the grass was really long in the food and gift store area making mosquitos pretty bad. The gift store was also closed despite the park being pretty busy. Recommend bug spray. Despite these small things, my family and I had a great time. Highly recommended.

WHAT AN EXPERIENCE. My hubby and I have had this place on our things to do list for a while. SO GLAD we finally made it here. If you love animals and getting close with them this is the place to do it. We went on a gorgeous day. I personally would recommend going in a car that has windows you can open and close easily, not a convertible lol. It's a drive thru safari experience. It took us an hour and that was just the drive part. There is also a part at the end where you can get out and see, feed and pet more animals. This is a family friendly place however I think it depends on your kids. This isn't an experience where you can close the window because you could hurt the animal and/or your vehicle. You have to be confident in your decision to feed an animal. They have rules in place for a reason and I'm not sure you want to find out the hard way why they have specific rules in place. I'm sure there's a reason for feeding out of the bucket only and not to feed an animal 3 times your size a carrot with your hand.. The prices are affordable for the experience. I would highly highly recommend. Bring cash and card as they accept both for certain areas of the place.

Really cool! I was expecting to see a few scattered animals here and there but it was filled with life!! I absolutely loved that the animals have so much land to roam and they are more behaved than my dog! Yeah my car saturated with animal saliva and chewed pellets and carrots but it was worth it! The price for admission is for all day and for the petting zoo as well. We will def return more often!
