Tiger Creek Animal Sanctuary

We had a nice tour of the place. We were able to get so close to the animals, it was so neat! Hearing a lion calling its pride was an unreal experience. Our guide was knowledgeable and it's good to see they care for these animals who otherwise would have been in much worse places. Thank you for your work!

Our guide Autumn was amazing and patient with the kids. She was sweet and interacted with the tigers so we could see the tigers and explained the safety measures they use. She knew all of the animals personally and told us their preferences and dislikes so it felt like we got to know each animal there. The animals are well cared for and happy. It was a great experience.

We attended a private tour at Tiger Creek and we were unfortunately not satisfied. Our tour guide was very nice and informative on the tour. The entire tour only lasted about 10 minutes. While it may have been in the morning we were still upset with our tour. I am not sure why it lasted this long but we were told it should last about an hour and half but we ended up with ten minutes. But the park was clean and the tigers appeared to be well taken care of so it may be just our luck but we will not be coming back unless we hear of improvement.

Tiger Creek is another must-see in Tyler! The sanctuary is incredibly well-kept with lots of big cats to see! Our guided tour led by Kayla K was the cherry on top. Kayla was a trooper walking us through during the rain while maintaining a smile the entire time. This place is an animal lovers dream!

It is a bit pricey. But, I justified the expense as supporting the animals in the sanctuary. We went on Monday, and I was disappointed that there are no guided tours (only Wed - Sat this time of year). The "self guided tour" took us about 1.5 hours. But, I left feeling satisfied. At times, we were a mere 4 feet (and 2 fences!) away from these majestic animals.
