Rigden Ranch

This place was amazing! There was a group of 4 of us and we all had the best time, in fact it was all we talked about all day after! It wasn't your typical walk through and see the animals kind of zoo. We got to meet and feed most of the animals and Shane had fun facts, stories and names for all of them! We will definitely be back.

This place is by far my favorite! The tour is private for you and your group- so much time for up close encounters with the animals! We fed the capys, camels, lemurs, etc. Shane is so knowledgeable and friendly and gives a wonderful background regarding each animal. It brought back fond memories of going there with my Mom and I was so excited to go with my daughter. 100/10 recommended!

Awesome tour of all the animals. You get led to each exhibit with a bucket of food to feed the animals while the guide tells you facts about whatever you are seeing. Got to have a capybara sit in my lap and shook hands with a lemur. All the animals were super friendly and it was a lot of fun joking with the guide. He answered all questions no matter how stupid and was very clear on how to act around and hold some of the critters. Was really there for the capybara but got so much more. 10/10 will be back for sure.

We recently visited Rigden Ranch, and I have to say, it was an unforgettable experience! I was initially skeptical because every review seemed to be 5 stars, but now I completely understand why. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this ranch is something special. It was just my husband, our two kids, and me—essentially a private tour—and we felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. The variety of animals is incredible, from the popular capybaras to lemurs, kangaroos, camels, and so much more. Every single animal we encountered looked happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. They even responded (and in the case of the pigs, even ran) to the call of their names, which shows how much positive interaction they have with people. You could tell they truly enjoy human company. The capybaras were a huge hit with my family, but my personal favorite was the skunk—an adorable ball of fluff that napped right on my shoulder! The camels were surprisingly affectionate and even showed love to the barn cats. It was all so heartwarming. The ranch is clean, well-kept, and the staff is beyond knowledgeable. Our tour guide knew everything about the animals and made the whole experience educational and fun. I genuinely have nothing negative to say. It’s well worth the money, and my only regret is not discovering this gem sooner—we could have made several trips this summer alone! If you're looking for a unique and enjoyable outing, Rigden Ranch is it. We’ll definitely be back!

Me and my boyfriend had an amazing time here! It was super informational and we had such a fun time with our guide! The animals were super cute and it was so fun getting to feed and pet all the different critters. I would definitely come back again, 10/10 recommend!!
