We had it for a play date. My kids and their friends and families loved it!
He was very professional, arrived early and was very knowledgeable. He kept the kids engaged all the time. We highly recommend him
Keith Gisser the executive director came and spoke with the club I am in at school. He was informative, kind, and very knowledgeable on these amazing animals! I have nothing but good things to say. I have been to the foundation and I have seen for myself the amazing things that they do to help the animals and find them homes. This will be my reptile go to place because they are the BEST! The club loved the presentation and we would love to have him come back in the future!
My grandson’s Boy Scout troop visited Herps Alive today. They learned a lot of great information regarding how to care for the animals, how long they live, and where they came from. My grandson was a fan of the turtles, and Keith took the time to answer all his questions. He was very kind and patient. The kids had a great time and really loved the time they spent not only seeing but touching and holding the lizards and snakes! Thank you for hosting our group!!!
We went for a friend's daughter's birthday party and OMG this was the best thing ever. They run an amazing organization, rescuing reptiles and educating the public, and besides having an amazing selection of turtles, tortoises, lizards, snakes, etc., the owner is a wealth of knowledge and manages the "show and tell" part of the birthday tour very well. I think we're going back for our adult birthdays next year, it was that great, but if you have a kid that loves animals this is fantastic. Once we get settled in a house, we're definitely coming back here to adopt from them rather than a pet store too. Great place.
He was great for my 5 year olds birthday party. Kept them engaged and educated them at the same time which is no easy task at that age. It worked out wonderful and parents loved it as well.
Everyone raved about this show! It’s was entertaining for both the adults and kids. It was so great to see the smiles on the kids faces. Keith was so good with explaining everything and keeping the crowd engaged. He worked very well with the kids. He is very knowledgeable about the reptiles and we learned so much! We were very very impressed. The birthday girl absolutely loved it.
