Tallahassee Museum

Wow. Went not knowing what to expect. Encountered school field trip. We were not in any hurry so just joined in with the crowd. The Phipps Gallery was featuring artwork by Ernest M. Lee whom we are familiar with. We took the walk to see the animals. I liked the cypress trees the best. Lots of historical information. We visited a one-room schoolhouse. A railway inspector car and the gift shop. There is a cafe on the premises and lots of tables outside also. Zip lines for adults and kids. Wear comfortable shoes and clothes. Beautiful place.

The Tallahassee Museum has a lot to offer for a low admission price. Nature trails, animal exhibits, history exhibits, and canopy walks and zip lines. Strolling through the tree tops has an additional charge, but the area is so beautiful it is worth it. The animals are extremely well cared for and have a variety of enrichment items to interact with. On top of it all, they participate in the SPP (species protection plan) for the critically endangered red wolf! The grounds are very well kept and so are the exhibits themselves. There is most certainly something for the whole family to enjoy here.

All local animals found in Florida/Georgia. A lot of them are rescue animals found hurt or needing healthcare. Nice sized animal exhibit, very cool wooden playground and for the thrill seekers there is zip lines and obstacle courses! Little ones had a blast!
