Gatorland - how much time?

[El Tel]

We are staying at WDW and on our last day are thinking of visiting Gatorland en-route to the airport (Sanford not MCO). Our flight is around 4.30 pm so we have to check in around 1.30pm. Have we got enough time in the morning to visit Gatorland and do it justice?
Thanks

WE went there in May, I thought that half a day was enough.

yep half a day is good, unless of course you lock your keys in the car and it's a sunday on the first night of your honey moon and you have to sit in the parking lot for 3 hours waiting to get the keys out!!! they were not very accomidating to us !!!

We were just there are did the same thing (just DH & me, not kids). On our last day we got there about 9:00am and had to leave by 12:30pm to get ready to get to the airport. Although we saw just about everything (we saw all shows but one and road the train), I would have liked a bit more time...maybe 3/4 of a day. We definitely enjoyed it though.

agreed, .5 to .75 of a day. A good time was had by all.

Makes for a memorable honeymoon though. Hope things got rapidly better

Depends on how much you want to stare at alligators. I suggest you get the hot dogs and feed them. Of course do not be like most newbies and give them the whole thing. break it into pieces. That will take up like 10 minutes!

Thanks to everyone for their advice.

If I can get there ideally for a .75 day before the last day I will (and use the last day in DTD) otherwise it looks like .5 day will generally be ok
