Snakes Downunder Reptile Park

Reviewed By ChristineJ219 - Bargara, Australia

We came here on a rainy day and close to closing time so we were the only people there. We were very lucky to be given a personal tour by Jamie who gave us a lot of information about the inhabitants and also fed the Meerkats while we were there. It was a fascinating experience to get so close to our most venomous snakes with a thick plate of glass between us. Where else would you get that sort of opportunity? There are normally regular shows scheduled with feeding the crocs, pictures with the koalas etc. but due to COVID they're not currently on. It didn't matter to us, we still had a very enjoyable visit and would definitely visit again.

Stopped in to obtain recommendations on what to see and do in the local area. The lady was knowledgeable and had lots of valuable information to share. There are also walls of brochures about attractions, accommodation and places to see in the local area. I would definitely recommend this as a first stop when you arrive into town, there is so much helpful information to make your visit to the area worthwhile. It will want to make you come back, time and time again, to discover more...
