I really enjoyed this...a very small reptile zoo fitted into a building that they make work....It is a super close encounter with the reptiles & many are available for you to touch, whilst they are still in their exhibits or they are providing talks & you are allowed to touch them. It was very homely & they had many areas including a bbq area, party area and outside area. I would happily go again. $16 to get in which I thought very reasonable.

This was a fantastic place for a kids' birthday party. They have a minimum of 10 kids and a max of 20; we had 10 kids, all around 7 or 8 years old. During the two hour party time, the museum host keeps the kids engaged. They started 'digging for fossils', using brushes in small sand boxes, then made casts of fossils they found/chose. They also got to see some fossils and then got their own guided tour of the museum for around 45 minutes, full of fascinating facts about dinosaurs, culminating in holding an actual part of a T-Rex tooth (while wearing gloves). Back in the party room, we fed the kids. As the catering option was quite expensive, we'd chosen to cater it ourselves (they let you do this) - helpfully they were able to store our cold things (including an ice cream cake) in the freezer! The host stayed with us and still chatted to the kids - he had a very good way with them, helping everyone feel involved and dealing very well with those kids who really knew about dinosaurs and wanted to tell us all about it, or tell unrelated stories all of their own! The museum itself is the largest permanent collection of dinosaur artifacts in Australia. Another bonus of the party is that after the party is over, all the children present have a valid pass for the museum for the day - so they can stay around, if they wish. The icing on the cake though, pardon the pun, was that at the end every child got a little party bag from the museum, with small dinosaur-themed items, a postcard and some lollies (candy), which they took home along with the casts of fossils they had made. The birthday boy also got a couple of presents from the museum - little dinosaur models, one of which came with paints. All in all, this was great value for money and was something a little different from your standard play centre-styled birthday party. Highly recommended - our son is already talking about wanting to do it again next year!
