Educational snake tour

Snake Park - educational and very interesting

This conservation space for snakes is wonderful for adults and children. This is a very necessary sanctuary space for an area that has a large population of snakes under constant threat from the spreading humans. The people who work here are enthusiastic, well-trained and very...More

Amazing snake collection

A large collection of snakes both in open pits and in glass enclosures. Our guide, Wilmington, was excellent and interacted very well with our kids who asked tons of questions. You are even allowed to hold some snakes, which our kids and me loved!

Very good

We recently returned to the snake for our 3rd time and we enjoyed it just as much as all the times before. We had a very entertaining and knowledgeable guide and they have a great collection of snakes some of which you can hold.
