Awesome snake education.
Jun 2022 • Family
Excellent, top class experience, the children were hanging on our guide's lips for a full 1hr + of interesting snake and other reptile education. What a pleasure it was to enjoy someone with true passion for his field, sharing his knowledge with us. Thank you!

Well looked after

I was here 8yrs ago and the enclosures have improved. My 13yo loves snakes now, whereas when we were here last, she was too petrified to touch one so she wanted to go back to this park. She enjoyed it but was rather disappointed that she didnt hold more snakes.
Connor was very informative. He really knows his stuff and you could see he was passionate about them!

Super educational but also fun

The people are extremely knowledgeable and good with kids as well as adults. Drape a snake around your neck or touch one for the very first time, it’s perfectly safe and an amazing experience.

Best snake park in South Africa
Jan 2022 • Family
Well run park. Probably the best in South Africa. Snakes are kept in a clean, well attended environment and the hour tour was very informative.

I will recommend this to anyone who visits Plettennerg bay.

The price is great for the experience you get and the shop has nice memorabilia to buy.

It is the best snake park i have been to.

Thanks Michael and staff.

Friendly reception with an informative and patient tour guide. Only reason it’s not a 5 is due to the lack of souvenirs and beverages at the kiosk.

Fantastic time at the snake sanctuary! Very informative and engagingly educational. We went for a beautiful walk on the property, the kids played on the swings, ran around on the grass and we had a picnic. Great spot for families!

Enjoyed it more than ithought
May 2021 • Couples
Like a lot of reviewers I’m not a fan of snakes, I have driven passed lawnwood many times. after the excellent tour with Ken my attitude to snakes has changed. Very informative and interesting, large selection of snakes and a chance to handle a few of them. Highly recommend.
