Great experience to see crocodiles with kids together

We had great time on the boat to watch crocodile hunting food and had fun finding crocodile. The crocodile feeding time was so interesting and the staff had great talk about the size, weight, life span about crocodiles and some stories about crocodiles attacking people, had really good education for kids!

Amazing seamless experience. Our tickets were waiting for us on arrival and we never had an issue booking via Experience Oz.

We had such a great day at Hartley's. The lagoon boat cruise was by far our family's favourite. The staff were funny and really knowledgeable. Our 2 kids were enthralled the entire time. The animals seem to be very well cared for. The snake talk was also awesome. My kids were over the moon that they not only got to see crocs but also alligators. A nice suprise to top off the day was the free face painting that was being offered during school holidays. We had a great day and can't wait to return.

Awesome experience with crocodiles, snakes and koalas.

Had a great time here. Saw a lot of crocodiles and saw crocs feeding as well. It was exciting to hold the baby crocodile and see them up so close. There was a crocodile farm tour, crocodile attack show and croc feeding show and all of them was just amazing.
