ADVICE FOR VISITORS

The crocodile park is an ideal family destination – The park offers kids’ parties, a fun ride on the Crocmobile, and informative, interactive tours. For the adults, the park is the perfect function venue or getaway with adventurous friends.

You could turn it into a weekend of wining, dining, and picnics on the lawn, with a daring twist, should you opt to stay over.

Tours are conducted every 45 minutes, and in summer we make a point of including a croc feeding component on the 11:15 and 14:15 tours.
