To be honest I wasn't expecting all that much but was pleasantly surprised! Was a great experience, lots of information given by the staff and the reptiles seem happy.
Great experience would definitely recommend.

  This place is a gem! Thanks for a fantastic experience and interactions with Osiris and the tortoises. We looked up the Crystal Cave after a great chat about geology. We'll definitely be back for another visit!

  Very good, you get to hand feed kangaroos and pet them. We got to hold snakes and pet turtles. Beautiful animals and kind staff. Definitely recommend.

  Definitely the best experience I have ever had. The staff are so nice and informative. Would recommend visiting even if you never thought you wouldn't like reptiles. We will definitely be returning customers. Thank you to all the staff for your time.

  Anaconda is the highlight of this place along with baby kangaroos

  Fantastic place. Matthew and Jennifer are excellent hosts. Admission includes keeper’s talk and interactive session holding a snake with photos (on your phone). Excellent for families with young kids regardless of whether they love reptiles as the material is very accessible and staff super friendly. And they have an anaconda!

  The serpentarium in st Helen’s is one of the best I have been too. The owners are extremely dedicated to their beautiful animals and put all their heart and soul into everything they do. You can see just by visiting how well they are looked after and how dedicated each person who works there not only the owners in what they do. The interaction with the public and the shared knowledge not only to adults but our youth is so invaluable but a must. The up and personal encounters are very awesome too. Where else would I get to touch, sit and see one of the worlds biggest snakes. Mickey you will always be my favourite oh and of course matt and Jen. Do yourself a favour everyone and visit, volunteer even donate to this awesome place. I will be back

  Fabulous place to visit, for adults and kids. Staff very friendly and lots of fun.
Snakes are amazing, beautiful enclosures.
My son on a walking stick during visit and staff super helpful.
Had to drag the teens home.

  Had a great day today great park to visit we really enjoy it customer service was second to none and the animals are so loved would highly recommend this place

  Just Go!
Impressed with the genuine love for the animals and willingness to share this with visitors ..esp kids ..

  Absolutely amazing snake and reptile centre, Matt and Jen have a huge passion for their animals. Informative,fascinating and hands on, brilliant for the kids and adults alike.

  Wow! Wow!
Well I can’t speak highly enough of this family run business. They are so passionate about their wild life and so informative.
The Rio cafe is a must for a light lunch or just a coffee.
Thankyou Jennifer Matthew & family for a wonderful experience

  Very well organised small but comprehensive reptile park.. staff very welcoming and knowledgeable. Each display was very well thought out and displays were clean and spacious.

  Absolutely wonderful. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and very knowledgeable. Put this place on your list it’s well worth the visit.

  We had such a great time, its only a small place but it was enjoyable, the grandchildren really enjoyed holding a snake and feeding the wallabies and we were luckily enough to be able to feed the tortoises.

  had an awesome day here with the kids! My partner and I both conquered our fears of snakes today. The staff were amazing and so accommodating, especially when it came to the kids. Will definitely be coming back 😊

  Great place to visit. Very welcoming and knowledgeable staff. We were able to hand feed the kangaroos, bottle feed the baby wallabies and pademelon as well as meeting some of the snakes, tortoises and lizards. The food in the cafe was good and reasonably priced.

  We could not recommend this place more. Jen and her family went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and share all of their amazing knowledge with us. 10/10 would love to visit again.

  Amazing! We luckily were the only ones at the Serpentarium so we had the keeper to ourselves letting us hold tortoises and touch the snakes. This wouldn’t happen normally but it shows they live their visitors. The cafe had good food for a wildlife park and very friendly staff all around and a lovely bird named rio who talks to you when your near him. I definitely recommend this place to you.

  Incredible park with friendly and knowledgeable staff members! We were lucky enough to experience 1 on 1 interactions with a few members of their park! We got to feed the kangaroos, handle and pet Dolly the Stimsons Python and had a little play with Tortellini the 7yr tortoise. A great time was had by all! Thanks for having us!

  First visit was to the Serpentarium Wildlife Park, whose focus is on snakes but with other reptiles plus a few marsupials and even a pair of blue and gold Macaw thrown in. There are some Australian snakes but none who are venomous and an odd collection of exotic snakes, including a boa constrictor and an anaconda! We were given an excellent talk from one of the staff. Full of information and useful anecdotes. We were given ample opportunity to hold/caress/express love for the snake on display. We abstained. The small Bennet's Wallaby pair were cute and the Macaw were loud and colourful.

All of the snakes and lizards and even the Chinese turtles, were in glass cages appropriate for their size, contained in a building. I didn't really have a problem with the containment that I usually do as these animals have all been bred in captivity but I thought it was a pity there was an under representation of Australian animals. However, given the high proportion of Australian snakes which are highly venomous, it makes sense that they concentrate on those that are not.

It was an impressive facility and value for money,

  Absolutely incredible, the reptiles on display are well presented in their encolusures. The staff are wonderful and ensure everyone enjoys the full experience of snake handling and turtle feeding. There are also a few tame furry and feathered friends to add to the experience. Nice little Cafe for coffee and snacks here aswell. Serpentarium Wildlife Park is a must visit.

  An excellent experience for children and adults alike. We were able to handle tortoises and huge reptiles which was amazing. The presenter was absolutely wonderful with little children. A very welcoming and casual venue with a wide range of reptiles to see. Highly recommend.

  What an incredible experience. We were fortunate to visit when it was quiet and the snake experience we had exceeded all expectations. The team were excellent and provided an unbelievable experience for my four year old and me, mum on the other hand wasn’t so keen on being close to the snakes. Thanks to the team!

  Best secret in St Helens. Amazing exhibit of pythons, and an incredible experience interacting with the animals. Great for couples, family or friends! Great to meet Russel the diamond python, and the team was amazing.

  I cannot recommend highly enough that anybody that visits St Helens should visit this establishment the owners have gone above and beyond what would be expected by anyone from this type of attraction and really give the visitors something to remember forever.
Thank you very much for giving my family and I your time and experience to let us share in your passion you have for these creatures. We now have memories we will take with us for the rest of our lives

  Wondful experience. What they lack in exhibits, they make up for in close hands on interactions. The team made sure everyone had some time with the snakes, were very informitive, helpful, friendly, and eager to please. Very long drive but would return again.

  Wonderful experience, the staff were friendly and helpful. We all got to hold and pat the snake. Would highly recommend. Thanks guys

  This place was really fantastic. The enclosures were really intricately decorated and you can tell the animals are well cared for. They allowed for lots of hands on interaction with the animals and we were provided with lots of interesting information. Well worth a visit and we look forward to visiting again next time we are in town.

  Fantastic time had with very knowledgeable staff and family. Well worth a visit. Clean and nice displays. Good fun for kids feeding wallabies and turtles

  Thoroughly enjoyed my experience at the serpentarium with the owner Matt. Got there just in time for the roo feeding and presentation, both very accessible for everyone and a fun experience. We learned a lot about snakes and were able to hold two pythons and interact with the Indian Star Tortoises while they wandered about the place. The anaconda is a sight to see as well!
Highly recommend, especially for anyone nervous about holding a snake, Matt will help you to feel comfortable and safe.

  Such a great morning out. Kids and adults alike thoroughly enjoyed the animals and atmosphere. Super friendly hosts, even down to the dogs that greet you at the front door. Very hands on, and just enough information to keep us interested but not bored. Good value for money. Highly recommended.

  I had THE best experiences here. Went back twice whilst camping around St Helens. The snake enclosures are beautifully done. Matthew explains snakes well, is relaxed and helpful whilst people are learning to touch and hold them if they want to. There is also a lively family atmosphere at the serpentarium so people can simply enjoy in whatever way they choose

  This has to be hands down the best animal exhibit we have been to! As a family of 6 we definitely were questioning if we should go or not because of the price. But it is worth every dollar!!! Will definitely be recommending this to friends and family. Staff were so friendly, helpful and made sure everyone got to have a go. Thank you so much!

  A pleasant surprise, very informative and interactive. Great little cafe, yummy food

  Such a great set up. We took our son and friends for his 8th birthday and it was the perfect morning out. They got to hold tortoises, snakes and loved the interaction with the blue macaw. The owners are lovely and so caring about how the reptiles are treated. A great morning out for the family.

  What a great little wildlife experience. Tucked away out the back of St Helens, this is well worth a visit. Get an up close and personal experience with snakes and other critters. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and I loved being greeted at the entrance by the very friendly white Alsatian doggy

  Great place! Super friendly!!!

  fantastic place to visit ,very friendly and welcoming, great for the whole family, easy access,thanks

  What a fantastic experience. The staff there are amazing and very passionate about the animals in their care. The enclosures are simply magnificent. I do not like snakes but I was impressed. It’s an amazing place - not to be missed.

  Amazing little place. The owner and staff were super friendly and even allowed us to hold a few of the reptiles which made my partners day. I didn't try any of the coffee but they have a little cafe on site. A great place to visit if you want to see some restricted species that you won't see anywhere else in Tasmania. They have pythons, goannas, tortoises and an anaconda!

  Looking for places to go on our trip, I stumbled upon the Serpentarium on my google search. This was by far the most enjoyable part of the trip.

This was my 1st time ever holding a snake and Matthew was amazing to listen to as he showed my 4yr old grandson how to hold Cuddles.

The tour of the Park from Matthew and assisted by Sammy was excellent. My grandson loved his time on his own special tour from Matthew's little guide Sammy.

The setting is outstanding, the snakes, turtles and Kangaroos are well cared for.

Excellent outdoor area to sit and have something to eat whilst watching the Turtles or the Kangaroos.

The admission fee is great value and the food and drinks great prices as well.

If you're up anywhere near St Helens, the Serpentarium is a must visit attraction.

  We had a great time at the serpentarium!
We were able to hold a python and learn more about all the reptiles there. The enclosures are very well done, with beautiful environments for the reptiles to enjoy.

Our young kids had a great time!

Would highly recommend for a family activity while visiting St Helen’s!

  The staff are amazing, the serpentarium is great for all ages and very interactive highly recommend

  Lots of snakes and reptiles, very informative and interactive, make sure you are there for the 12pm show.

  Husband and wife team great, very informative.
We enjoyed the interaction with the python called cuddles.
Also lovely to see and hear about the endangered tortoise

  Well worth a visit! Friendly, knowledgeable staff, amazing displays, lots to see, very interesting and family friendly!

  I really loved the experience at this place. May be little but the knowledge and love they have for their animals. Got to get up close and personal to the snakes and turtles.

  Fantastic experience! The owners were friendly and knowledgeable. The snakes, lizards, croc and tortoise were easy to see and enclosures clean and well lit. Lots to see everywhere we looked. Well priced. Staff went out of their way to make our experience an enjoyable one. Make sure you visit when next in St Helens, we'll be coming back.
