  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

  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!

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

  Fantastic and interactive experience!! The keepers are so enthusiastic and passionate about their work, and gave such an informative presentation. Well worth a visit!!

  We had such a good time at the Serpentarium! We felt so welcome at this family run business and the exhibits were really interesting. The kids had a ball holding Cuddles the black headed python and feeding the tortoises. Good value for money.

  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.

  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.

  The experience was intimate and throughly enjoyable. We got up close and friendly with a python and the tortoise family whilst they had their lunch.
Totally recommend the experience to everyone who visits St Helens.
The staff and owners were knowledgeable and friendly.

  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.

  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

  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.

  Fantastic experience, highly educational, incredible staff, clean, incredible

  A wonderful hands on experience for all.

This has to be the best kept conservation zoo we've visited in Tasmania. Exceptionally clean and well kept reptile displays, with knowledgeable handlers and volunteers.

Such important work to care and rehabilitate reptiles illegally gained and mistreated.

  Today was the best!! Every one who worked there was so friendly and welcoming, the kids who volunteer telling us the fun facts they know was cute as. The entire place is spotless and every enclosure was immaculate, the reptiles are very well cared for and loved. Holding the snakes and tortoises was a unforgettable experience for my whole family. We will be back. 100%recommend to every one.

  Matthew is so knowledgeable about all his reptiles and snakes and Jen and all the keepers are so helpful. The animals are so well kept and loved and respected this is hands down the only place to experience these animals. To be up close and personal with a green anaconda is incredible and the pythons are so comfortable being held. We are from Hobart but always call in for a visit to our favourite snakes Scales, Mickey and Cuddles

  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

  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,

  Anaconda is the highlight of this place along with baby kangaroos

  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.

  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!

  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.

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

  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.

  Great place to visit. Very welcoming and friendly owners. Reptile enclosures well thought out and lots to look at. We spent about an hour here without kids.

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

  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.

  An absolute must see attraction for anyone interested in reptiles. You can tell by the beautifully well kept and decorated enclosures that the owners are totally invested in the care and welfare of these wonderful creatures. The reptiles are treated more like treasured pets, all with names and different personalities, and they even get to have outside time as well. Matthew is incredibly knowledgeable and spent a great deal of time with my daughter and I, and introduced us to Osiris the carpet python, who snuggled up to my daughter for about half an hour! It was an amazing experience that she will never forget. Could not recommend more highly.

  I had the best experience today. The guide had an amazing knowledge of all the animals and you can see he really cares about them. 100% recommend you come and visit

  Very astonishing and well thought out display. Definitely great inspiration. Owner was very kind to give us a behind the scene tour and let us hold some friendly snakes!

  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.

  Totally unexpected fun! We noticed the sign to this place on our way in St Helens. I loved loved loved the turtles, my daughter loved the close encounter with the snakes, and we had such a wonderful personalised service, Jennifer just gave us all her attention, and their boys are just little warriors. This place is a must see!!!

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

  Great Serpentarium! Definitely worth a visit!! Great for the children! The staff were lovely, patient and professional. We were able to handle a python and this was included in the admission fee. Thanks for making it a memorable experience for us!

  Nice and quiet environment, friendly owner and staffs! They treated the animals as though they were part of their family. We had a great time at Serpentarium and even got a chance to have had a close encounter with the carpet python and the joey. You can find a giant anaconda in its enclosure and we were lucky enough to see it move! Worth spending time and support this awesome business if you travel to St Helens. Kids would love to explore this place!

  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!

  An excellent experience! Highly recommended.
Amazing indoor reptile park with a range of snakes and lizards. The staff and animals were great. A wonderful way to safely interact with snakes and learn about reptiles.

  Very well set up and really great staff. All the reptiles were really looked after and attention to detail in the displays was amazing. Very wheelchair accessible as well. Loved the 'junior wildlife warrior_ Sam' He was so cute. WELL WORTH A VISIT.

  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

  10/10 Would highly reccommend. great hands on experience with the snakes. Guides were informative and passionate (:

  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.

  The kids loved this place and the owners wer great

  Great little reptile park just outside of St Helens. Snake handling show at 12pm is the highlight for kids as well as feeding the kangaroos.

  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!

  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.

  Great little place. The guy running the show was great. Very knowledgeable. Made you feel comfortable to hold a snake. Food and drinks. Toilet. Few animals around. Would recommend.

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

  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!

  Wow what a place, as soon as we walked in the door we knew we were in for a good day as we were greeted by the owners white German Sheppard who accompanied us around for majority of our day there. We planned to go for maybe an hour or so and ended up being there for about 4. The entry cost to the serpentarium covers all of the activities inside, including feeding the kangaroos out the back. We were able to watch closely as he fed his two Macaw's which are just so majestic. Then he got out the three tortoises for some time in the sun and a feed, and then got out one of his snakes, which was a beautiful diamond python which everyone there was able to hold unassisted and he even took photos and videos for us on our phones. They also had another young carpet python out which I was able to hold for around 20-30 minutes straight which was very enjoyable experience. Then if you want to watch he also does some snake feeding if there is a hungry serpent. What a cool place!
