Great place! Super friendly!!!

  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.

  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,

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

  This place is superbly put together with very animal friendly enclosures+ an absolutely first class educational tour. And I don't even like snakes! Top facility

  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.

  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!

  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.

  Amazing loved my time here (denise and leo

  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!

  This place is fantastic. Fantastic value for money. A must for reptile lovers. Brilliant staff. All round excellence.

  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.

  Really good don't know about handling snakes not my think

  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!!!

  Fantastic! Not to be missed! The many displays, are not only very professional but also very creative. And the hands-on experience, lead by the very knowledgeable owner, will delight adults and children of all ages. It definitely exceeded my expectations.
The food at the café is also very good and reasonably priced. A group of us spent the whole afternoon there and were all very impressed.

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

  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.

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

  The Serpentarium Wildlife Park - St Helens.

If you are a reptile lover you will love this place! snakes, turtles, lizards and the giant green ANACONDA!
The heated indoor reptile exhibit and museum displays exotic captive breeds, unique indigenous artifacts with gem and crystal displays.
The enclosures are fully decorated with their own theme, you can experience an interactive and interpretive keeper presentation at 12:00 noon daily where you can hold a python.
Very educational for everyone, the owners are absolutely wonderful and so welcoming and great with the kids.
Make sure to put it on your bucket list when travelling the NE of the state.
open everyday from 11am-to 4pm, 7 days a week.

  Over priced for what was shown. The snakes were very interesting and they had a wide variety. Staff were also interesting. But also couldn’t decipher who was staff and who wasn’t as there was a lot of small children wearing uniforms. Would go again if I had a small child with me.

  Fantastic exhibit. Very informative and interactive. Very friendly. A+

  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!

  Absolutely amazing visit! The staff were very friendly, and the collection of beautiful animals is astounding. It is a small and growing business, with an excellent owner who seriously loves the animals. Today I held a snake named Cuddles, whose name did not mislead. She was a well tempered and beautiful snake. The owner was very good with children as there were small children that were shown how to handle the snake and seemed to have a wonderful time. The prices are very reasonable, with the staff always trying to provide the best price for the customers. The gift shop has a wide selection of appropriately priced goods. To anyone that is thinking about going to tasmania, and especially the east coast, this is a must to vist. If i ever come to tasmania again this will definitely be high priority.

  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.

  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.

  What an incredible experience!
One of our boys is obsessed with snakes and we all had such an amazing time here. We learned so much and enjoyed the whole experience.
Clean facilities, friendly owners and I highly recommend stopping by with your family 👌

  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.

  We had a wonderful day with Mathew and his volunteers. We had an amazing hands on experience with many of the reptiles and up and personal encounters with others. We will most definitely be back! How lucky is Tassie to have this! A real hidden gem.

  Anaconda is the highlight of this place along with baby kangaroos

  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.

  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

  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.

  My family had a great time at the Serpentarium in St. Helen's! I will never forget it actually and will Return. Very reasonable pricing. Quite accessible. The variety of reptiles on display was bigger than expected, and we were thoroughly informed about each species by the knowledgeable staff and volunteers. The hands-on experience was a highlight, allowing us to interact closely with the reptiles, an unforgettable memory for all of us. What stood out the most was the genuine passion and dedication of the hosts, it wasn’t just a job or business but a love. They generously spent time and energy ensuring both the animals and visitors had a fantastic time. The children were captivated, and the adults were equally enchanted by the amazing reptiles. A must-visit for anyone seeking an educational and enjoyable day out with the family! 🐍🌿 thank you for your hospitality, we 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.

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

  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

  Incredible reptile experience at Serpentarium! The reptiles enclosures are immaculate and all the reptiles look healthy and happy! The carpet python handling experience is AMAZING! Staff are fabulous - friendly, helpful and ensure you get the most out of your reptile handling experience. Highly recommend - a must do on the East Coast!

  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.

  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.

  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

  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.

  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.

  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.

  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.

  Definitely worth a visit if your passing through or staying in st helens.
The owners are very knowledgeable and have a genuine passion for what they do. The children are also amazing with the reptiles and great to chat with 😊
A great hands on experience, my son absolutely loved! We will definitely be returning again for a third time.

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

  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 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.

  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
