This is such a lovely venue. Our visit was interesting snd educational, we all enjoyed it so much, a lovely way to spend a morning or an afternoon. It was very helpful having the rangers on hand to show you round and explain everything. Petting the young crocodile was a terrific way to end the visit and was included in the entrance fee. Superb value.
