Hartley's Crocodile Adventure...An Unforgetable Experience - We booked a "Breakfast With Koalas" & enjoyed being able to pat Rosie, a 4 year old female Koala who was very calm & affectionate! An amazing experience! We then took a boat trip around a lagoon while watching the guide feed some of the huge crocodiles! It was fascinating to watch these huge crocodiles surrounding our boat & jumping out of the water to grab a chicken that the guide had dangling on a pole! Their jaws are so powerful that they sound like a gunshot when they snap their jaws! Aidan, our boat operator & crocodile expert was very informative & gave a great crocodile tour! When visiting Cairns, don't miss visiting Hartley's Crocodile Adventure! So much to see here!

Up close and personal with some crocs - Wow. I have never been so close to saltwater crocodiles. I felt very safe and the guide was very funny and educational. He knew the area very well and shared a lot with us.

Hartleys crocodile experience - Great 1/2 day at Hartleys crocodiles . Very interesting & lots of reptiles to see. The snake show was good seeing 2 different types of snake out of their surroundings . The crocodile show was fantastic with a very brave lady taking the lead & showing us how ferocious the cricket was . All in all a great 1/2 day trip !

Great experience - There is the best crocodile attack show I have ever watched. And best snake talk that lady talked so much details about snakes and she answered all the questions from audience.

Nice Crocodile experience, DO NOT use the pick up service cause they rush you so much - We love the Hartley crocodile experience. The three star is for the hotel pick up service. We got picked by 8:20 am and told return is going to be 1:30pm. To whom ever organised these time: it is a 45 minutes drive, by the time bus arrived at Hartlley’s, it is already passed 9am, which people would miss the 9am Cassowary Feeding and Crocodile Farm show. The leaving time is even more ridiculous, 1:30pm, it will not give you enough time to finish the 1pm Crocodile Farm show started at 1pm, you won’t have enough time to enjoy the Crocodile pie from the Cafe; you will even have NO chance at all to make the 3pm Crocodile Attack Show. Because we have to make our way back at 1:30pm! Spent almost few hundreds $$ for the day (two adults and two kids) and was rushed out of the park. It was a shame. I would tell all my friends to hire a car or call Uber there. Because that way, you get to see what you have paid for and enjoy your time there. Not to be rushed and miss out on activities.

Could have been honest - Advised operator that we would be travelling from Port Douglas, they suggested we met the trip at the park. We did this and paid £120 for the trip only to be given a park entry ticket that would have cost me £50 to buy on the gate
