Alice Springs Reptile Centre

Great centre. Handled an olive python. The exhibits are wonderful.

A great spot to get some lizard and snake interface. Snakes all in beautiful condition - so we're the lizards but it was peel time for a few of them so they weren't dressed in their Sunday best, so to speak. All of the inhabitants of the centre who weren't asleep were very curious and watched me as much as I watched them, they are bright eyed and were in good condition. One wee beardie in the outside area busting to make a break, and he was just bugging the heck out of his shingleback flatmate. Apart from that everyone seemed very happy and well settled in their habitats. Terry the saltie was well ensconced in his bachelor pad out the back - a good presentation talk was given about Terry's history and salties in general.Altogether a nice way to spend half an hour or more when you are in Alice Springs.

We loved our visit to The Reptile Centre. Rex, the owner, was a great guide and very knowledgeable.

Awesome! Displays are great and the Reptile Show plus the handling of olive phyton 'Ziggy' was something I will never forget!

Great family outing.Make sure you go when they do their talk, it's very informative and educational for kids. Kids also get to hold the reptiles.Good value for money if you're on a budget.

Wonderful place to visit and get some reptile knowledge. The staff are amazing and the exhibits are well kept

Small but a gem of a place. Staffed with a team really passionate with what they do. Reptiles are very, very active within their enclosures. At all other reptile parks I've visited (apart from Australia Zoo), the reptiles don't move. Those at Alice Springs Reptile Centre love the attention from visitors and they return the attention.The best part of the visit was the show. We had Angela who, although only 2 months into the job and in the country, was so engaged with the audience and made us all laugh with her snippets of information and her anecdotes.Showtimes are at 11am, 1pm and 3:30pm.Thanks Angela for the very entertaining show.

We took our grandsons here , arrived in time for the croc talk from Rex , very entertaining. The demonstration and talk about snakes and blue tongues was great . A chance to hold the olive python if you dare , amazing creature. A cuddle with the blue tongue was a favorite with the boys . We had a great time looking at all the lizards and snakes and Terry the croc . Our favorite was the thorny devil . A great place well worth a visit

This is a must visit attraction in Alice springs (perhaps not... if Reptiles, Snakes etc are not your cup of tea!) There's a huge range of Snakes especially to look at, take pictures and so on. There are also 3 shows daily where one gets to handle a lovely (non venomous) Lady Python. She's gorgeous, you are required to be real gentle with her while handling. The only disappointment perhaps was that, there was only one lazy Crocodile snoozing inside an enclosure, not bothered by the visitors. Having a few more Crocks there may be an idea! But overall, it's a great place to visit. The ladies at the reception/staff are very nice people too.

Was great to go see all the reptiles there I love reptiles and know a fair bit about them and I still learnt somethings I didn't know before the show was awesome aswell got to handle a few different reptiles and learn something new was pretty cheap aswell well worth it
