What makes it 83% Couple-Friendly: Pairs can share boat seats, book a koala breakfast or Zootastic 5 for private moments, then unwind over lunch by the lagoon; varied shows add lively conversation to a romantic adventure.
Why 3-4 hours visit duration is ideal for couple trip: This allows time for the boat cruise, key wildlife shows and a self-guided boardwalk at a relaxed pace.
Lagoon Boat Cruise:
Glide close to saltwater crocodiles and tropical birds on a guided 20-minute boat tour.
Tip: Arrive 15 minutes early to secure a front-row seat for better wildlife views.
Crocodile Attack Show:
Watch handlers trigger a dramatic croc strike on a floating bait platform.
Tip: Grab a spot at the water’s edge for an overhead view of the jump.
Self-guided Boardwalk:
Stroll 2.5 km of wetland and rainforest trails to spot wallabies and exotic birds.
Tip: Use the map at the entrance to pick less-crowded loops for a quieter experience.
Koala Breakfast:
Enjoy plated Aussie breakfast on the lagoon deck with a koala patting session.
Tip: Book at least one day in advance to guarantee a morning tour spot.
Zootastic 5 Premium Encounter:
Spend an hour feeding cassowaries and handling pythons on a small-group tour.
Tip: Reserve online before arrival to avoid sold-out slots.

My boyfriend and I were hesitating to come here because we had already visited another wildlife park during this trip. But we decided to go anyway, and we had absolutely no regrets! What a beautiful park. They treat the animals really well, the information shared during the shows is very interesting, and everything looks well maintained. Definitely a must-visit (and if you’re still doubting, consi...

Hartley’s Crocodile Farm is such a fun day out, something we always recommend to travelers visiting Cairns or Australia. The whole park is very relaxed for you to wonder around at your own pace. Wear comfortable shoes and I highly recommend a hat and some water. The heat can get stifling under the shade sails during the shows just due to the lack of airflow so be aware of that if going on a warm ...

Harley’s Croc Adv was out of this world. One of the most amazing and exciting places we’ve visited as a family. The shows are so amazing and a must do for all kids as well. It teaches you so much. And guys who do the show are Brady and informative as well. In face I strongly believe it should be a must do for all kids. If you’re in Australia you must visit this place.

Great experience with a lot of things to see. Not only crocs, but also snakes, koalas and a lot more! Loved the snake and croc shows. Super crowded on school holidays. 6 sits in a row on the boat, so if you are placed last you are likely to be far away from the action behind people trying to film. Expect queues everywhere and maybe skip one with BYO lunch.

I have t...
