Worth getting the stamp on the booklet so you can return for free over three days. Also good to know locals get a discount. Spent longer here than we thought we would. Crocodiles are fascinating

Thats a great place to go in Cairns region for sharing a nice family day! Lost in the middle of North Queensland stunning nature, this park is amazing for discovering Australian wildlife. Do not miss the cruise to discover the crocodiles, at all ages, this is a great moment of fun . Park is not huge but this is enough for spending the day. Do not miss the encounters with the animals, the staff is always to share their experience!

In October my wife and I were fortunate to spend time at your park before leaving on our cruise from Cairns. We would like to pass on our gratitude the Management and Staff of the park for an enjoyable and extremely informative visit, the facilities and displays are of a world class standard,and we could not fault the staff. On our cruise we were fortunate to sit next to one of your staff at dinner along with her husband, we believe her name was Kylie and she worked at your souvenir counter, would you please pass on our regards to her as she is a fine example of the standard of your staff.

We spent 8 hrs & had a fantastic time at the very well presented Hartley's Crocodile Park. If you are interested in Australian animals, (especially crocodiles) you will really enjoy the animal feeding & informative information sessions. A special visit to the crocodile farm & a boat ride around the lagoon to spot crocodiles were highlights.The staff were brilliant, very knowledgeable & friendly.

Stunning, world class attraction This is by far one the best attractions Cairns has on offer, well priced to get in ($32 per adult) and one could easily spend a good 5 to 6 hours in there. The tours and shows are top notch, informative, educational and extremely entertaining!
Well done to all the staff out there, keep up the amazing awesome work. a credit to you all.response / report this review -

Wow! This place is awesome especially if you want to see LOTS of crocodiles. Admission fee included a lagoon tour by boat which was great seeing many crocodiles swimming and bathing on the banks. Our guide showed us plenty of action too with feeding them. We also went to the feeding show which was informative and interesting and again we saw a lot of activity between the staff and croc's. We then went to the freshwater crocodile area and saw some of their activity.There was other animals at the adventure park too such as koala's,snakes,cassowary's,kangaroos,emu's,wombats and more however we were personally more interested in the crocodiles as that is something we don't normally see.unfortunately for us we only had a few hours to spare the day we went but could have easily spent the day there!

Simply awesome!
We stopped by Harley's on our way from Palm Cove to Port Douglas and we didn't expect to be there for so long!
They have a very reasonable entry fee to the park for what they have on offer! There are activities every 30 - 60 minutes that range from animal feedings, lagoon tours and talks about farming practices.
You are also able to have your photo taken with some of the koalas, crocodiles and snakes!
All of the presenters and guides are lovely, full of energy and can present all the information very well to children.
People of all ages will thoroughly enjoy themselves here.
Make sure you plan your day around this place as I guarantee that you will want to enjoy everything they have on offer!response / report this review -

Have been coming here for years and it has always been very pleasant. The recent upgrades and additional enclosures have made it even better. The only negative for us is that Duncan the ranger is no longer here. We used to love the boat tour with him as he was really funny and used to leave everyone in stitches laughing. He really made the whole experience FIVE STAR and one of the reasons we kept coming back. The boat tours just aren't the same without him so this is a major disappointment for us. In general it's a fabulous place to spend the day or even half the day.

Awesome Aussie experience, great fun, informative and as up close and personal as it gets. The amenities are great but the animals are better.

Couldn't have been a better full day. The animals are all very well cared for, the surroundings are clean, maintained to a high standard and attractive. The staff are fabulous, from hard working Kristy, Adam with his antics in the croc attack show, the 'professor? ' who was roped in to do our boat ride and also did the hugely informative snake show, the lovely girl (sorry, didn't get her name) at cassowary feeding, the ladies at reception, the cafeteria staff (reasonable venue prices). Schedule in a full day or they have an option for you to come back for free if you can't do it all. This IS a genuine review, I was so impressed with this place, I can't recommend it highly enough. $37 adult entry for a full days entertainment, great value!

We had the best time with our private guide Ricky! Even with it raining like crazy, she got the wombat out for us to meet! The koalas were amazing and so fun to pet and feed! All the animals were so great! Ricky was the one who really made the experience fantastic! Even in all the mud and rain we laughed the whole time!

Lots to see here at Hartley's! Cheap enough for a full day (approx $37 for 2 adults) with lots of things to explore plus shows to watch with the animals.
A big plus is the Crocodile Attack show, those guys are fascinating to watch!
A let down would be the lack of water stations given the heat, people should definitely be able to fill up water bottles and not forced to buy them (especially families in 36 degree heat and humidity). Take your own frozen water bottles! There is a full canteen there however, but you need to drink lots of water in that heat.response / report this review
