  • Thoroughly enjoyed our guided tour and learning about the conservation & breeding of the Tassie Devils and other Tasmanian wildlife. Was great to get up close and see them interacting with each other ...  more »
  • The devils are incredibly cute and at this park you get incredibly close to them. We heard a couple of them growling and you can tell why the early explorers thought they were demons!  more »
  • The guide was very knowledgeable and we learnt heaps. Rug up though, it's very cold after dark walking around the enclosures  more »

  • Must do when in cradle mountain. We did the night feeding tour. The experience is awesome and is very informative. The guide is very passionate about conservation and we learnt a lot.
  • Really enjoyable and plenty of information available. There are a number of enclosures and Tasmanian Devils, also 2 other species of Marsupial. The tours are very informative and you get to see them close up as they bring some close and feed some others to get them out and about.
  • Great enclosure of Tasmanian Devils and Quols. They really take care of the animals and you can really see them in their habitat. It is mostly outdoors so it is cold. They have tours and feeding shows. They have a shop as well. Overall a great experience.
  • Great place to learn Tasmanian devils. Very educative.
  • Up close and personal with Tassie Devils and quolls
