The beautiful drive to Hartleys, seeing the Koalas, Kangaroos, and crocodiles up close. I enjoyed the crocodile feeding show and the stories of how they ended up at Hartleys.

Was collected by Beaches Meet & Greet for transfer on time from my hotel. I never usually give 5 stars but I had an amazing day saw all I wanted to see arrived about 1.30 pm in time to get a picture with a koala before the snake show then a quick wander round before the crocodile
Attack show then a cruise round the lagoon to see how croc feed. A totally amazing afternoon would recommend

Hartley’s is OK if your into crocodiles - but you don’t need a full day there, 12 onwards is perfect unless you have smaller children you need a little more time
The shows were good and the staff were very knowledgeable
The highlight of the day was getting to taste crocodile meat (you pay for that, it’s in the kiosk section)

The best part was watching the crocs jump out of the water to grab the dangling food, and the croc attack show, where a trainer spent 30 minutes teasing a croc and putting himself up as bait.
