Fantastic way to learn about the area. The bird show was a highlight and the lovely guides who took us on a walking tour. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes and a hat, and bring some water to drink.

Gday. Wow this was ripper stuff. Make sure you get a guide. She was excellent. Also go to the bird show. this will blow your mind. and scare the crap out of you. Take heaps of water and wear a brimmed hat. can get hot.. If all good make sure you do a full leaisurely lap. Very interesting info. Oh and very useful knowledge if you go to Ayers Rock and Kings Canyon afterwards. As we did. And spend some bucks in the shop. support the locals.

This must be the best activity in Alice Springs. A well thought out park generously presenting the fauna and flora of the central Australian desert. The nocturnal displays were a real joy. Great guides. Very helpful audio guides. It is not cheap, but it is worth every cent of the admission price. A very peaceful and enjoyable day.

Visited here with husband and 6yo child. We purchased day entry only as the nocturnal tour wasn't held on the weekends. We did however for $10 each buy an echidna encounter. The park attendant gave us a map and explained where to head to and what times. So first stop was the free flight show. After the show you could have a photo with an owl or eagle. Miss 6yo chose both and it was gorgeous. Then we wandered until it was time to go to the echidna in the cinema. This meant to could sit down and have a close look whilst the little echidna walked around and explored. The rest of the park was so well set out and the nocturnal house was amazing! The Cafe is currently closed but they have a visiting food van between 11am and 2pm. I am not sure if it's the same each time but we had Japanese and it was lovely! Bring the kids and expect to be here a good half day if not more.

Without question the highlight of any Alice Springs experience, the birds of prey presentation was truely special. The host gives an informative talk covering a number of the native birds to the region and on queue each bird appears from nowhere to demonstrate a number of flying skills or tricks unique to the specie. The back drop to the stage is also stunningly encompassed by mountains in the distance. There is a clear visible passion from the park ranger hosts who are quick to add bonus additional facts to the show as a number of impromptu guest appearances happen throughout the presentation with the local birdlife either popping in for a drink at the watering hole or soaring high above patrolling the skies. The nocturnal displays are yet another highlight within the grounds which have so much more to offer.
