What Can I Expect

Welcome to the venomous snake show! This is your invitation to be amazed (and maybe just a little bit scared!) as the expert snake handler presents some of the world's most deadly snakes. And if that wasn't amazing enough, you'll meet the mini crocs after.

Hosted by the owners of a specialist reptile shop near Bristol, this unusual experience will see you getting up close to some incredible species of snake. Often misunderstood, your hosts will dispel the myths and astound you with fascinating facts about snakes.

How many species of venomous snakes are there in the world? Can a snake bite kill you?  Do snakes have teeth? How come a snake can swallow a big animal? How did the hooding cobra get its name? What is a snake's favourite meal? How does a rattlesnake make that sound? And why do snakes love sunbathing? All these questions and many more will be answered.

After the show, you'll be invited ‘backstage' for a meet and greet. You'll even be able to handle some of the resident snakes (if you're up for it!). It's one of those things that you might feel apprehensive about, but is actually incredible to do.

And as for the crocodiles, well, they are so cute! These miniature species of croc are still formidable hunters, but they are also used to being handled and love nothing more than to pose for a photo with you.

By the end of your experience you'll have learnt loads about reptiles, handled snakes and crocodiles and had your photo taken with them. And remember, your voucher is for a private snake show and meet for up to six of you as an exclusive group. Bring on the venomous serpents!
