Get up close with Australia’s most fascinating reptiles. At Wild Action, our reptile encounters put you face-to-face with live animals and tertiary-qualified zoologists, with hands-on interactions you’ll remember long afterwards.
We come to you across Melbourne and within 2.5 hours of the CBD, making unforgettable wildlife experiences more accessible than ever.
Hold, Handle, and Get Up Close with Australian Reptiles
These aren’t behind-the-glass moments. Our reptile encounters are fully hands-on, guided by tertiary-qualified zoologists who bring the animals to you and explain their behaviours, keeping every interaction safe and engaging.
From scales to tails, our reptile family gives guests of all ages a new perspective on some of Australia’s most misunderstood creatures.

Who are Reptile Encounters For?
Kids’ Parties
Want to throw a birthday party the kids won’t forget? Our reptile encounter kids’ parties bring the wow factor right to your venue. Safe, supervised and fun, our animal handlers know how to read a room and keep kids of all ages engaged from start to finish.
School and Childcare Incursions
Our school and childcare incursions are curriculum-aligned and presented by zoologists, covering animal behaviour, conservation and Australian biodiversity across all year levels. We bring our Melbourne reptile incursions to schools and childcare centres across Melbourne, turning any classroom or hall into a live wildlife experience.
Corporate Events
Looking for a wildlife activation that gets people talking? Our Melbourne reptile encounters are a memorable addition to corporate events, conferences, team days and community activations. There’s nothing quite like a shared experience with a python to break the ice.
Why Wild Action?
Wild Action was founded in 1994 by Chris Humfrey, a tertiary-qualified zoologist with more than 30 years of hands-on experience working with Australian wildlife. Chris and his team have built one of Victoria’s most respected wildlife education programs, and that expertise shows in every encounter we deliver.
Our private 11-acre zoo in the Macedon Ranges is home to more than 2,000 native animals, and it’s the foundation of everything we do. Rather than asking you to travel to a reptile park, our team brings the encounter directly to your venue, fully equipped and ready to go.
Prefer to visit us? Private zoo excursions to our Macedon Ranges facility can be arranged for schools, families, and organisations looking for a more immersive behind-the-scenes experience, addressing exactly what people searching for reptile park encounters have in mind.
