Reptile Village
With over 120 animals in 50 exhibits, from alligators to geckos, rattlesnakes to pythons, Reptile Village Zoo is Ireland's only reptile zoo, fully licensed by the Department of the Environment. Your chance to get up close and personal with animals you'd normally only see on TV.
Situated in Gowran, Co. Kilkenny, Reptile Village Zoo is suitable for all age groups. Ideal day out for families, individuals and groups. Only large groups need to prebook, otherwise just turn up whenever suits! Offering a hands on approach, the staff give you the opportunity to handle some of the friendlier snakes, lizards and tortoise.
They also have a mobile education team, suitable for parties, schools, corporate events etc. The "Zoo to You" service is part of their conservation through education program.
