A fun, low-key half-day out for families with young kids. The park features live crocodiles, reptiles, other animals, and feeding sessions that are a big hit with curious little ones.

So leisure for me. There's so many type of crocodile. They also prepare informative exhibition talks to educate us about crocs also opportunity to give crocs eat! They have other animals too (deer, skunk, birds, reptiles) have pools as well for kids and have many gazebo for resting. Also wheelchairs friendly for those who needs.

Nice, chill spot to spend some time. It’s not very big, so around one to two hours is just right. They have a few crocodile feeding sessions throughout the day, so go early or you’ll miss it like I did. There are also different animal feeding areas. There’s even a small waterpark included in the ticket price, which was weird. Just be prepared because there isn’t much shade and it gets really hot during the day. Parking is easy since there are plenty of spaces around.

Taman Buaya & Rekreasi Melaka offers a decent family outing, especially for my kids who enjoy seeing crocodiles up close 🐊 for the first time. The park has some variety of reptiles and a few other attractions that keep children entertained. While this evergreen attraction place is spacious and has potential, it could use more engaging activities or interactive shows to make the experience livelier and memorable. Still, it’s a pleasant and quick stop for young families looking for simple, educational visit while in Melaka city.

Great place to visit for kids. Park isn't that big, but fun with the feeding (RM10 per pack). Not crowded on a Friday afternoon. Takes about 2 to 3 hours to complete the visit. Horse riding is available at RM10 for 1 round.
