Tasmanian Devil Feeding Tour . November 2023 - We thoroughly enjoyed our tour at Devils @Cradle . Our guide was very knowledgeable about the Tasmanian devils and the Quolls in residence there. We got to spend as much time as we wanted looking around following the tour . The Devils are quite fascinating and it’s good to see the conservation efforts being made to ensure their species survives . Also good to know that visitors are helping to keep the sanctuary going buy visiting and buying tickets as they do not get any funding from anywhere to help with the running costs .

Highly recommend this encounter - Highly recommend this self funded Tasmanian Devil and Quoll animal conservation. A very informative hour long walk through the park with lots of young, juvenile and adult Devils on view. The presentation, by Prue, was both interesting and entertaining. The feeding of 5 adult male Devils was quite a show. Highly recommend

Cutie devils - We had a really interesting feeding tour with Rory. He answered lots of questions and was really passionate and knowledgeable. Cutie little animals even if watching them eat is a bit gross. Also gave us some gloves to pick up road kill on the long drive back to Hobart. Was great fun flinging it in bushes to keep the roads clear of tassie devils searching for food.

Fantastic experience. Great guide - The staff were really welcoming. We were unable to make the original booking (snow) and they readily suggested an alternate time. The Guide was knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating to a range of different needs within our group. Very worthwhile
