>It's a surprising sight: in the largest crocodile farm in the Mediterranean, 400 Nile crocodiles evolve in a setting that reconnects with the Saharan and African depths of the country, among papyrus, palm trees and banana trees. They laze in the sun in the ponds and the tropical greenhouse before frolicking and fighting for food. A real change of scenery.
An imposing fort evoking desert architecture marks the entrance to the wildlife park. It is to the sound of African music that we let ourselves be guided towards the pools and the tropical greenhouse where swim – or rather laze in the sun – 400 Nile crocodiles, brought from Madagascar. The Nile crocodile is one of the largest species of crocodilians, it can reach, for certain males, up to 7 meters and weigh almost a ton. Its morphology makes it one of the most formidable species.

a week agoBeautiful and well maintained park. A delight for adults and children. Massive amount of 600 crocodiles all over the place. The reptile show is short but interesting. The picture option with a baby crocodile isn't necessary and should not even be proposed at the first place

4 months agoThis was a fantastic day here, on entering it was so clean and very beautiful. There is some shops and cafes. The museum was very nice filled with history and exhibitions of all kinds of items, for people that do not understand the french language it is a little more difficult for them to translate, I did not have this problem. The 2nd part was seeing the different building that tunisian people live in and how they do the wool and weaving. There was a beautiful camel and showing how they use the camel to bring the water up from the well. The cafe before the crocodiles was were good and by the side was a little shop, just inside hanging up is a skeleton of a crocodile slight niggle this shop to me was very expensive. There was some very large tortoises, lizards and of course the magnificent crocodiles and truly they are some really massive ones. The settings for the animals was really good. They looked very contented and extremely well fed. At the end you could hold a baby crocodile I didn't do this as the queue was very big and I thought the baby crocodile might be a little stressed. Overall a very very good trip highly recommend.

2 weeks agoOur visit to the Djerba crocodile farm was made truly memorable thanks to our excellent guide! From the very beginning, the knowledge and passion for the site were evident. He provided insightful information about the crocodiles, their habitat, and the conservation efforts in place. It was fascinating to learn so much from someone so clearly enthusiastic about the work. What truly set our guide apart was his impressive command of the Russian language. We greatly appreciated the clear and engaging explanations provided entirely in Russian. This made the experience so much more enriching and accessible for us. Beyond the language skills, our guide was also incredibly engaging and attentive to us. He answered all our questions thoroughly and made sure everyone felt included and informed. Their expertise extended beyond just the facts. This tour was a highlight of our trip to Djerba, and our guide played a significant role in making it so enjoyable and educational. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area, especially if you're looking for a knowledgeable guide who can offer insights in Russian. A truly fantastic experience!
