Quite enjoyable
Trudy D4.0Sep 2024Despite the dismal weather, My husband and I quite enjoyed the tour. Brendan, the tour guide tried to keep our spirits up by being talkative and friendly. Brendon was also very informative and a very good singer! I enjoyed the music played on the bus. It would’ve been great though if Brendan showed us around the sanctuary instead of sending us out on our own.Fun, informative and relaxing!

KristinaDevoulyte4.0Aug 2024The train and the sanctuary were amazing. I was not impressed with the company's schedule for the day: we were dropped off at a small platform of Menzies Creek station and we were supposed to spend 45 minutes on that platform with nothing to do. There is a small museum but it is apparently open just for a couple of hours daily and it was closed by the time we got there. Thankfully our tour guide Nic was thinking on his feet and took us to a nearby lookout, which saved the day, even though it resulted in him doing way more driving than originally anticipated.
