5.0It was a great experience. Enjoyed the history of sites along the river by Captain Rory. The sanctuary was so calming and peaceful. We were able to pet a koala and feed the kangaroos. The River Cruise crew Hayden and Liam were terrific as well. They were kind and helpful and Hayden makes a mean sausage roll....delicious!
Up close viewing of many...
