Fun day. Staff are very friendly and informative. The bird show was really good. Loved the train around the park to get from a to b. Would recommend.

Wonderful habitats! The animals were amazing. Got to pet the kangaroos. Saw so many koalas very closeup, too. The birds were amazing during the show and were very cool to hear throughout the park. Thoroughly enjoyed the entire exhibit. Definitely recommend.

Pleasant day strolling around Currumbin Widelife Park. Not as many animals as I was expecting however they are probably spread out (due to the size of the place) which probably makes it feel like less. Started at the main entrance, caught the train, walked through all the different areas back to the start. Was quite warm on the day we went. No rain fortunately. Plenty of water refill stations. Not a bad day out. A little pricey for what you get.

A lovely zoo which appears to be looking after its animals. We have been a couple of times now and our children really enjoy this establishment. It has a nice feel to it with the added splash playground, wild bird show, train and arears where you can get in and touch animals. We spent 5 hours here and thoroughly enjoyed our day exploring all of its corners.

Just the best out door day trip to experience with kids. Hand feeding kangaroos, finding hiding animals, walking through beautiful woodlands and hoping on and off the wee train. The bird show was enchanting and we stayed on to watch the trainers working birds through new routines. Easy to get there by bus from Broadbeach. We loved this experience

Great excursion, much good for the kids, trains are run around in the park with several stops. Many different animals and not least birds, had a bird show that impressed, and the focus was on teaching children (and adults) to take care of our nature and the animals.

We had a one-night layover on the Gold Coast and did not want to miss the opportunity to experience something truly Australian—cuddling a koala and interacting with kangaroos. This sanctuary was an absolute delight and made our visit even more special as it took place during our honeymoon. The eagle show was breathtaking, showcasing the birds’ power and grace in a truly majestic way. The lamb shearing demonstration was both fun and informative, providing an entertaining glimpse into traditional Australian farming. The kangaroos were surprisingly gentle and friendly, making it a joy to interact with and pet them up close. In addition, we had the chance to see several other unique Australian animals, including wombats and Tasmanian devils, which made the experience even more memorable. We highly recommend this wonderful sanctuary to visitors of all ages—it is an unforgettable experience and a must-see while visiting the area.
