What To Expect
Kuranda Koala Gardens
Start your self-guided wildlife encounter at Kuranda Koala Gardens. At the gardens, you’ll get up-close to freshwater crocodiles and have the chance to feed kangaroos and wallabies. Feeding the kangaroos and wallabies is conducted under supervision from the amazing team at the gardens and the animals have the freedom to accept the food you are offering or go and relax ~ being a kangaroo is tough work!. You'll also see the elusive wombats – these sleepy, shy animals are the world's largest burrowing mammals and aren’t often seen in the wild, so don’t miss them! You also have the opportunity to see the rare Greater Bilby, the Northern Bettong, Mahogany Glider and more in the new ‘Nocturnal Wonders’ exhibit.
Birdworld Kuranda
While at Kuranda Koala Gardens, you’ll receive your ticket for Birdworld, where Australia’s largest flock of free-flying birds awaits! Just a short walking distance from the Koala Gardens, this massive flight aviary is landscaped with water features and rainforest plants, home to more than 80 species of native and rare birds. Spot cassowaries, increasingly rare in the wild, as well as bowerbirds, parrots, lorikeets, cheeky cockatoos and other Australian birds. You’ll also see international visitors such as South American macaws.

5.00Small place but worth a visit to take a picture with koala. Bird sanctuary has beautiful birds in vibrant colors. I was happy to see kangaroos and few other animals in this small place.
Good day in kuranda

4.00Too great little family owned parks say a hour each is about right . Just to note the koala pictures are stood by the animal touching it rather than holding it as in past years . $28 for 1 person in a pic price goes up a bit depending on people numbers
A good place to visit.

4.00Loved the Koala Park and Bird world. However, I don't agree with having pictures taken with Koalas, they should be left alone. Some of the enclosures appeared too small for some of the other animals. A good place to visit and feeding the birds was a highlight, especially after a Macaw sat on my head!
