5.00Wonderful family friendly day out visiting all the animals. Loved the park, the friendly staff and the informative talks. A few enclosures were closed for renovations, but you have to expect the ongoing upkeep at a place like this. Fantastic day out all around!
The Zoo is much larger...

5.00The Zoo is much larger than I expected (larger than Sydney Zoo) but few Australian native animals never showed themselves after multiple visit. Nevertheless, it worth your time.
The Zoo to Visit!

5.00Amazing place where you could see platypuses! We were lucky to see the one on a feeding spree! We also saw chimpanzee “flying” the ropes above the ground: This is absolutely unique to this zoo! We spend several hours in the zoo, and they rolled as a three minutes being densely populated with animal and plant views!
Loved the zoo!
