We walked slowly and genuinely enjoyed our time at the Koala and Butterfly sanctuaries. Getting to pet a Koala and take a photo was great (not included in ticket cost). There was plenty of time to shop and sit and have a nice lunch before heading back to town. Our bus was on time for pick up and drop off. All staff was lovely and we really enjoyed our day!

4.00It was a great day , the activities were really enjoyable, riding the sky rail and gold class Kurrunda Rail service. The disappointment for this day was , the instructions for meeting an options for pick up were not clear . We were told something different by everyone we asked prior to the day of the trip . Luckily we arrived at Skyrail early , so we got our tickets.
Amazing experience!
