Tiny Tourist Trap

Having only one staff member on when there's a line out the door wasn't ideal. Inside was small and over-crowded, and definitely felt more like a tourist trap for overseas visitors, than for locals or anyone who truly cares about wildlife.

DO NOT VISIT

DO NOT VISIT - awful, humiliating and downright cruel. The animals have no space and are simply there to make money for the operators. We are a family of 5 and everybody wanted to leave as soon as they entered - wathching children chase penned in wallabies and a queue of people to hold a koala who had nothing but a stick to sit on, no trees or anything. This simply shouldn’t be allowed. Feel traumatised.

A must for an up close picture with a koala

It’s a must if you want a up close picture with a koala. Taking picture with koala and feeding wallabies were the highlights for this venue. It takes less than one hour but you can see many koalas near by in safe environment. I felt admission fee was appropriate for the situation.

Picture w/a Koala

Loved our interaction with the Koala. Although you don't get to hold the little guy, you can touch and pet and they will take a picture of you and it is printed out before you walk away. They are very generous with letting you take your own pictures as well.
