Visitor Reviews

**★★★★★ Nicole Broom — 2 weeks ago

A friend and I visited over the Xmas holidays recently. We had a brilliant time, food was great, the bird show was absolutely brilliant. The animal enclosures were all clean and spacious and the animals all seemed extremely well cared for. We particularly enjoyed the educational aspects of each show. I would definitely recommend going to the Sanctuary if you like animals and want to know a bit more about them especially Australian natives.

Great place to visit and it's not overly crowded. It's a big place so a tip is tou use the train within the park. Best draw card was the bird show, and if you want to feed the lorikeets, attend the park after a few rain days, as they will be hungry and looking for alternative food sources.

A must visit and an amazingly well run park. All the staff were friendly and more than happy to share their wealth of knowledge about the animals. The park itself is a good size and great for adults and kids alike. Spent a good 4 hours there and would come back. I recommend buying the tickets prior to entering as you can skip the longer line. Also 8-9am is the lorikeet feeding time which is peak excitement!
