Pro tips to help you make a pick

Book animal encounters in advance, especially on weekends and school holidays, as sessions can fill quickly.

Plan 2–3 hours to experience walking trails, keeper talks, and feeding opportunities.

Wear comfortable walking shoes and bring weather-appropriate clothing for outdoor bushland conditions.

Check accessibility needs in advance—most paths are flat, but lantern tours require moderate walking.

Photography is welcome — respect animals by avoiding flash in sensitive areas.

Visit the café and gift shop for Australian souvenirs and refreshments before or after exploring.
