Reviews
"It’s my second time visit Healesville Sanctuary, and it is my favourite zoo in Melbourne! Here has so many Aussie animals, and a lot of super cute koalas! The bird show is obviously amazing! I would like to take my overseas friends to visit here when they travel to Melbourne!"
"even though it takes almost 2 hours from melbourne, this place is really worth a visit. the animals here are left in cages that are made close to their natural habitat. the keepers are also very friendly and knowledgeable. time went by really fast, because we really had so much fun"
"Healesville Sanctuary was amazing, we had the most wonderful day here, it was super relaxing walking around and looking at the animals in the enclosures, the animals are so well kept and the enclosures are lovely and big too. I can highly recommend this would be one of the best animal parks I've ever been too. We loved every bit of it."
"Better than Melbourne Zoo in my opinion. Australian animals birds and parrots and a lot of endangered wildlife. Well worth the drive. Parrot show is exciting. Nice walk in native bush. Check out my photos and videos for a good indicator of what you can see."
