Reviews
"Beautifully landscaped area with a wide variety of animals, including birds, mammals, and reptiles. There is a separate bird aviary, which is a lovely experience. Overall, it has a very relaxing atmosphere. Lovely place to visit with kids. You can also take a walk in Queens parks as well as Nerima gardens. Entrance is free. Free parking available."
"What an amazing place! Blew our expectations out of the water! Well done with all the wildlife, and the “flow” of the experience. I loved so many of the animals we saw today including the flying foxes, bilbies, wallabies, and spotted quoll. We even went through twice! You cannot bring food in, so plan to picnic outside before/after OR go to the cafe just a 2 minute walk up the road. There are no toilets inside the park, but there are public restrooms just outside the main entrance. Worth way more than a gold coin donation!"
"Went with my scout group for an outing today. It looks a lot smaller than what it actually is, is very enjoyable, and will definitely be going again. Gold coin donation for entry and massive park across the street."
"The animals here are treated extremely well. The enclosures are always clean and tidy. A great area for school excursions, tourists and a perfect outing for families. Right next to Queens Park!!"
