Nicky JonesJanuary 20, 2015Come early to get parking nearer to zoo. Wonderfully thought out zoo, no matter how small it is. Bring a picnic, food selection is poor and pricy. Buy the year pass if you have a pre-schooler.
Matthew PalliserJanuary 12, 2017If you have kids buy annual pass- it pays for itself once you have gone twice & means you don't have to drag the kids around if they are not having a good day & can come and go as you please.
Maz MaceDecember 22, 2015Love this zoo, the hills can be a mission. Staff are friendly, wild theatre is a highlight
Jasper Van VerdegemMarch 9, 2016It's a small zoo, but really worth a visit! The exhibits are amazing!
Dan SimmonsApril 28, 2014Must visit 'The Nest'. It's a vet clinic you can see into. If you're lucky they'll be vetting something exotic.
Clinton FarleyAugust 12, 2011Must do the Red Pander Encounter. Unbelievable intimate, such smart animals with personality!
- Jesus ChungJanuary 31, 2013Get to feed the giraffe! It is a really great experience. Great place for private events!
- Candice OngFebruary 6, 2013I did a close encounter with the Red Pandas here. Best day of my life. They love pears and grapes so much! :)
