Traveler reviews
This zoo tour is an amazing experience that everyone should try at least once! After spending the morning there, I could see that the entire staff and volunteers are highly professional and genuinely care about the animals. Their dedication creates a relaxed and friendly atmosphere for the animals, making them more comfortable with visitors. I even booked a photo with a koala to help support the zoo's conservation efforts. I definitely recommend taking part in this wonderful experience—you won’t regret it!
We had a great day…The park was extremely busy but we only waited 10 minutes for the train to take us around the perimeter. There are heaps of animals to see and interact with and the wild bird show was amazing and not to be missed..Highly recommend a day trip here. Both adults and kids will love it ❤️
Thank you for the smooth transaction! I book a ticket using klook on the day of our trip cause we didnt plan on anything that day. Search it in google maps and found out that its much cheaper than the website itself. Just show the mobile voucher. Had a great experience in the venue. A lot of animals and gets to see them so close. We ride a train too. Learned alot about their life and how the sanctuary take care of them. Highly recommended.
Perhaps it was luck, but the koalas here were incredibly active, unlike those in other places that are almost always sleeping. We even saw many koalas carrying their babies on their backs and moving around, which was absolutely adorable. The kangaroo enclosure was also very large and spacious, and the kangaroos were lying down, allowing you to pet them. You could easily spend a lot of time and fill up your phone's storage just in the kangaroo area. This is a highly recommended itinerary.
Just tap the QR code at the entrance and you're all set. Very convenient. No need to print. Screenshot also works. Come early. Buy the express pass if you can. It will make your trip more enjoyable. The wildlife encounters here are exceptional, especially the kangaroo feeding area where you can get up close with these gentle creatures. The crocodile show is both thrilling and educational, while the bird free-flight demonstration will leave you in awe. The park layout flows naturally through different habitats, making it easy to navigate. The koala cuddling experience is worth every penny, and the staff are incredibly knowledgeable about conservation efforts. The nocturnal house provides a fascinating glimpse into Australia's nighttime wildlife. The cafe offers decent options, though I recommend bringing snacks to save time.
buying in advance can save the credit card surcharge compared to purchasing the tickets from the booth. still you need to be on the same queue to redeem the tickets with the look voucher. the sanctuary is a good place to visit the animals and there are lots to see inside. highly recommended!
It was the first time I brought my children to the Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary. Compared with the Muzha Zoo in Taiwan, many animals in Muzha Zoo are enclosed by fences or glass and tourists can only watch them. However, the Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary In the area, you can interact closely with small animals such as kangaroos and koalas. Children feel very novel and happy. It is a great travel experience.
I love Currumbin sanctuary wild life very much for its natural environment for Wild life and friendly staff! I am happy to see Koala jumping from trees. Animals there are healthy. Highly recommend to visit!

You'll find iconic Aussie critters like the koalas and kangaroo, alongside more exotic species like lemurs and red pandas.
