Crikey! it was absolutely awesome! The best zoo we have ever visited, no exceptions. To put that into perspective we have been to a lot of zoo’s including San Diego. The crocuseum was exceptional. Overall the one thing that struck us was the cleanliness and space. The enclosures were excellent and all the staff were so friendly and happy. This was personally one of the most enjoyable days out ever!

I had an absolutely amazing time at Australia Zoo! The entire experience was both fun and unforgettable. One of the highlights of the day was unexpectedly seeing Robert Irwin perform live at the Crocoseum! His energy and passion for wildlife were so contagious.
We also had a lovely up-close encounter with the kangaroos, who were so calm and friendly. But what really stole my heart were the koalas, they are just the cutest! I seriously can’t stop gushing about them. The zoo is beautifully maintained, the staff were super friendly, and you can really feel the love and care they have for the animals.
Highly recommend a visit if you're anywhere near the Sunshine Coast. It's such a special place!

It rained heavily after we got to the zoo. Thankfully the shop had plenty of ponchos and there were some shelters. The highlights were patting koalas, hanging out with roaming lemurs and seeing Bindi do the croc show! We also got a photo with a Wedged tail Eagle and enjoyed a walk through of their animal hospital.

I highly recommend booking through Klook. The animal hospital is also worth a visit. When I went, I happened to see some injured little animals being carefully cared for by the staff. I hope they recover soon.

Arrive on time, depart on time for the return trip, and return to the city on time. The animals of the zoo are very interesting, among which koalas and kangaroos can be touched for free.
