Things to do in Caversham Wildlife Park

Although we visited many places in one day, and I understand that everyone has different preferences and we couldn't always stay longer at places I liked, I was mostly satisfied with the itinerary. The hotel pickup and drop-off were very convenient, and lunch was delicious and well-located. We happened to encounter a storm, the likes of which Southwest Australia sees only once every five years, and the car felt like it was swaying on the highway. Fortunately, our tour guide, Cindy, was very experienced and completed the entire trip smoothly!

swan valley cruise including lunch is great! lots of wine to taste!

Tim picked us up at Barrack Square Jetty Pier No 4 - which was clearly informed and fairly on time. The van was comfortable. He also provided bottled water. Loved the fact that Tim had worked in Caversham Wildlife Park before that the entire trip within was on spot on time and well prepared (hint: a bag of food pellets to feed the kangaroos and other animals). We had our lunch at Mandoon Estate where we opted for vegetarian food. Food was served quick and hot and delicious. Next we continued our journey to Margaret River Chocolate Company - Tim gave us some chocolates for free tasting, bought some as souvenirs. Later we were visited the Scarborough Beach which was amazing as the weather was very good as well. And we end our trip to Kings Park, stroll around, took a few memorable pics. Overall, this kinda group tour is expected to be a bit rushed, but served our objectives for the day.

We were able to enter the zoo before it opened and see animals such as koalas up close and take pictures, just for tour members. It was an English tour, but the driver was friendly and announced things in a loud voice, so the English was easy to understand. We shared the bus with Japanese tour members. For lunch, you can upgrade the fish to lobster for an additional AUD25. It was windy, and sunglasses are a must for sandboarding on the dunes as the wind is strong and sand blows around. It was a fun tour.

Nice trip to the Swan Valley, started with a river cruise, wine tasting and lunch from Perth. Then, more wine tasting from 2 wineries, visited a chocolate store, and a beer with fries at a brewery. It’s definitely a trip for people like wines. We have tasted more than 12 wines.

Everything was well organised from start to finish, making the day very relaxing and enjoyable. We visited Sandalford Wines and had a lovely wine tasting experience, followed by sweet and delightful stops at Margaret River Chocolate Factory, Yahava Koffeeworks, Mondo Nougat, and The House of Honey. Each place was unique and enjoyable, and there was enough time to look around and savour each stop. The tour guide was friendly and very kind which made the experience even better. We requested to drop us off in Kings Park after the tour and he didn’t hesitate to accept our request. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a pleasant and memorable day in Swan Valley.

Wildlife Park animals are cute. Kids’ favourite sand dune and 4WD ride. Long lunch time at Lobster Shack due to new year crowd. Sand dune visit was shortened. visited also Pinnacle. Guide was helpful. Speak throughout the journey which can reduce a bit to give some rest time.

The tour guide was very attentive and everything was well-arranged. Each attraction was explained in detail, and even those participating in the tour alone were not forgotten/left out.
