The koalas alone make it worth the ticket price. There are many animals, the layout is well-planned, and you can feel the dedication of the park staff.

It's really convenient to buy tickets on Klook. The prices are the same as the official website, but you can use Klook discount coupons. This Treetop Challenges is a lot of fun and definitely worth a try.

The park is quite large, offering the chance to see many Australian animals. There's also a treetop challenges activity available for ticket purchase. The staff are very friendly. I highly recommend visiting if you have the opportunity.

I booked the Gold Coast crab catching tour through Klook. The tour group mainly consisted of tourists from Hong Kong, Japan, and Taiwan, with only a few individual travelers. The entire trip lasted two and a half hours and included feeding pelicans, retrieving crab pots, catching small creatures in the mud, and fishing. The captain was humorous and engaging, keeping everyone entertained. However, the "crab catching" simply involved pulling up a pot that I believe was pre-stocked with crabs, but it was still a very fun experience. The seafood platter I added was of average quality; the crab wasn't fresh and was clearly of inferior grade. I hope this can be improved in the future.

Got to get up close with wallabies, kangaroos, and koalas. Totally worth it.

The treetop adventure was thrilling, and the staff were incredibly friendly! I didn't see any crocodiles at Cross Shock, but there were lots of kangaroos!
