Such an awesome experience

Cass 18 May 2026

The keeper was incredibly knowledgeable and the encounter was delightful. Such beautiful creatures and a real treat to see them up close and personal.

Not worth it.

Greta 29 January 2026

The zoo keeper couldn't keep the cuddly kitty cat off her while she told us why we weren't allowed to pet it. Halls Gap do a much more interactive Serval experience, and much cheaper. I'd actually recommend Halls Gap or Ballarat Wildlife Park for all animal experiences.

Customer Experience

Thanks for sharing your feedback, Greta. We are sorry to see that this experience did not meet your expectation.
