KOALA 11:30AM and 1:30PM

While visiting the Park, why not take the time to get up close and personal with one of our Koalas. During a Koala experience you may pat the Koala, and get nice and close. However, due to Victorian Laws you are unable to hold or carry the Koala. If temperatures are 30+ degrees photos may be cancelled or re-scheduled, as we cannot be handling the Koalas at such high temperatures. The scheduled times for the koala experience is at 11:30am & 1:30pm. Koala experiences are from $55.00 and extra copies of your photo are available for $10.00.

GIANT TORTOISE 12:00PM

While visiting the Park, why not take the time to have your picture taken with Hugo the Giant Tortoise who is over 45 years old! During winter the tortoise experience can be canceled due to the colder weather. The scheduled time for the Tortoise experience is 12pm. Giant Tortoise experiences are from $50.00 and extra copies of your photo are available for $10.00.

SNAKE 2:30PM

While visiting the Park, why not take the opportunity to have a photo taken of you with a Snake around your shoulders. The experiences are often taken with our Boa Constrictor or our Coastal Carpet Python. During the winter Snake photos can be cancelled, as we do not bring the Snakes out in the cold. The scheduled time for the snake experience is at 2.30pm. Snake experiences are from $50.00 and extra copies of your photo are available for $10.00.
