Koala Park Sanctuary Sydney

Koala Park is an okay place to spend a couple of hours, but it’s not something I’d call a must-visit. The koala show was definitely the best part—the presenter explained everything very clearly and made it easy to understand, which was enjoyable. Apart from that, the park felt quite limited. There weren’t many other animals or activities to keep things exciting, so after the show, there wasn’t much to explore. It’s fine if you’re already in the area and want a short outing, but I wouldn’t recommend making a special trip just for this. Overall, a decent experience mainly for the koala show, but not much beyond that.

Cannot believe how amazing this place is. From outside it looks quite unassuming so we drove past it numerous times and didn’t visit until now. The animals are so lovely and interactions are simply magical memory. Even the cafe food are nice. Easily had a great relaxing time with animals in a natural setting.

I had a lovely time, went by myself and stayed ~4 hours. The part that surprised me most was the staff, they were so very human. I've been to many wildlife sanctuaries where the staff are just worker drones, but here EVERY staff member will happily talk. Especially enjoyed the fact that they didn't "pretend to know" things, one lady even told me she wasn't sure of an answer to my question so she wrote it down on a notepad so she could research and know for future reference. I'm so happy to see young, passionate people in fields like this.

Much better than expected, great value. They have a good range of animals and several places you can pet the animals at no extra cost. Informative keeper talks and you can get up close to almost all the animals. The one star lost is that this place is not disability friendly. The pavement is old and uneven so wheelchairs and anyone unsteady on their feet may have a hard time getting around. The established trees name this place feel like you are in the remote bush with these animals, a great experience.

A lovely small wildlife sanctuary. We were surprised at how much there was, and it was a really nice trip out for the afternoon. It was so incredible to get up close to the kangaroos, they were all so gentle and friendly. The sheep and goats are a lot more rowdy (they ate our entire bag of food and covered us in mud) but that being said they did give us a good laugh. The koala talk was also amazing, I appreciated the way we were able to get up close to the koalas but were told not to touch them which reassures me that they care for the animals first and foremost.
