Koala and Kangaroos

We had an amazing time first taking the cruise down the river learning about all of the cool things in the city of Brisbane. Then when we go to the Koala Sanctuary it was an amazing experience. All of the employees were super pleasant and talked with us and answered tons of questions. Feeding the kangaroos and the Wallabies was the highlight of the day. Seeing the Koalas all over the park was a close second. It was a tremendous experience.

Arrived, easy to navigate the payment at front gate.
Walked around at own pace which was very enjoyable.
Then mum booked for koala experience 2.5 mins with koala on a tree 🤷‍♀️ lovely photos but didn’t get to hold koala.
Me I booked the dingo experience, giving me 20mins one on one experience with handler and educator, I got to rub cuddle and have amazing photos with both dingos

It was an easy drive from central Brisbane. We had the full koala tour, and it was really awesome. You get to go inside an enclosure, and get really close to the koalas, but also you learn a ton more than I was expecting. For example, at one point they hand out different eucalyptus varieties for you to smell. And at the end, we got to hold a koala, although I hear they've stopped doing that now. All the koalas though smelled like eucalyptus and were so, so soft!
There are koalas everywhere in this sanctuary, and they're all fun to see. But there are other animals as well! We did a behind-the-scenes platypus tour. We got to see the oldest living platypus sleeping in his enclosure, and then we got to see the entire behind-the-scenes operation before getting to personally feed the younger platypus!
There are also birds, bats, farm animals, wombats, and all kinds of other animals to see. The cafe has really solid food, and the gift shop is wonderful (lots of really unique pieces done by artists). I highly recommend staying for the end of the day. Koalas are nocturnal animals and really wake up around the end of the visiting hours!
