My experience at Ballarat Wildlife Park was simply incredible. From the moment I entered the park I was greeted by a vibrant atmosphere and surrounded by an array of fascinating animals. Feeding the kangaroos was one of the best parts. These adorable and curious creatures approached me, gently taking food from my hands. It was a unique feeling to be so close to these incredible animals.In addition to the kangaroos, I had the opportunity to see the majestic Bengal tigers. I confess that I was impressed by the size and beauty of these cats. They exuded an imposing presence as they rested in their enclosures. I was also able to observe the dingoes, with their wild look and natural elegance.I can't fail to mention the koalas, who were just adorable. Seeing these lazy, fluffy creatures clinging to the trees, living their peaceful lifestyle, brought a sense of serenity to my heart.As I roamed the park I also encountered a variety of other animals such as wombats, emus, wallabies and colorful birds. Each encounter was an opportunity to learn more about Australia's amazing wildlife and appreciate its diversity.Overall, my experience at Ballarat Wildlife Park was truly wonderful. I recommend everyone to visit and have the chance to connect with nature in a unique way. It's a place where you can appreciate the beauty of animals, learn about conservation and create lasting memories.

Quite enjoyable experience, the opportunity to hand feed the Kangaroos is amazing, great variety of native and exotic animals and decent reptile house, we didn't get to the Tiger exhibit as we were worn out by then, but that gives us something to look forward to next time.

Great little wildlife park, our 5 year old was so entertained by the free roaming kangaroos (get your roo feed for $4 a bag at entrance). The food and coffee in the cafe is a bit overpriced and it would be better to have a couple more toilets built as the queue for the 2 cubicles in the ladies got too long. The animal experiences are extra but are worth it if you are a big fan. Great for seeing Australian wildlife, the tiger seemed a bit of a random add on.

Although a relatively small park, it is packed with wildlife. Park rangers are friendly and highly knowledgeable. The sole cafe was sufficient for the mid walk refreshments. Actually the food was quite decent for semi-meal/snack type food. Free roaming kangaroos for visitors to feed and regular presentations and encounters where you can handle the animals.Overall I felt it was a bit too pricey for the experience, but definitely worth a one time visit if you're in the Ballarat area or passing through.

This was a good adventure, even on a cold day. The animals are all well taken care of. They are calm and friendly, you can get up close (except for the tigers maybe). Even the kangaroos are darn cute. They have different meet sessions you can pay extra for; we did a Wombat session met Fudge. Plenty of tables for a picnic lunch or Cafe on site. We were there for about 4 hrs and comfortably got around to everything without rushing.

Good selection of animals and a very enjoyable visit!Loved that they had quite a few animal presentations that are included in the ticket price (they start after 12pm). Favourite part is being able to feed the freely roaming kangaroos that come up close and able to be petted.
