Melbourne Zoo

I think the Melbourne zoo is a beautiful place for the family.The atmosphere is lovely, and the animals are delightful.Sometimes, it's sad when the enclosures are bare, but honestly, that can't be helped.I do feel entry is still a little steep despite children being free.I also feel that they could update some of the information and signs around to make it look more inviting for the younger ones to read.Overall, it's a beautiful place.

Excellent place for kids for roaming around animals. The place is well maintained and they create natural habitat for animals , huge place , very nice. Me & my husband take zoo membership so we can visit soon.

Always a great day but food prices, especially drinks are out of control. $5 for one cup with no refill is ridiculous. Still, the staff are fantastic, the exhibits great (even if everything is covered in vast quantities of bird poop) & we loved the Lemur experience. Allow at least 6 hours to see everything and pack your own food & drinks.

What a great day out for you and your family. As of 18/06/2023 on weekends and school holidays kids entry is free!The best way to visit the zoo is by becoming a member. Skip the lines and don't bother booking. Just rock up whenever you want. Not too mention entry into Helasville and Werribee open range zoo.Great day to see all the animals!

The whole day was fantastic, we had so much fun. Ventured into the park with 7 year old and 4 year old. We hadn’t seen all the animals and exhibits before the 4 year old was exhausted but it was so worth it.Would go again for sure anyway.Staff were fantasticParking being locked in for 5hours kind of sucked but that’s the councils fault.

A great experience with lots of native and non-native animals, for visitors and locals alike. Much improved in recent years.You’ll need 3-4 hrs to get around the whole zoo.Avoid weekends if you don’t want to be inundated with too many children and strollers.

Melbourne Zoo is one of the best zoos in the world. It is home to over 3,000 animals from all over the globe, and it is committed to animal welfare and conservation. The zoo is located in Royal Park, which is a beautiful park in the heart of Melbourne. The zoo is easy to get to.The zoo offers a number of animal encounters that allow visitors to get up close and personal with some of the zoo's residents. This is a great way to learn more about the animals and see them up close.

We had a great time. We stayed at the zoo for 4hours. In that 4hrs we still didn’t get around to seeing the whole zoo lol that could be because I had two little ones. Can be a lot of walking for them. Would definitely suggest taking one of the trailers (prams).The location is beautiful and is a great place for the kids to run around and tire themselves out. I love the playground spaces and lunch areas. I do wish there was more hot foods there though. There was only one stand open while we were there and it was to busy. I’d definitely pack a bigger lunch to stay longer next time.Last thing I’d suggest buying a year pass as it’s pretty much the same cost as a one day entry.
