Reviews for Melbourne Zoo

We really enjoyed our visit to Melbourne Zoo and had a wonderful day overall. The atmosphere was very pleasant and well maintained, making it a great place to spend several hours. The zoo has a wide range of animals, and the aquatic animals were especially beautiful and enjoyable to see. Some of the animals were hiding or inactive during our visit, which is understandable, so we couldn’t see everything — but this didn’t take away from the overall experience. The reception team were friendly and welcoming, which made a great first impression. I would suggest for the entry fees to be reconsidered, i think it will encourage more attractions. Overall, it was a lovely experience and definitely worth visiting. Highly recommended for a relaxing and enjoyable day out!

Melbourne Zoo is one of the best places to visit in the city, perfect for families, couples, and nature lovers. The zoo is well maintained with spacious, natural-style enclosures that make it enjoyable to see animals up close while still respecting their habitats. There is a great variety of wildlife from around the world, including native Australian animals and exotic species. The walking paths are clean, easy to navigate, and surrounded by greenery, making the visit relaxing as well as educational. Informative displays help visitors learn more about conservation and animal care. Facilities like cafés, rest areas, and amenities are well placed throughout the zoo. Overall, Melbourne Zoo offers a fun, educational, and memorable experience and is definitely worth a visit for anyone exploring Melbourne.

One of Melbourne's most iconic zoos, just 10 minutes from City, a must-visit! The zoo has a clear layout, a quick walk around the paths will take you to the main animals without getting lost. It's clean, with minimal odors, a significant improvement in hygiene compared to many zoos. The koalas were mostly sleeping, but they're undeniably adorable. The kangaroos were also sleeping. Highlights include the Tasmanian devils, emus, and snow leopards.

Happy Australia Day! 🇦🇺🦒🦘🦭🦝 We visit Melbourne Zoo in Parkville today. We literally enjoy nature and wildlife. What we love the most is the architecture here- so unique compared to other zoos in Victoria. Animals from all around the world, including native Australian wildlife. There are many cafe’, playgrounds and rest areas around the zoo. 10 out of 10

It is a really good zoo. Lots of happy animals. Often there are little presentations just going on that you can just join in on; today there was a butterfly room presentation, my kid loved it. There are a few cafes scattered around the place and limited food options pies etc. I advise getting an annual pass to get access to all 4 zoos which are also good days out.
