What makes it 90% Kids-Friendly: Kids up to 12 can hand-feed kangaroos, join farmyard shows, use the playground and learn from four daily koala talks; fenced paths, toilets and picnic areas make a relaxed half-day visit.
Why 1–2 hours visit duration is ideal for with kids: Enough time for shows, feeding sessions and a leisurely wildlife walk without tiring young kids.
Self-guided wildlife walk:
Follow marked trails through eucalyptus groves and rainforest to spot wallabies, kangaroos and native birds.
Tip: Bring water, wear sturdy shoes and pause at benches for breaks.
Koala presentations:
Join keeper talks at 10:20 am, 11:45 am, 2:00 pm or 3:00 pm to pat koalas and ask questions.
Tip: Arrive 5 minutes early; limited seating fills fast.
Farmyard & reptile shows:
Attend the 9:30 am and 1:10 pm sessions to meet wombats, goats and reptiles.
Tip: Encourage kids to ask keepers about animal care.
Kangaroo & goat feeding:
Buy feed at the entrance (≈A$2 kangaroo, A$2.50 goat) and hand-feed friendly animals.
Tip: Supervise small children as animals approach.
Playground & picnic:
Let kids run off energy at the play area near the café and relax at covered picnic tables.
Tip: Pack a picnic or reserve the BBQ area in advance to avoid queues.

Our visit to Koala Park Sanctuary in Sydney was an unforgettable wildlife experience that offered a unique and up-close encounter with some of Australia’s most iconic native animals. Nestled in a peaceful, leafy setting just a short drive from Sydney city, the sanctuary provides a natural and family-friendly environment where animals are lovingly cared for and guests are warmly welcomed. The Koal...

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. T...

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 amaz...

What a super little Animal Park. We visited early on a public holiday and the park was very quiet. It a an exceptionally clean, well organised establishment with keepers regularly in evidence. The are many trees and much general greenery that give an air of the countryside, unlike a conventional zoo. There are plenty of marsupials to see, as well as dingoes and many varieties of birds and Squamata...

I had wonderful experienced for two hours,and luckily I bump into 2pm koala presentation,and got chance to take photos with koalas in close distance. Every feeding area has affectionate animals (yes I’m talking about the baby goat chewing my jacket in a nice way) And huge thanks for staff Allen! He showed me around and explained very nicely about the zoo, he really brightened my day!
In summer, visit right at 9 am to beat the heat. In winter, pack a light jacket for cool mornings.
