Animals roaming free and fantastic customer service

เม.ย. ค.ศ. 2022 • คู่รัก

We were advised to go to this location as you are up close and personal with the animals by our hotel receptionist. It is a bit of a trek from the Adelaide and had to go by taxi.
The experience was very positive and for a very small cost you could hold a koala, so for us from the UK, this would be a highlight for my wife and me. as we have never seen a koala in real life, I am in my 60’s and you are never too old for this!
The holding session I was a bit concerned how this was going to be done and not stress the poor koala.
The young lady was was very particular how you held and treated the koala, which as she said, if it’s eating it’s happy, but any signs of stress, the koala would immediately be put back. A beautiful animal well cared for.
It takes a year to train them and they had taken in koalas from the big fire.
These are much bigger animals than I imagined, and made it a very special day.
You could also walk among and feed the kangaroos, lazing around the enclosure.
We also saw, many indigenous animals we had never seen before, including Wombats.
The shop was VERY reasonable priced and we purchased several toys for the grandchildren back home.
We spoke to the owner and it has been family run since 1965.
Then we find our pick up taxi is stuck miles away, so need to rebook. No answer on the phone, so the lady called a taxi for us. 50 mins past and that didn’t turn up, but they helped get us back to a main bus stop.
Try that at the big zoos!
Places like this need our support, or they will be no places to interact and understand wild animals, and these places are more than looking at it as “caged” animals, it helps with they future and understanding. Many species will disappear over the next decade, we (humanity) has to stop this and that won’t be easy.

Mooi park / dierentuin

เม.ย. ค.ศ. 2022 • คู่รัก

Het is mooi gelegen in de bossen. Je kunt er veel Australische dieren zien. Die je niet vind in Europese dierentuinen. Het is jammer dat sommige dieren , zoals de grote roofvogels en de vliegende vossen in te kleine kooien zitten waardoor ze niet instaat zijn om te vliegen. Toch is het een leuk en mooi park. En we hebben genoten van de voor ons exotische dieren.

Sad experience

ม.ค. ค.ศ. 2022 • เดินทางคนเดียว

I used to come here a lot with my family as a kid and really loved it. I was excited to visit again the other day as an adult but left feeling really off about the experience. :/
The free roaming peacocks, water birds and wallabies are lovely. I adore the parrots who by choice hang out amongst the trees and some of the open areas. But for so many other animals the cages are small, and so many of them seem bored and sad; I still can’t shake the heartache of seeing a little lone corella caged in the petting zoo area saying “hello” and “knock knock” repetitively (though evidently not repetitively enough for the awful child banging its cage and yelling “knock knock” back at it, whose mother allowed this to happen for far too long, ugh). Witnessing this felt especially cruel given the family of corellas I saw living happy and free in a tree only minutes before.
Therefore, I do agree with some other reviewers that Gorge feels more like a zoo than a wildlife park. I note on some older reviews circa 2016 that Gorge did respond saying they were updating enclosures but there were still a heap now in 2022 that from memory haven’t changed or expanded much; from memory, the tamarins’ cages are the same as they were back in the early 2000s. The staff I interacted with were nice, and I don’t doubt for a moment that they care about the animals. I just really hope that if the park can’t provide bigger, more adept and enriching facilities for the animals very soon - particularly the exotic ones - that they admit it’s time to let them go somewhere that can.

Get up close it is a park not a zoo

ต.ค. ค.ศ. 2021

Less than an hour from Adelaide CBD it is a different world, much more relaxed than a zoo, as it name suggests a park.
Being an older Aussie it was strange holding a Koala for the first time as part of the Lemur experience.
Recommendation: Go early and buy a $2.50 bag of food on your way in when the animals are super friendly and you get to see the wild lorikeets being fed. Also make sure you see the Bilby and walk through aviaries.

Enjoying Australia's wildlife.

เม.ย. ค.ศ. 2021 • ครอบครัว

The Gorge Wildlife Park, is situated 30km northeast of Adelaide. Situated on 14 acres of land, which makes the park, one of the largest "privately owned", assembly of Australian and exotic animals, birds and reptiles, from Australia and overseas.
You are able to book your tickets online; Adults $19.00, Students $16.00, Concession $16.00, children ( aged 3-15) $12.00. Families ( 2 adults / 2 children ) $54.00.

The park was first opened in 1965, opened from 9 am to 5 pm, but is not open on "high fire risk days"; also is not open if the daily temperature is below 14 degrees Celsius or 34 degrees Celsius.

Public can have private encounters with koalas, which last for 15 minutes and costs $30.00. The public can also hold a koala, for 2 minutes which will cost $10.00.
The paths meander among shaded trees and the animals. You are able to get up close to the animals, you are able to feed them. You are able to purchase food for the animals from the kiosk.
The parks food and drinks are of good quality and well priced.

The park caters for visitors who would like a picnic or barbecue; there are areas set aside for these activities.
Unfortunately the encounter areas are not wheelchair or walker friendly, because the ground is uneven. To walk among the animals the area is wheel chair accessible.

The park provides "educational programs". You could spend the whole day there and still not see all the animals.
The park has a wide range of animals, which include: kangaroos, Tasmanian devils, wombats, dingos, echidnas. You are able to walk among the kangaroos and wallabies and feed them.

Other animals you will see are; meerkats, otters, playful monkeys, camels. There is an iguana; they also have a reptile area ( containing Boa constrictors, a carpet python). There are also American alligators. There are still more animals to spot.

Hyggelig dyrepark

ก.พ. ค.ศ. 2020 • ครอบครัว

Besøgte venner i Adelaide, som tog os med til denne dyrepark. Vi vidste ingenting om den og blev positiv overrasket. Der var albino kænguruer og almindelige kænguruer, som gerne kom helt hen og spiste af din hånd. Mange spændende dyr og hovedattraktionen var, at man kunne holde en koala! Fantastisk!

Up close with the animals.

มี.ค. ค.ศ. 2020 • เพื่อนๆ

Amazing end to our holiday in Australia. Spent a lovely afternoon here, only $19 entrance fee and $10 to cuddle a koala. You can purchase bags of food and feed the kanagroos. Staff were very friendly and are happy to answer any question that we asked about the animals. Perfect day.

Excellent facility for viewing animals close-up and interacting

มี.ค. ค.ศ. 2020 • เพื่อนๆ

I spent my last day on holiday in Adelaide here and it was the icing on the cake! We got there at 10.30 and left at 5pm. We took over 1000 photos and videos. Lunch was very well priced and vegetarian options too.
We had the holding the Koala session at 10.30 and I was very impressed with how well the keepers supervised the Koalas making sure they were not stressed at all. We got lovely photos and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The variety of animals was good with animals from all over the world as well as native Australians. The reptile house was well done with spacious exhibits. Overall it was a very enjoyable experience.

I don't think there is a playground within the park but there is one nearby. Thanks for reading.

Hi, We are travelling to Adelaide this week and are on a tight schedule!How long is the general wait time for the koala cuddle experience?I understand when it is very hot there is only one session per day, is this something you update online in a morning so we would know in advance if there is only one session that day? Many Thanks Rebecca

แอดิเลด, ออสเตรเลีย

Hi Rebecca, When the forecasted temperature for Adelaide is 34 degrees or above we only hold the 11.30 am koala holding session. It really depends on how busy the day is as to how long the wait times will be. I would suggest lining up maybe 15 minutes before the holding time and hopefully you would then be near the front of the queue. If you have any further queries please do not hesitate to contact us. Kind Regards Sandra

Una domanda qualcuno conosce la differenza tra questo parco e il Cleland wildlife park?qual è il migliore? One question anyone knows the difference between this park and the Cleland wildlife park - what is the best?

แอดิเลด, ออสเตรเลีย

Hi, There are a number of differences between us and Cleland Wildlife Park. Cleland Wildlife Park purely has native animals and birds whereas we have native and exotic animals and birds. Cleland is very large and we are more compact and you don't have to walk long distances to see all the animals. We offer free koala holding sessions every day at 11.30 am, 1.30 and 3.30 pm unless the temperature for Adelaide is 34 degrees or above then we only hold the 11.30 am session. I think both our parks are good but quite different to each other. If you have any further queries please do not hesitate to contact me. Kind Regards Sandra Gorge Wildlife Park
