We went straight to the zoo after getting off the plane. We arrived quite late, but we were lucky enough to see most of the animals, including wombats, Tasmanian devils, and smiling rats. A great zoo, highly recommended.
The coffee at the entrance was delicious, and feeding the parrots was also very interesting. Feeding starts at 4 PM, and even when we left at 5 PM, there were still parrots to feed.

Such a beautiful place to visit. If you’re in the area give yourself at least a half day to be able to take your time and wander around and enjoy the cafe views and the events at the dome. Truly magical.
