4.5Monarto Safari Park(547 reviews) - Roartastic Day Wednesday: 9:00 AM - 4:30 PM Spent More than 3 hours Zoos
Monarto Safari Park, formerly known as Monarto Zoo, will be the largest safari experience to exist outside of Africa. Spanning more than 1,500 hectares and home to more than 50 species of exotic and native mammals, birds and reptiles, you can actually fit every major zoo in Australia in Monarto Safari Park and still have land left over! Monarto Safari Park is home to many of Africa’s most impressive animals and also one of Australia’s largest lion prides and giraffe herds. The park is located 60 minutes (70 kilometres) from South Australia’s capital city Adelaide and is the gateway to the picturesque Murraylands region. Monarto Safari Park opened in 1983 as a breeding and pasture area. Since officially opening to the public in October 1993, the park is now home to more than 500 animals roaming in vistas as far as the eye can see. It’s an escape from the city that immerses visitors in a natural safari-style setting.See more..
4.5Kangaroo Island Wildlife Park(538 reviews) - Lovely Park with awesome animal encounters Wednesday: 9:30 AM - 5:00 PM Spent 1-2 hours Zoos
The Kangaroo Island Wildlife Park is a fun day out for all ages! Hand feed kangaroos, touch and hold koalas, see Penguins play, slither in and see our reptiles and get up close with many of our beautiful Australia native animals. Take a stroll at your own pace, join our guided tour or come along to our interactive animal displays. Stay for morning tea or lunch and enjoy our lovely cafe and coffee. The park has new owners since late 2013, so if you have visited before then be sure to come back and see all our changes.See more..
A lovely quiet place to walk around, unwind and feed some of our native animals. The perfect spot to stop, pat and have a photo with one of several beautiful koalas. This is something that never gets boring! From the baby guinea pig to a salt water croc this park gives eveyone the opportunity to enjoy many of Australia's native wildlife, with perfect scenery for photos. They also offer a great range of souvenirs, at a cost for every budget, from pens, keyrings and magnets, to hats, t-shirts and indigenous artworks. Something for everyone and items small enough to post. One adult and a bag of animal food was $15, seniors( with card) was $10. You can spend 1 hour or 5. It's well worth the time and money.See more..
Rosemary was an excellent guide. She really knew her stuff and she made sure we got to see several penguins, and even let the tour run over so we could see some. This is a great tour for a great price. You do need to make sure you can walk on uneven ground though.See more..
4.5Adelaide Monarto Zoo(53 reviews) - This place is HUGE!!!! Spent More than 3 hours Zoos
I recently visited Monarto, while staying in Adelaide. An easy and cheap bus ride from the city ($20 and one hour), Monarto is an Open range Zoo, that is just massive. A bus drives you around the Zoo, and you can do many laps around, as a bus departs every 30 minutes. Make sure you do the Lions 360 special event, you won’t be disappointed...you get really close. And walk you to the Chimps, who are very close to the Function Centre, and are very entertaining. I loved Monarto.See more..
