Summary:
I stayed a lot longer than I expected - so many animals to see! Really relaxing environment despite being busy. I enjoyed the free raptor show and had some great animal encounters with informative guides. I found the layout a bit confusing but possibly could have made better use of the interactive map. A worthwhile experience.

Summary:
This is the highlight of my trip to Brisbane. We took a river cruise to the sanctuary. The boat ride was approximately one and a half hours. The sanctuary is interactive. Many options to see koalas, kangaroos,emus, wombats, wallaby, Tasmanian devils and many more. There is an option to feed the kangaroos. I absolutely recommend you do it.
