    Best zoo I've ever been to and I've been to zoos from all across Europe and the wider world. I went on valentine's Day with my partner. This zoo has a massive variety of animals and the enclosures are large and well maintained. We were in the zoo for 4.5 hours and only saw half the animals - luckily we purchased memberships and will be visiting again next week to see the rest. The keepers are friendly and knowledgeable and always happy to answer questions. For us, the butterfly house was the highlight and was truly breathtaking. Cannot recommend highly enough, especially if you really care about the welfare of animals and love being able to see a large variety.

    Pretty good, designated and well organized layout inside. Visitors can easily find the way to see all kinds of animals. Since it is semi-open space, you can feel the natural and primitive atmosphere by searching those animals. Too be honest, it is not easy to see lots of animals in close distance. Kids are so happy to take a look at those creatures. A good opportunity to teach and interact with kids in zoo. You can spend half day inside to explore what you want. However, sometimes some animals may hide, sleep or go anywhere so that they are not available when you visit. For me and kids, it is a wonderful experience to visit this historical zoo. Easy to take Trams or Metro trains here. Enjoy.

    Great experience at the zoo. The zoo is immaculately clean. The layout just makes sense. Heaps of parking even on new years day. Never felt too crowded. Highlight was spotting the red pandas (remember to look up into the trees!)

    This zoo is great. There's so many animals you probably won't see them all in one day. Most areas have a covered section so a bit of rain shouldn't stop you. I would encourage you to bring your own food though as the cafes are quite inconsistent in their operating hours plus they're mostly not located around places where you have animal views. Check out the free keeper talk times on their website before your visit for added value. Parents room are decent. Locker storage available - need credit card, between $5-$10 for the first 4 hours depending on size. Wheelchairs can be booked for free, need 48 hours notice. Parking is $2 for 5 hours, so it works out cheaper than public transport for most.

    Great place. You can find gorillas, giraffes, Kangaroos, Tiger, 🦁, Elephants. They are preserving a lot of soon to be extinct species. This is the 1st carbon neutral zoo in the entire world. Well maintained and observed regularly by volunteers, workers. They are taking good care of the animals inside. The gorilla 🦍 rainforest was really very amazing then comes the kangaroo island. And yea the sea penguins 🐧 were also nice.

    The memorial statue of the founder of the State Library of Victoria, Sir Redmond holds centre stage and in a prominent position in the middle of the entrance steps of the forecourt and front lawns area. Barry founded some of Melbourne's most famous public institutions, including the University of Melbourne and Royal Melbourne Hospital. The statue of Barry, measuring 2.97 metres tall and having a plinth at 2.58 metres, was installed in front of the State Library of Victoria in 1887. He was a prominent Melbournian who briefly held the position of the first solicitor-general of Victoria before being elevated to the new bench of the Supreme Court of Victoria. He died in November 1880.

    Melbourne Zoo is a great place to visit, whether you're 8 years old or 80 years old. There's just so many animals to see that it'll probably take you a good 3 or 4 hours to see everything. The Zoo is very well designed to ensure that you get to see everything.My favourite was the open exhibit for the Lemurs, they are just drop dead gorgeous 😍even my teenage son had a great time at the Zoo. Easily accessible via Tram 58 from the city on William St.

    Visited Melbourne Zoo with my family today and had an incredible experience! The fact that entrance fees for kids are waived on weekends is a fantastic perk. The diverse range of animals and well-maintained exhibits made it both educational and enjoyable for everyone. The staff's passion for conservation shines through, and the interactive activities added an extra layer of fun. A perfect family outing surrounded by the beauty of wildlife. Highly recommend!

    This zoo is amazing! So much to see, it’s huge. We didn’t get to see it all as got too tired, so look forward to visiting again to see the rest. Highlights were lemur island and the whole monkey area, the butterfly enclosure with so many beautiful butterflies, and the elephants - they were in their cage area when we visited which was really interesting, we got to see the keepers checking them over and the elephants responding to their hand signals. Amazing stuff! Good value too as kids are free on the weekend. We pre booked tickets so there was no line to get in which was great!

    Fantastic day at the zoo. Place has really improved from when i was a kid. Young fella loved it. Heaps of shady areas to put down a rug and have a picnic. Food and drink is also available. We ordered the hamper for 2, must be done at lease 3 days prior to your visit to the zoo. Heaps of places to get an ice cream as well.

    Friendly kid friendly zoo with a great variety of animals. These include tigers, lions, elephants, snow leopards, cassowary and of course western lowland gorillas Plenty of cafes and kiosks scattered throughout the trails. There are also multiple water misters to cool yourself down during a warm summer day. Melbourne Zoo promotes eco sustainability and strives for zero waste. Make sure you bring your own water bottles and straws.

    Fantastic zoo! Went here on a Tuesday and there was a fair bit of a crowd, but there was no wait to enter at all. Bought tickets on-site, staff were friendly and welcoming. Large variety of animals that look well cared for. Only issue was that some animals were moved to different enclosures, so we could not see them. However, we had to amazing opportunity to see the wombat while it was awake, so that made up for everything. Food at the cafes were filling and tasted great, would recommend for families and animal enthusiasts to come here 👍

    Melbourne Zoo is a fantastic place to visit, full of amazing animals and fun things to do! You can easily get there from the city center by tram, and you can buy your tickets when you arrive. The zoo is not just about seeing animals – it's also about learning how to protect them and their habitats. They have lots of places where you can fill up your water bottle for free, which is really handy. Overall, Melbourne Zoo is a great day out for anyone who loves animals and nature! Its my Top 1 ZOO on the World 😊

    We visited the zoo on February and now I can write the review. It is the biggest zoo I have ever seen in the past. My kids enjoyed exploring the animals and birds. They were exited and happy. I advise you to visit and enjoy your trip with lots of animals. However, I noticed that only one kangaroo appear at that time and our porpoise was to see them. Hope we visit this zoo again.

    Best place to learn and see different kinds of animals. the highlight for me was the lion, leopards, elephants, giraffes and tiger. its a big place so prepare 4-5 hours if your planing to see everything. membership passes are also available if you want to come back and cafes are located in different areas to energize you.

    Excellent adventure…! I really enjoyed the beautiful environment and scenery! It’s a great experience to see the Australian animals. It’s better to book the ticket in advance. The price is affordable. You can either bring your lunch or buy it from several cafes in there. It takes almost a full day to visit all parts of the zoo. Highly recommended in school holidays…

    Excellent experience with so much to explore within the zoo. It gets very busy quite quickly so be sure to arrive early. The zoo keepers were very informative and there was so much to see. Great for children with so many enclosures to see and a children's playground at one side of the zoo too. Definitely an experience to do when visiting Melbourne.

You will definitely need a whole day here - there is so much to see and do and I highly recommend seeing any of the zoo keeper demonstrations. Only thing that I didn’t like were the prices at the cafe but if you bring your own food you can avoid it! Recommmend buying a membership as we have and can’t wait to come back again!

  • 5/5 Julide E. 3 months ago on Google • 86 reviews New
    Visited Melbourne Zoo from 11 am to 4 pm. Affordable parking at $2 for 5 hours. Explored the park twice, taking about 2.5 hours each round—perfect for a 10k step day! Loved baboons, elephants, and seals, though lions were napping. Friendly staff readily available for assistance. Ample parking, but bring your own food for dietary needs due to a small cafe with limited options during off-peak hours. Despite that, it's a fantastic tourist attraction. Solo visit, but planning to return with family. Thank you, Melbourne Zoo, for a delightful day! Highly recommended for a memorable outing with a good mix of wildlife and friendly atmosphere.

  • 5/5 Vertucci C. 3 years ago on Google
    Great staff very friendly and helpful. Walkways were clean and well kept. Great food and slushies. Really love the variety of animals plenty of wildlife to see. The views they have of the animals are breathtaking,very photography friendly. Restrooms are not to far from each other wich is convenient. Hand wash stations for the kids and adults threw out the park to slow the spread . The staff kept safe by properly wearing there face mask and social distancing. Over all a great place for whole family or just a date day to get out of the house and help treat cabin fever. Definitely a five star place 😁.

    Always wonderful to visit. Love the different areas to visit and learn about animals, animals on endangered lists, conservation and lots of information on how you can help. Almost all of the Zoo is accessible to all abilities! Lots of restrooms and shady eating areas.

  • 5/5 Taylar W. 4 years ago on Google
    As part of my first tine trip to Melbourne, I was super excited to visit Melbourne, albeit in a rush due to a delayed flight. The zoo staff was very friendly and offered to defer my ticket to the next however I was focused on visiting particular animals. The zoological park is beautifully layer out with impressive areas grouping the animals. The enclosures were very striking and spacious too and I fully appreciate the conservation efforts and education visibly endorsed by the park. My favourite animals to view were the elephants, gorillas and the giraffe. Unfortunately, I missed out on the orangutan due to the time as well as the tiger however their enclosures were lovely. I’d love to visit again with more tune, however my first visit was great! Highly recommended with distinction!

  • 4/5 Wild Hog R. 3 years ago on Google
    Wild Hog: Was disappointed that Tim Allen and John Travolta were off display, however the Wild Hogs (or Peccaries) that I saw were in good spirits trotting about happily. A pleasantly surprising show with hours of entertainment for the whole family. Watch out for these talented young performers! ★★★★☆

    Cleveland Metroparks Zoo, is a beautiful zoo just outside of downtown Cleveland. Great conservation efforts and a phenomenal atmosphere. We visited for the zoo lights this year. Clearly a beautiful display. If you have the opportunity to visit or donate to the zoo. Do it. Definitely worth your time.

    Fabulous zoo! Fun for the kids, fun for my mum, and fun for the whole family. The only bad thing about Melbourne zoo is the maintenance, but on other hand, they do take very good care of the animals. They just need to keep the smell fresher in the eating areas.

    Our Roar and Snore sleepover at Melbourne Zoo was absolutely amazing. Pete and Amy, our camp hosts, were a lot of fun and really knowledgeable about everything going on at the zoo. Dinner was a tasty affair, before we went on a night hike to observe the nocturnal species. In the morning we had the opportunity to feed the giraffes, however the giraffes decided not to come over. It was great seeing how respectful the keepers were of the giraffes' right to choose their interactions. It was really interesting going behind the scenes, and learning about the animals and all the incredible conservation work done by the zoo.

    Best place to spend the day in Melbourne and I recommend you set aside the whole day to navigate the exhibits laid out in an easy to manage loop. Comfortable walking shoes are a must and the walkways are wheelchair accessible. Apart from viewing the numerous animals there are many resting spoils and a choice of eating venues. Parking at the zoo is very reasonably priced at $2 for 5 hours. A number of clean toilets are available on site. Don't forget the camera

    We visited on a Monday so it wasn't crowded; although the drawback was that there were less food stalls open. Overall the zoo was extremely lovely and the staff were so friendly and helpful. The zoo itself was also gorgeous and clean. Favorites were the lemurs and butterfly exhibits!

    ROAR AND SNORE - what a fantastic experience hubby and myself had. We purchased this as a Christmas present to each other. Our hosts/keepers were Clara and Robin and we were so lucky to have them looking after us. Nothing was too much trouble and they were informative and had a great personality the pair of them with lots of laughs. It was a privilege to be in the zoo when it was closed to see the animals without the crowds. The night tour and morning tour will be something we will remember for a long time to come. The camp site was comfortable and the food supplied was great. Highly recommend.

    Great place for kids. Always a pleasure to visit and see the animals. The zoo is maintained very well. Long weekends are usual very busy and it is better to arrive early to avoid long queues. The cafes offer limited variety of food and prices are moderate to high. Watch out for events and keeper's talks - these are generally very good.

  • 4/5 Tiger R. 3 years ago on Google
    Sumatran Tiger: Very nice stripes and colour arrangement, slow service but attentive to the quality of its product. This magnificent cat requires a certain amount of imagination to fully appreciate, as tigers are not boastful and rarely demonstrate their full prowess when hunting minced chicken. ★★★★☆

    One of the better zoo's I've been to. Make sure to get here early. It will take you the whole day to see all the attractions. Pack you lunch and some drinks as well. Lots of places to sit down and eat. Also make sure each attraction is open.We missed so many.

    I NEVER WRITE REVIEWS!!!!!! Today was alomst in tears as I lost my job the morning and my 2 two boys were driving me crazy one of your staff members I believe her name was Brittany with long brown hair she had a calming yet caring and positive attitude she turned my whole day around I was on the verge of having a break down when she stepped in and asked if I was ok and spent the time talking to me and occupying my children so I could pull myself together I’m so glad she did I’m so thankful for her kind words and helping hand today.

    We love Melbourne Zoo. We've had annual membership for 4 years now. It is really easy to get around, the layout is very good, making it easy to just do certain areas if needed. There are lots of rest areas and toilets, along with 4 areas for food and drinks. One large play area and then lots of small things along the way to keep the kids engaged. Ok parking, $2 for 5 hours but can be hard to find a spot on the weekends. Train station and tram stop there too making it really accessible!

    Had the most amazing day at Melbourne zoo! The animals are enjoying the sunshine and being super cute! It's so nice to see how much space the animals have to explore and play! A fantastic place to take the family or kids. I would however recommend bringing your own lunch as the food isn't the greatest but other than that it was truly amazing!

    Such a beautiful place. Good to take the kids... the animals all seem happy and healthy. Their enclosures are well kept and I love the diversity (reptiles, sea life, land animals). There is so much to see and do here. You can become a member, which gives you access to other zoos as well, which is really handy or you can get general admission which isn't expensive.

    At first, I thought AU$46 (adult) was a little bit pricy, but it was so worth it. I had a great time here to watch various animals and was very glad to see their good living environment compared to other zoos. They had 'Koala talk' at 11AM, and I was happy to be there.

    Having visited zoo in Europe, I am not particularly impressed. For the price of ticket paid, we finished the zoo tour in 3 hours. But I liked snow leopard and seal attraction. Very very few birds and aquatic life, very few rain forest animals, etc. I would not visit again unless there is a big upgrade!

  • 3/5 Rynhium 1 month ago on Google • 33 reviews New
    We went on a hot Monday, and we saw some animals like the lemur, giraffes, and the elephants, but I’m disappointed by the koala and the predators. It was so hot that they didn’t come out, and for an entire section we saw NONE of the animals at all, therefore, the tickets seemed a bit overpriced. If we came on a cooler day, I might reconsider coming back.

  • 5/5 Paul C. 4 years ago on Google
    One of the best zoos on the planet. Go Melbourne...Easily accessible for travellers from all over Australia. Definitely a spectacle for people. Affordable ticket prices. Get to see most of the beautiful animals you can think of. Customer friendly staff to help you through the zoo.

    A zoo with such variety, and appreciation to the wilderness. This zoo persistently demonstrates a realistic environment, that entertains people of all ages. I have liked the animals that have been shown here, and how they have a decent freedom in their enclosures. I have found the botanical organisms as interesting as the animals themselves. The percentage of 'green' in this zoo should be more noticed by people, as it creates this unique vibe, being that it is a zoo in Australia, one of the most dryest countries in the world. I have experienced such an amazing time in this zoo, and have always come across something new, every time I visited.

    As a well respected business man, and a reviewer of many zoos and other animal related facilities, I am very happy to recommend this zoo to anyone in the general Melbourne area. The animals here are absolutely wonderful and are able to do the most amazing things. On my visit to this zoo I witnessed a meerkat in a blue jacket playing the keytar. It was absolutely amazing

    (Translated by Google) Accessibility is good and you can get cheaper than the list price by purchasing a ticket with the Trip.com app or presenting your student ID at the ticket office. I was expecting a koala and a kangaroo, but the animals I can see are similar to Korea, but the zoo is huge. (Original) 접근성이 좋고 트립닷컴 어플로 티켓을 구매하거나 매표소에서 학생증을 제시하면 정가보다 싸게 들어갈 수 있음. 코알라랑 캥거루를 기대하고 갔는데 막상 볼 수 있는 동물들은 한국과 비슷한듯 그래도 동물원은 어마무시하게 넓음

    It's very good and has wide variety of animals. It will take around 3 hours to go one complete round. There are Lions, tigers, snow leopard, reptiles, butterfly park, birds, seals, penguins etc. You need to walk a little bit as the zoo covers a big area. Parking near the rear gate is 2$ for 5 hours. Must go for children.

    Incredibly disappointed right now. We are members and generally love going to the zoo. We booked online a week ago, as it says on the website that bookings are essential, only to get there for our day session time to find there is 0 parking left, and a line that stretches around the zoo for people buying tickets on the day. Even if we could get parking, I would be incredibly uncomfortable taking my family as it is so incredibly crowded. So much for limiting capacity in the face of the covid pandemic.

    Stunning place to lose yourself after a hard day at work, to meet with friends for a picnic, to exercise around the many paths, to cycle amongst the many tracks, to spot the incredible array of Australian wildlife or to literally get lost and have your own adventure finding which car park your car was on like I did. This one such a beautiful place and must continue to be protected and admired.

    In winter and covid-19, it's is just a rip-off to visit that place. Not a good time to visit right now, half of the animals and the exhibits are missing or closed. It's open right now for short period of time and short duration and less days in the week but they should let people visit for free since they don't have much to show in the zoo. Be ready for a big disappointment if you visit right now.

    If you’re coming by train/tram, you’ll easily find the zoo entrance from the back. But if you park your car somewhere in between the two entrances, you’ll get a bit lost and confused as there’s no visible signages pointing for entry (both the back entrance and main entrance) and you ended up squabbling with your friend as to which entryway you supposed to meet up. Also the queues can be really long at the back entrance because that’s where people mostly come from (public transport and parking spaces). Meanwhile, the main entrance (front) is not as busy and smooth sailing. (Insert zoo related comments) I love elephants 🐘

    Some people don't realize that the San Diego Zoo Global is a non-profit that supports the SD Zoo, SD Safari park, projects all over the world, not to mention supporting the survival of many species that man's need for more space is wiping out. The folks at both parks are dedicated to supporting the survival of these species and educating people with having these amazing places for the animals and to help people understand. Some use the animals for their viewing pleasure, some for highly needed education, some for both. The hope is that it is both. Also, many people don't realize that the Sd Zoo Global has not one, but two, "frozen zoos" in place should a species be wiped out, they have created hope that they are not gone forever. So, when you complain that it is "overpriced", think about these things. They needs these funds to help species that are being wiped out (largely by us) around the world survive.

    Such a beautiful zoo!!! Huge enclosures and epically knowledgeable staff. The free roaming lemur enclosure is amazing, and the butterfly house is gorgeous too!!! Definitely worth a visit. Tasty food. Amazing hospitality and super, super friendly people! Even the gift shop staff were welcoming and exceptionally friendly.

    Must See for everyone who Loves animals, the walks are beautiful and the fresh breeze amazing. Fewer Animals than expected and the Lion seemed very depressed. Tigers and the Elephants are a Must See.

    It’s a great zoo to visit: a good variety of animals to admire in well organised environments to suit their needs. There are relaxing areas and places where you can stop for food, drinks, and coffee. There also is a playground area for the kids! Staff is lovely and the parking ticket suits everyone ($2 x 5 hours)

    We enjoyed our visit to the zoo. We can spend a whole day and it's better to start early, before 10am. We took the train from cbd to Royal Park station to in Upfield line. Zoo rail entrance is very close to the railway station. Most of the exhibits were available and I loved to see lion, tiger and giraffe. It was like walking through a fenced forest, and they didn't do any cruel animal shows which was good. I've been to some zoo where they do elephant shows and elephants have to play along to get food. Lunch at lakeside cafe was okay. Overall a good experience. Thanks.

    Melbourne Zoo has definitely improved it's facilities and some new animals to watch. A very good excursion for kids to enjoy and learn. Butterfly house is still an attraction and is very enchanting to watch. Nice picnic spots and few cafes around with good sitting arrangements make it worth a visit.

    I love the zoo. Really enjoy observing the animals. Was disappointing on this day that no loins on display which is usually one of the marquee displays. I just think that they need to make it a must see. You don’t think Melbourne Zoo when you are a visitor. Whether they go the Arctic route with polar bears, grizzly bears and fox etc? Just need head turning at every corner to really stand out. Also some more water refill stations around the place please. Please note that kids go in free on weekends and school holidays. So get there and support your favourite animals

    Melbourne Zoo is one of the best zoos in the world. It is home to over 3,000 animals from all over the globe, and it is committed to animal welfare and conservation. The zoo is located in Royal Park, which is a beautiful park in the heart of Melbourne. The zoo is easy to get to. The zoo offers a number of animal encounters that allow visitors to get up close and personal with some of the zoo's residents. This is a great way to learn more about the animals and see them up close.

    We had a great time. We stayed at the zoo for 4hours. In that 4hrs we still didn’t get around to seeing the whole zoo lol that could be because I had two little ones. Can be a lot of walking for them. Would definitely suggest taking one of the trailers (prams). The location is beautiful and is a great place for the kids to run around and tire themselves out. I love the playground spaces and lunch areas. I do wish there was more hot foods there though. There was only one stand open while we were there and it was to busy. I’d definitely pack a bigger lunch to stay longer next time. Last thing I’d suggest buying a year pass as it’s pretty much the same cost as a one day entry.

    A great experience with lots of native and non-native animals, for visitors and locals alike. Much improved in recent years. You’ll need 3-4 hrs to get around the whole zoo. Avoid weekends if you don’t want to be inundated with too many children and strollers.

    Strikes a very good balance between conservation and entertainment. The zoo is within walking distance of the CBD, and it's an enjoyable walk through the suburbs. It's also well served via the tram network. Very friendly staff and well laid out with a tremendous amount to see. It's a great day out for old and young, with plenty of toilets and places to eat and drink. I visited out of season and on a weekday (Monday, July), so it was busy, but far from crowded). Modern zoos have a difficult tightrope to balance between entertainment and conservation and Melbourne's Zoo does this well. It's great to see animals being well cared for and mostly happy in their confinement, including a couple of baby elephants. The large aviaries are excellent to walk through, yet no so spacious that you end up having to play hunt-the-animal in the enclosures. No zoo will ever be perfect, but this one must be high up on the list of good ones, and ones doing their best to make a difference in terms of education and values in conservation. The butterfly house is a must visit - tranquil, fragile beauty abounds.

    Great experience, kids loved it. Everything comes off a main street so it's easy to navigate. Mornings are better so the cats are slightly more active. There is a clever orangutan who sits with a blanket on him. Cafes are decent.

    Melbourne zoo is a wonderful place to visit whether you are a tourist, a local, or a family. They have fun interactive experiences as well as active animals that interact with you. They have good facilities such as cafes, a Ben and Jerry’s ice cream shop, good toilets, outdoor air conditioning, and more. Its is one of the best zoos I have been to, but if you want an even more interactive experience, you should go to Werribee open range zoo.

    We had a beautiful time in Melbourne zoo. They have a lot of different type animals and I was surprised how big is the zoo. The best thing of the zoo is that you can watch the animals really close. Definitely a good plan for a family or any person to visit :)

    . Melbourne Zoo offers a fantastic family experience with diverse wildlife. Plan your visit ahead to make the most of your time exploring the captivating exhibits and engaging activities. The well-maintained enclosures provide an immersive environment for various species, ensuring an educational and enjoyable outing for visitors of all ages. Don't miss the interactive shows and feeding sessions for a more enriching experience. Remember to check the schedule to maximize your time and create lasting memories with your family at Melbourne Zoo.

    I visited the zoo on a Monday and it was very spacious. Although most of the animals were hidden, even tho the temperature was below 25°C and there weren’t any spiders and not that many animals to see. The tickets were also very expensive and having visited the zoo in Prague I was very disappointed. Also barely saw the kangaroo, but the big animals like elephants, gorillas or giraffes were great. Butterfly house was amazing too!

    Melbourne Zoo's enchanting atmosphere extends to its giraffe exhibit, featuring the graceful and towering giraffes, including Zaraf. The opportunity to observe these majestic creatures up close adds an extra layer of wonder to the overall zoo experience. The zoo's commitment to conservation is evident in its efforts to protect and educate about species like giraffes, making it a must-visit for wildlife enthusiasts.

    I take students from my camera class to Melbourne Zoo every two weeks and they always come back with amazing photos. The animals are in great viewing areas without looking trapped. The butterfly house is a great experience. I suggest getting Zoo membership if you plan repeat visits as well as other benefits.

  • 5/5 Natacha C. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Leigh O. 3 years ago on Google
    This is one of the best zoos in the world. From the amazing reptile house that I can spend hours walking through, to the world class butterfly house which is just so beautiful it has to be experienced to really understand. The lions have an elevated viewing walkway which again provides a first class look into the lives of the lions. I could go in & on, but you get the idea. I loved the Melbourne Zoo as a child & I still really like to go & understand how truly lucky we are to have such a one of a kind place here in our city. Highly recommended.

  • 3/5 Andrew S. 3 years ago on Google
    The Melbourne Zoo is a bit of a mix bag. The main reason to come here is if you have children or live local and want a zoo experience. Tourists from overseas may like the idea of seeing Australian animals in a somewhat convenient location but there are much better experiences elsewhere (such as Healesville sanctuary or one of the wildlife parks further away from central Melbourne). I would not recommend this place as a regular "day trip", not because the experience is particularly bad (I would say its okay) but the pricing of tickets is very high.

  • 5/5 Janelle T. 3 years ago on Google
    Melbourne Zoo never disappoints. My boys love the Dinosaur attractions each year and we're very grateful for the carers discount the zoo offers. It never feels over crowded. The orangutan exhibit is the best! You can get so close to them! (The only improvement could be the food).

    (Translated by Google) The last time we went on a family trip, we had a great time at the zoo. I haven't been to the zoo since I was a kid, and the situation here has improved a lot. The wall of the zoo is very spacious, and we are very happy to see the animals living in a more relaxed environment. The children also like it very much. When we ask them where they want to go today, they will say "zoo", just like we asked for some reason. (Original) 上一次家庭出游,我们在动物园玩的很愉快。我从孩提时代起就没再来过动物园,这里的情况也有了很大的改善。动物馆的围墙建得很宽敞,看到动物们生活在一个更宽松的环境中,我们也很开心。孩子们也很喜欢这里,每当我们问他们今天想去哪里玩,他们就会说“动物园”,就像我们在明知故问一样。

    In a word " disappointed " we did the the 4pm till 8pm, only to find most exhibits closed for "new and exciting coming soon" or no animals out in the enclosure. Not enough information about the animal and way to much in your face, about cause of the demise off their natural habitat. And due to the covid restrictions all enclosed inclosures where shut to the public. So not worth going.

    Finally visited the Melbourne Zoo after about 10 years since the last visit, I forgot how big this place is. The Zoo is maintained wonderfully and seems very clean with plenty of maps, toilets, food and drink available. There is ample seating and rest areas along the trails and in the main section of the zoo. The parking is good and reasonably priced but can fill up very quickly, the time limit is 5 Hours. When i visited some of the exhibits were closed for upgrades so if you're visiting to see a certain animal you might want to check out the Zoo's website to see the availability and times that some animals are available or if the enclosure is closed for repairs or upgrades. I went on a Friday and it was still quite busy so expect large crowds on weekends and holidays. I'll be coming back again soon as i forgot to charge the camera batteries and the camera died less than half way through :(

    Love the zoo so it's not surprising I'm a subscriber. A day at Melbourne Zoo is always an enjoyable excursion. We prefer to travel there via public transport with both the tram and metro stopping at their entrance. Friendly knowledgeable staff abound all willing to answer questions about the animals in the enclosures they are attending too. My favs are always the lemurs, the giant tortoise , the butterfly house and platypus house. The place is squeaky clean and has many food options to suit nearly every budget.

    Tired but me and my son had a wonderful time... Some of the other areas are closed until further notice. Some of the resident animals were not happy they misses their wild life I guess.

  • 5/5 Jason L. 3 years ago on Google
    Need to book tickets online, even if you are a zoo member. There are two sessions a day: one in the mornings and one in the afternoon/evening. Evening is very quiet. We were the only ones in some of the exhibits and the only ones riding the carousel. We were also the only ones in the dinosaur area for a period. The main food area was closed but the giraffe cafe was open at dinner time.

    Wonderful place of learning and entertainment for kids and adults. Ample eateries and resting space. Not too big and overwhelming. Loved the dino exhibit and the snow leopards.

  • 5/5 Jessica B. 3 years ago on Google
    The zoo was great and although it was a hot day we had a fantastic time. A little disappointed that the reptile house wasn't open but on the plus side the kids got to see Santa and get a photo so really happy with that

    It was amazing. A lot of people, but didn't feel crowded. Recommend brining a lunch as it can turn into an all day event.

    One of the Best Zoo!

  • 5/5 Matt S. 3 years ago on Google
    An excellent, fresh air activity - beautiful settings, well maintained, and a great variety of animals. The yearly membership is great venue, especially if you have young kids. Visiting tips: - Best to go in the morning, when crowds are low and animals are active. - Steer clear on weekends or school holidays - it's crowded and you'll likely have trouble finding a park! - South gate is less busy for parking and entry - Food vendors are pricey, but you can take your own food.

  • 4/5 Laeticia S. 3 years ago on Google
    It’s amazing! Perfect place to go with your family and friends. They make audiences aware of the endangered species and how we can help - which I think is very important for the new generation to know. There should be more bins around the zoo as people do like to carry food and such around the zoo and have no place to throw it away. All the staff are very accommodating and I enjoyed my time with my family at Melbourne Zoo.

  • 5/5 Maddie G. 3 years ago on Google
    Always a great day at Melbourne Zoo. Walking around is so relaxing and there are many great animals to see. The zoo is very well maintained and the staff & volunteers are lovely and informative. The zoo is passionate about conservation and education. The parking and tram stop at the front are also excellent for accessibility.

  • 5/5 Klaus B. 3 years ago on Google
    A credit to all that look after the animals and the gardens always well worth a visit will however be glad when tickets can be bought again on site top place to spend the day 👍

  • 4/5 Danika S. 3 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Deepankar B. 3 years ago on Google
    Well I would say I would be comparing Melb. zoo with werribie one. The zoo is smaller. But still takes a day to cover all the things. The animal enclosures are not big. Of course it's a zoo but I felt the enclosures to be relatively small. The thing which I felt was a trick to make the path so twisted and turned and showing the same cage from different angles so it felt that they have lots of room. But when you actually see from a bird's eye view they are small. Don't want to blame anyone but felt bad for the animals, some of them were only one of their species. Coming to the pros. It is a well organised zoo. They have kept so many species of animal in such a small place, the organisation is good. You can easily cover the whole zoo in sufficient time. Different regions are setup with ambient forestry to relate to the vibe of the environment. Recommend for young ones to visit once if this is the first time they are visiting animals which are not dogs and cats from neighbours house.

    Great way to spend a day with the family.

  • 5/5 Khalid A. 3 years ago on Google
    A family must! - it could be obvious, but Melbourne Zoo is a place to spend some quality time while learning; in a fun and organised setup. The Zoo is fully pram-friendly, which is an added value for families with little ones. Plenty of parking spaces available on site, and there's the option to arrive by train.

  • 5/5 denise r. 3 years ago on Google
    It never amazed me the Melbourne zoo it is always a delight to go back there

  • 4/5 Geoff A. 3 years ago on Google
    It's a great place, well designed, scenic, enjoyable for a walk. Always something new. Solid animal variety. It loses a point because we booked tickets online in late December 2020, but they took so many bookings that it ruined the experience for everyone. Zoo car park was totally over full and it took 30 minutes just to leave the zoo car park upon entering because there were so many people trying in vain to find a car park. Upon entering the zoo itself (an hour after arriving), there were so many people it was difficult to even see the animals over others. Long lines to get into the zoo, for food, and no tables available. All during a pandemic when they controlled exactly how many people were coming. They should limit online booking numbers to enhance the customer experience. I'd rather go a month later and have a good time.

  • 5/5 Doju 3 years ago on Google
    I love Melbourne! Melbourne is the best. Simply and undoubtedly my favourite getaway vacation from the constant astral horrors that give my brain eyes to observe only what they can. Also they have really good food :)

  • 5/5 Gopisankar M. 3 years ago on Google

    Gets better every time I go, it was raining and reduced numbers. Some animals were more active and able to get close with crowds down. Enclosures are amazing.

    Super accommodating post lockdown, great to get your head in the jungle for a day. For a city zoo they have a wide range of animals and really push the conservation education throughout your experience.

    Love the zoo! Well maintained, beautifully designed, enough space for picnic. We managed to see snow leopard closed up and they have dinosaur instalments when we visited. Pre-purchase tickets only at the moment.

  • 5/5 Amanda De W. 3 years ago on Google
    Absolutely awesome. The huge enclosures make all the animals feel at home.

  • 4/5 Jesse M. 3 years ago on Google
    Overall, from what I saw it was pretty good. Great service from most of the workers. Shout to Ray for making a young boys day. Driving us around in the behind the scenes sections. Very busy day, carpark full. Overall staff managed it well. Some grumpiness here and there, but on a day like that, quite understandable. For being a zoo, animals were kept in quite large enclosures, and from what I saw nothing that looked too suss. Currently free for kids, just get in early during this time, because it was very busy. And yes, covid practices were in place.

  • 5/5 Leigh H. 3 years ago on Google
    Very safe, not many people there.

  • 3/5 hoho h. 3 years ago on Google
    Great animals that are not afraid of humans and easy to observe unless you arrive late. Warning: bring some food because the restaurants have some of the worst food I have ever eaten on top of being very expensive. It is also sad that almost everything in the souvenir shop is made for children. Would have loved to buy some beautiful illustrated books about animals for example.

  • 4/5 Jessica S. 3 years ago on Google

    It was ok. But wasn't worth the money you paid for as I would recommend not coming on a hot day. Most of the animals are hidding from the heat, even no penguins & specially the Lions and Tigers. Staff member said the Lions are in their aircon rooms...lol 😅

  • 4/5 Surya L. 3 years ago on Google
    Its a great place to visit different kinds of animals and birds with your family or friends. If you are a nature or animal lover or photographer you can plan to visit alone as well. You can see Tiger, Snow Leopard, Lion etc and many birds and butterflies. Plan your time at each stops accordingly as there are a lot to cover. If you are planning evening session, plan to cover all by 7 or 7.30 as they start closing each ones by that time though the session end time is mentioned as 8 pm.

    Excellent zoo with easy access to all areas. Pram friendly. Family friendly. Toilets and food options in good locations with free water refill stations dotted around the zoo too. Food is expensive though. We always take a picnic 🙂 We were there for 4 hours and hardly even managed to get through a third of the exhibits. Parking was very super cheap for Melbourne but it was filling up when we arrived at 1030 so plan accordingly.

  • 4/5 A A. 3 years ago on Google
    Overall great day. Good enclosures and most animals easy to view. Gorillas amazing to watch and after some searching found a great up close view. Great lawns and shaded picnic spots. Some tips to enhance visitor experience: 1- please windex the viewing glass more often for both viewing and hiegene reasons. 2-top up the hand sanitiser more often. Many empty by 11am 3- while there is a paper map provided and also maps around the zoo that show where you are, it is still easy to become disoriented as the maps are not that detailed and don't indicate direction/orientation a such. There should be signed arrows at all junctions. 4- 5 hr parking had us rushing at the end, especially since the visiting sessions are 6 hours (ie 9am to 3pm)

    What a beautiful place to visit late afternoon. Many of the animals were hiding, the monkey walk was long for little legs to see very few animals. The only big cats we saw were the snow leopards but they were very special to see. The carousel and dinosaurs were highlights and we had to see the platypus twice. Uber eats delivered a beautiful meal to the front gate for us and we listened to music and watched the carousel as we ate. It’s a great time to see the museum as crowds are smaller with covid.

    The Melbourne Zoo has come so far in the past 5 years or more its really nicely done and themed in spots its still the best value for money place of its kind! It has a fantastic layout very easy to find your way round its pretty seamless walking from one area into the next. My favourite place is still after many years the butterfly enclosure just the sheer number of wings and the warmth inside its a very tranquil place to hang out we all loved it! Very clean and tidy and staff are very friendly as well. Toilets are in good condition and the places to eat at are also nicely setup I had a fantastic latte here today 10/10

    Ah I have been taking my kids annually upon their request, werribee zoo although needing some more living things has surely taken over. The zoo it self needs some more species to view... even the lion enclosure how beautiful their was a queue to see the praying mantus which I did want to see. So 80s... and I think covid may of eaten some of the animal numbers. Wish I was a millionaire to donate and create some new enclosures. Stay strong guys.

    Excellent day out for both adults and children. Hadn't been for over a decade and a lot has changed.. the exhibits are very immersive now and there's plenty of rest areas and kiosks for a bite to eat. The evening zoo sessions over summer are a great idea to go when there's less crowds and the weather is milder. Highly recommend a Zoo annual membership which allows unlimited visits to here, Werribee Zoo and Healesville Sanctuary.

    It's fun. Strategically planned as to not have you back track and weaves you through the exhibits pretty smoothly. A lot of the kids related activities were closed off due to Covid,l but they enjoyed visiting the animals at least. There was a very long line to see the chimps and the giraffes since they were in the indoor enclosures, we skipped that. Maybe if you have an early entry ticket it's not so bad, we went at noon. We enjoyed seeing the elephant show - they are pretty intelligent animals.

    Last year for my daughter's birthday, we went to the Central Park Zoo in NYC. She enjoyed visiting the zoo so much she wanted to go to the one right here in her hometown, the Maryland Zoo in Baltimore. I've been away from Baltimore for several years, and am glad to be retired and living here again. I know I'll visit the zoo often, so I became a member. We had a wonderful day at the Maryland zoo... great place to go during this season of social distancing.

    Needs more animals. You have to walk to far before seeing any animals and is not senior friendly. Long uphill walk to exit zoo. Pretty clean and animals are well kept.

    My fiancé and I toured the Mansion Porch House on Saturday, January 29th. We have had to cancel our wedding twice now, so we were looking for a venue that could possibly accommodate us for an outdoor ceremony and reception. My interactions with the Director of Sales was quite cordial. She was very helpful and friendly, answering all the questions I had prior to our in-person tour of the venue. These cordial interactions continued through the tour up until today, when we contacted her to discuss finalizing our wedding date and securing the venue. We were provided with a list of approved caterers, which we have been contacting since Saturday, hours after we left the venue. We wanted to first confirm the caterers availability and ensure that they were both within our budget and served a menu that we as a couple would enjoy. After emailing over ten caterers on the approved list, we located a vendor which was not only affordable, but had great reviews on Yelp and a menu that we would enjoy. We contacted the caterer only to find that they were already booked for the date that we had chosen. So we were back to the drawing board. After my fiancé and I reviewed the contract, we noticed under the "catering" section, that the venue would consider approving a vendor that was not on the list they provided, for additional fees. We then reached out to the Director of Sales to discuss how we would go about having a caterer of our choosing approved. This is when our interactions completely changed. We initially had to leave a voicemail where we politely explained our dilemma and advised that we really wanted to utilize a black-owned vendor (from what we understand, none of the vendors on the approved list are black-owned). The Director of Sales then returned our call and shut us down immediately. She said that approving another caterer was her decision to make and that she would not consider any other vendors that were not on their list. We were surprised at her response, because she never ever asked us what caterer we wanted to use, she automatically assumed that the vendor we would select would be unsuitable. She stated that this was due to covid and the zoo's reputation. If anyone has been to the zoo within the last few years, that excuse was laughable. Additionally, why open your venue for event rental if you're indeed concerned about covid? It wasn't as if they were testing and screening our guests and other vendors upon arrival to our event. We mentioned to her again the portion in the contract she had just sent us hours before, which clearly stated that it would be considered. If this is what the zoo considers consideration, they may as well just remove this portion of the contract. Now, I have spoken to MANY venues who have had strict policies on the vendors that they allow. The Maryland Zoo on the other hand only had the requirement for the caterer, with the stipulation that I mentioned. Her abrupt dismissal left a horrible taste in our mouths. Mind you, we were reminded on several occasions that the rental fees assist with the upkeep of the zoo. So you would think that they would be more flexible seeing as though the zoo has been closed for months due to covid. My fiancé and I are currently reaching out to the zoo to discuss our experience further. I am hoping this review will prompt someone to reach out to us to discuss this incident.

    We visited the Chistmas Lightkng show at night. The ticket was $20 per person. The lighting was nice and ww did see penguines at their habitat. The walk towards the zoo was nice. We see kids are enjoying hw lighting very much. It took us barely 30 minuted to enter, see the whole show and come back. To be honest, we expected a little more for the ticket price! Over all, good!

  • 4/5 Jazmine A. 3 years ago on Google
    A small but beautiful zoo, with a pretty good winter price ($15). Took my 3 year old today and I appreciated that she was able to walk most of the way, since there isn’t a lot of uphill climbs. If you go, go early! We arrived at 10am and it felt like we were the only ones there for the first hour. We got to see the exhibits up close and most of the available exhibits were lively. (Usually if I go to a zoo in the afternoon most of the animals are hiding or napping.) COVID restrictions are following well marked paths, no playground/slide access, and I believe a limited amount of people allowed in the chimpanzee area but like I said, if you arrive early there’s no line and you get to stay in longer than a busier time. The elephants and giraffes weren’t out today, but it was pretty chilly so I’m sure they were inside where it was warm. The only thing that made me feel bad was the Jaguar was pacing in a grooved area, I hope it’s staff members give the poor thing extra love or something :( All in all a good trip to cure cabin fever during covid

  • 4/5 Dj H. 3 years ago on Google
    Visited from 1000-1200 and most the animals were still waking up I think, but the exhibits were very well kept up and the staff very friendly. Good for a nice walk and a couple hours outside. Not very many exhibits compared to larger zoos.

    Love seeing the animals! Great experience with the chimps! The babies were adorable 😍. The only thing was that some animals were not in their enclosure and there wasn't a sign or anyone to explain why.

  • 4/5 Patterson H. 3 years ago on Google
    Mostly good. We appreciated the winter discount and the Zoo is well laid out. However, they’ve taken COVID precautions to the next level. Most buildings and indoor exhibits are closed. They only let one group into the Chimp house every 4-5 minutes. The result: you stand in a crowded line for 30+ minutes and then end up being the only person in a 3,000 sq ft building. I’d go. Just skip the lines...not worth it.

    I’ve been here twice now and it’s one of the best I’ve visited! Parking is easy and inexpensive ($2 for 5 hours) and the loop design of the exhibits makes the zoo so easy to navigate. The animals have been so active each time I’ve visited, which I believe is a testament to how happy and healthy they are. A keeper at the lemur exhibit today was so informative and explained how they’re working toward building a koala hospital and making sure the animals have the most natural, open-range enclosures. Having a zoo membership is absolutely worth it!

    Love this zoo! Its been a couple of years since I've been here, but plan on going this year. Nicely kept, and has a pretty diverse primate selection. Primates being my favorite mammals. But I also have fond memories of visiting the Rainforest, which I'm pretty sure is getting a new roof right now! The spiral enclosed staircase was pretty cool in there, hope its still there!

  • 5/5 RAHUL S. 3 years ago on Google
    The Asian Lantern Festival is an amazing event being organized at Zoo location. The night lights make the visits memorable, complete zoo is decorated with beautiful structures ornamented with colourful lights. The dinosaurs 🦕 with lights gives a realistic feel articulated with sound effects. Even the night shows conducted at 9:45pm was an additional talented show, which added more to the overall audience.

  • 4/5 Chanchal 3 years ago on Google
    Entertaining and an experiential spot. Liked Lion, Elephants, Zebra, Rhino, Golden Monkey, Kangaroos, Flamingo etc. It has a boardwalk to primates, cats etc which is super cool, maples all along the walk. Train ride was fun, we were able to see Kangaroos. Decoration on Asian theme was fabulous. There are resting benches, cafes, ice cream parlor at many places. Waterfowl Lake is nice.

The gorillas were cool too. I would love to go back here again. The dinosaur exhibit was also wonderful. There was also a McDonald’s and Pizza Hut. Great for kids.

    Dissapointing. Animal enclosures are small and do not seem humane. Map they hand out is useless. Feels more like a 70's zoo than a haven for the creatures they are responsible to care for. Won't go back.

    Many exhibits (bears, birds of prey, and many in the Rainforest and Primates, Cats, and Aquatics building) seem way too small. The Australian Lungfish barely has room to turn around in its tank. I know it's AZA accredited, but it's seems like they used the minimum measurement requirements. And so many loud after hours events (with alcohol)- I'm sure the animals don't appreciate that.

    Awesome place to bring your kids and explore for the day. The best part is in the back with the primate, cat and aquarium building which sits atop a very large hill so bring your walking shoes. During COVID-19 times the tram is not running and the hill is sizable.

    A wide variety of exhibits cleverly built into a relatively small area. Everything in the Zoo is easily accessible for everyone.

    This is one of my favourite places to go with kids. I've been here countless number of times now. The zoo is very well organised and very easy to navigate. You can traverse the whole zoo without walking repeated paths and you can easily do it in a day. There is a good range of animals and the animals are all kept extremely well and happy thanks to the high standard of animal ethics. Most importantly, it's not just about watching animals and be entertained. Melbourne Zoo works very hard to educate people about how we can contribute to the preservation of animals and help them fight extinctions. That's and making a real positive impact to our world.

  • 4/5 StripyTurtle 3 years ago on Google
    We went with my mum and a one and a half year old... the toddler was uninterested in all of the animals, except the random limited time Dino exhibit... Was fun overall though, but we couldn't spot most of the animals, and the ones that we could spot weren't really even moving.... The one place that I loved so much was the butterfly house! Would definitely recommend visiting that part if you go... The weather was great 😊 thought which made a big difference to the experience. (Tip: don't buy the ice coffee or ice chocolate, they weren't very nice, and bring your own lunch as everything is very pricey)

    The good: It's by the beach. The exhibits are very open - we really loved the giraffes, the wolves, and the flamingos. Do the little train ride, I learned the most about the zoo this way (be a cool kid and sit near the front) and there was a peacock hanging out by the train. But the kids *loved* the park inside the zoo - 60% of our time was spent there. The bad: the carousel was broken (we like a good carousel), the pachyderm building didn't have elephants, and food was so ridiculously expensive. Five dollars for a soft drink from the vending machine...are you kidding me? $9 for a regular pretzel with cheese...please!

Good food and drink options without being over priced but can also take your own. Good variety of animals and experiences on offer. Plan for 3 hours minimum but you can easily spend a whole day here

    Great for kids. Keeper Kids experience gave young children some much needed rest time after walking around the zoo. Adequate toilet facilities. Staff are friendly and helpful.

    It is a really nice experience. Not that crowded and has a lot enclosures to visit. It is my first time to come here and will definitely go back again. Me and my friends really had fun together exploring the zoo. It is also really clean and well maintained. In addition, there are also some enlosures that has some guide/zoo keepers that are explaining about certain animals like their behavior, habitat and other things.

    I loved seeing the seals under water and all the animals were so beautiful. Very lovely day

    Went during the start of school holidays and it was buzzing with kids and mostly mothers. It was great though as it makes spotting the animals much easier. You can always see and hear the mothers pointing out where the animals are hiding :) Explored mostly everything except the butterfly house as it doesn’t permit entry from 4:30pm onwards. The queue was extremely long and that was the reason why I decided to make that my last stop, however I was declined entry. I suggest you start queuing around 4pm. The zoo has plenty of eating places, and vegetarian options available too! Japanese garden was really peaceful, and the carousel was popular with young children 🎠. I’m amazed that the zoo offers plenty of educational advertising such as sustainability and fighting extinction. There’s even a recycling plant that you can see through! Overall a very enjoyable experience!

    Must go! All the animals are taken care of nicely with love for sure! We loved our little trip to the zoo and all covid protocols were followed. I recommend this zoo to family and anyone who are looking for a one day trip .

  • 5/5 Erin M. 2 years ago on Google
    Melbourne's 160-year-old flagship zoo in Parkville may not have the harbour views of Sydney's Taronga Zoo, but with its rolling green lawns set amid the wider parklands of Royal Park - just a stone's throw from the CBD - it's a wonderful place to take a stroll and spend a morning or afternoon with the family. Add to that the innovative animal exhibits, like the walk-through lemur enclosure, elephant trail and predator viewing areas, and you have a wonderful modern zoo experience of international standard.

    Love going to the zoo with my son .

  • 5/5 Shraye M. 2 years ago on Google
    Melbourne zoo is a great place for a day out with friends or family. Very conveniently located just 5 mins from the Melbourne CBD. Keeper talks are very informative and all the staff is absolutely lovely. Buy a ticket or get the pass to support the lovely conservation work they. Do visit the butterfly house when you're there as it is an absolutely wonderful experience.

  • 5/5 Yalçın D. 2 years ago on Google
    On this season butterfly house was beautiful and butterflies are awesome. Check this pictures out. That was oustendig experienced for me and my family.

  • 5/5 Ian F. 2 years ago on Google
    First time visiting the zoo for a couple of years. It was a bit weird not having keeper talks because of covid but there's now QR codes that link to similar information. It was also really interesting to see how the enclosures are becoming more and more like the animals habitats. It's been a big evolution over the past 20-30 years and really exciting to see it's constantly improving. Also, it was interesting to see some animals I don't remember seeing at Melbourne zoo like the tapir and peccaries.

  • 5/5 Kristen 2 years ago on Google
    This is an absolute must when visiting Melbourne. We live in Melbourne and go every year. The animals are well loved and taken care of and the habitats they live in are spacious and very well looked after. They staff who work there clearly love what they do and are very friendly and helpful, particularly those who work with the animals. I recommend visiting our zoo to anyone looking for a fun day trip spent outdoors.

  • 5/5 Xavier C. 2 years ago on Google
    Good variety of animals here. It's clean, pleasantly spaced out and the staff here were all smiles! Love how the zookeepers really took their time to talk about the animals under their care. Special shout out to the elephant and giraffe enclosures! Well done guys! Food is quite limited, typical grub at attractions. Fried food, pies, pastries, salads, amazed that theres a bakery there! Bring your own food if you don't wanna spend too much on ready made food.

  • 5/5 Lorinda F. 2 years ago on Google
    Wonderful zoo! Easy to book online, great Cafe food, not too crowded, and stunning animals 🥰🦁🐯🐘

  • 5/5 sasanka A. 2 years ago on Google
    Fantastic experience for all ages within Melbourne city limits. Allow at least 4 hours to leisurely enjoy all the habitats and wear comfortable clothes and shoes. Car parking is only $2 for 5 hours. Highlights for us were the lion and the snow leopards. Good commentary sessions from staff too.. also, enough cafes and restaurants with good food and beverages.

  • 5/5 Saji M. 2 years ago on Google
    Pleasant experience visiting the zoo. Convenient prior booking. Ample parking upon arrival. Smooth entry despite the additional precautionary measures required because of the pandemic situation. Helpful map distributed. Convenient food outlets available. Found most places to be clean and neat. The animal population inside did not appear to be large, but we could meet a good variety of them.

  • 5/5 Jiarui Y. 2 years ago on Google
    Been here a few times, I love taking photos of the animals (I’ll add them later). It’s great, all you have to do is to show them vaccination proof and scan the code. Then, you’re in! Such a fun place to be, it’s a must see when visiting Melbourne for a holiday!

  • 5/5 Kara R. 2 years ago on Google
    Such a great zoo! I like that some times you just don't see some animals because they have enclosures that allow them to be hidden. Beautiful gardens and paths with cool shady spots even on hot days.

  • 5/5 Irwin H. 2 years ago on Google
    It was great to be back. All the animals were out. Absolute favourites were the butterflies, tassie devil and lemurs. We felt very covid safe. A couple of new enclosures since we haven’t been there in years. Lots of lovely friendly staff around who made us feel very welcome. Parking outside is still $2 for 5 hrs. Lots of food options with sitting areas. Not many sheltered areas if the weathers bad so definitely bring an umbrella if the weather forecast is horrible. Locker rental available at the front. Overall a great family fun day with lots of photo opportunities. Definitely worth being a zoo member if you are looking to visit frequently. Would also recommend public transport if you want to save yourself the trouble of driving in.

  • 4/5 Nicole W. 1 year ago on Google
    Great Day out! Plenty to do but only down side going on a public holiday is that the Zoo let's in way to many people and its to packed to really enjoy anything or even walk around without getting pushed around, better off going at a different time!

  • 5/5 Kate N. 2 years ago on Google
    Stayed overnight for the 'roar and snore'. Fantastic opportunity to see and hear animals at night. Carla and Pete, our guides, were really fun and knowledgeable. Great experience!

  • 5/5 George P. 2 years ago on Google
    Fantastic Place to go Unfortunately a lot of the Exhibits,Tigers etc were NOT there a little disappointing but Covid has affected everyone..

  • 5/5 Swarat N. 2 years ago on Google
    The themes like Asian Rainforest, Elephant Trail, Wild Sea, Lion's Gorge all are exceptional. The zoo is very clean and well maintained. "Experiences" with animals like Kangaroo feeding, etc are good as well. Tram 58 from city or Upfield train line to Royal Park station are convenient travel options to the zoo.

  • 5/5 Louise B. 2 years ago on Google
    Staff where lovely. Variety on animals. Perfect for a day out warm or cold. Lovely place to take the kids or have a family day out.

    Best Zoo in Australia

  • 4/5 David L. 1 year ago on Google
    I am not generally a fan of zoo's as they always remind me of prisons for animals, but i think an exception can be made for Melbourne Zoo. Unique wildlife in natural surrounding and most animals appear to be thriving, roaming around with vitality, not stuck in a corner looking sad. We particularly enjoyed the big cats, the giraffes who look amazing and a wonderful butterfly house. A must visit if you are in Melbourne

  • 4/5 Lilian Y. 1 year ago on Google
    A good 3 to 4 hours spent with kids and friends. A few areas were closed for renovation. Easy to find drinks and snacks (muffin and chips). Toilets and bins can be easily found. There is a pinic area. Good to bring your own lunch as there isn't any restaurant or cafe for food. Parking is $2 for 5 hours.

  • 4/5 Carmal C. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice adventure! It was during school holidays so packed with people .Also difficult to get a parking spot.Overall my son had a lovely time.We got to see some animals.Wish we were able to see more animals. Nice coffee and sandwich! Wouldn’t mind taking my son there again!

  • 5/5 Avery L. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful place, really enjoyed the interesting keeper talks. Animal lovers can easily spend a whole day here. Big place with several trails and a large variety of animals. My favourite place to sit and eat or relax is at the cafe near the giraffe and zebra enclosure (level 2, open air). Also loved watching the baboons and elephants. Buy coffee here - support coffee for wildlife ($5.20 for large, $4.50 for regular). Great conservation messages. Use 100% recycled toilet paper, avoid unsustainable palm oil products. Glad I'm a member of the zoos :)

  • 5/5 Kayla H. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent zoo with thoughtful enclosures and carefully selected plants. It was great walking through the different sections of the park. Each section is spaced out enough so that it doesn’t seem crowded. The animals generally have large open enclosures which is great to see. Nice reading about the conservation efforts of the zoo as well. Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Anceef A. 1 year ago on Google
    I had a wonderful time visiting the zoo with my toddler. The experience left us both feeling thrilled and excited. The zoo was very well-organized, but we found that to see all the animals in action, it's best to arrive early in the morning or in the late evening. Otherwise, many of them may be sleeping and it's better to get a membership if you are planning to visit again and again.

  • 4/5 Spagman 1 year ago on Google
    Always a great day but food prices, especially drinks are out of control. $5 for one cup with no refill is ridiculous. Still, the staff are fantastic, the exhibits great (even if everything is covered in vast quantities of bird poop) & we loved the Lemur experience. Allow at least 6 hours to see everything and pack your own food & drinks.

  • 4/5 Michelle M. 9 months ago on Google
    The whole day was fantastic, we had so much fun. Ventured into the park with 7 year old and 4 year old. We hadn’t seen all the animals and exhibits before the 4 year old was exhausted but it was so worth it. Would go again for sure anyway. Staff were fantastic Parking being locked in for 5hours kind of sucked but that’s the councils fault.

  • 4/5 Nicole D. 9 months ago on Google
    I think the Melbourne zoo is a beautiful place for the family. The atmosphere is lovely, and the animals are delightful. Sometimes, it's sad when the enclosures are bare, but honestly, that can't be helped. I do feel entry is still a little steep despite children being free. I also feel that they could update some of the information and signs around to make it look more inviting for the younger ones to read. Overall, it's a beautiful place.

  • 5/5 swagata d. 9 months ago on Google
    Excellent place for kids for roaming around animals. The place is well maintained and they create natural habitat for animals , huge place , very nice. Me & my husband take zoo membership so we can visit soon.

  • 4/5 Doug E. 9 months ago on Google
    What a great day out for you and your family. As of 18/06/2023 on weekends and school holidays kids entry is free! The best way to visit the zoo is by becoming a member. Skip the lines and don't bother booking. Just rock up whenever you want. Not too mention entry into Helasville and Werribee open range zoo. Great day to see all the animals!

  • 5/5 Connor S. 8 months ago on Google
    Went here last week, had an awesome time! We got in early on and the zoo was relatively busy but we were still able to navigate our way around easily and see most of the animals! The snow leopards and the reptiles were our favorites!

  • 5/5 Sarah B. 9 months ago on Google
    Went to the zoo for the first time in years and absolutely loved it! My partner and I have been twice this year, first time it was raining so some of the animals weren’t out but it was still very enjoyable! It wasn’t busy either which was great. Second time it was clear weather so it was a bit more busy but so great to see all the animals out and about enjoying the sun 🥰 only downside is it was busier so we avoided things like the butterfly house. We had a little snack whilst we were there and it was great to see that they have GF options! Definitely check it out if you haven’t been in awhile or even need something todo!

  • 4/5 D Y. 8 months ago on Google
    Our family always have a great time at the zoo but more so from the atmosphere being in proximity to lots of different animals than the location itself here. We usually spend 4-5 hours on a Saturday at any given visit. There are always many animals not in sight, mostly sleeping or very far away so it can be disappointing if kids have been excited to see them. I'm not sure how much it can be helped though as you also don't want to disrupt how the animals naturally behave. The food options need improvement. Various outlets around the zoo which is great but small servings vs high prices. We prefer to pack our own food for this reason but it can be tiresome lugging food around all day for a whole family. Positives are the great open spaces for kids to run around, the carousel area is especially fun and recently we were able to enjoy our lunch break in one of the domes which was something different and exciting. The themed events that are run usually in Summer are also a fun experience for the family.

  • 5/5 Erin S. 7 months ago on Google
    I loved this zoo. The enclosures were big and full of enrichment for the animals. The baby elephants were adorable! The giraffes were another highlight. The paths through the enclosures weren't too packed even on a midday weekend. Some of the animals were sleeping when I went, the lions, snow leopards and red pandas. If you love animals it's a must when you visit Melbourne.

  • 5/5 Janelle B. 7 months ago on Google
    We had a fantastic day visiting Melbourne Zoo. We are zoo members so love visiting when we can. It wasn't too busy given it was a nice winter day. It was great to see the baby elephants out and about. The pygmy hippo was also very active which our kids loved. We rode on the carousel, which is always a highlight (although $3.50 per child extra). We arrived at around midday and packed a picnic. Parking was easy at this time of day as plenty of people are leaving for lunch and naps.

  • 4/5 gracia p. 7 months ago on Google
    Went here by myself and I quite enjoyed my time here. The zoo is nice and clean. Very well maintained as I can see. But almost all kiosk of food and drink were close because it’s weekday. The animals are beautiful! So sad I can’t see a lot of them either they were relocated to Weribee or just sleeping inside. Koala also facing backwards to sleep 🥲 Lemurs are so cute and butterfly house is so warm✨

  • 4/5 Yu Q. 7 months ago on Google
    Nice and clean. Overall good atmosphere and large variety of exhibits. Went on a Tuesday afternoon so there weren’t many food stalls open. It rained too so many animals were either sheltering or sleeping, so didn’t actually get to see much unfortunately. Was a bit disappointed that the aviary at the Australian Bush section didn’t have information about the species that we were seeing, only telling us about the habitat the sections were supposed to be. I wished they had quokkas, but that’s just a personal preference. As a first time visitor, the zoo kinda felt like a maze and it didn’t really have many directions or signages. Overall a pleasant experience, but unfortunately not very educational in terms of biodiversity/ecology. Appreciate the effort to educate on conservation and pollution though! Good for kids.

  • 5/5 Paul K. 6 months ago on Google
    Yearly memberships are the way to go, covering a heap of main zoos across the country. The zoo pass gives a small discount at lunch but isn’t accepted in the smaller outlets ‘drinks are a rip off and can’t top back up’. With a yearly zoo pass you can follow the baby elephants 🐘 from Melbourne zoo to where they are going next ‘which is close to shadow fax winery’

  • 5/5 Sarah G. 6 months ago on Google
    We love coming to the zoo. It's always a fun day out. Staff are happy to chat to the children about the animals. It's clean and animals are in great sized enclosures.

  • 4/5 Jessica B. 6 months ago on Google
    We love the zoo , arrived at 10ish and didn’t wait long to enter into the zoo. The gardens are very beautiful, abs even though it was school holidays we found we didn’t need to wait very long to get through different enclosures . We particularly enjoyed the giraffes and the butterfly house .

  • 5/5 YinG T. 6 months ago on Google
    fantastic zoo in Melbourne and definitely something I would go back again and again, especially with the zoo membership kids get in for free during the school holidays in Melbourne and on the weekend with the adults. we had a great time.

  • 5/5 Jade Koekoe (Misskoko the L. 5 months ago on Google
    All of the Victorian zoos are very well maintained, and the animals look healthy. I would suggest bringing your won food as each zoo is a bit expensive. Don't forget there are special school holiday activities, so keep an eye out for what they do during that time. A good day out for the kids.

  • 5/5 Houda G. 4 months ago on Google
    We spend a really fun day at the zoo. We saw as much animals as possible, some of them weren’t out because of the heat. But overall it’s a nice zoo.

  • 5/5 Craftingwiththebeard 4 months ago on Google
    Fantastic way to spend a day! Love coming here and checking out all the amazing displays. Great for families and there is a large area for picnics or relaxing on the grass. One of my favourite places to come to relax and spend a day wandering around

  • 5/5 Mayu 4 months ago on Google
    Had a great time at this zoo! Purchased the ticket in advance on the day. It’s amazing that you can put your e ticket on wallet app. Very easy to show them at the entrance without any queues.

  • 5/5 Jina H. 4 months ago on Google
    Love the experience of seeing animals here at the zoo - were very lucky with many close experiences on the day I went. When overcast and slightly drizzly, some animals will hide away though especially the primates. Being at the zoo pretty early on after opening allowed me and friends to see almost every single animal (except Hutan the Sumatran tiger), and seeing animals being fed around lunch. Definitely do recommend the free keepers talk and set times - short informational talks!

  • 5/5 Ankur R. 3 months ago on Google New
    Nice place to spend time with family. Clean, sorted and with great collection of animals. Loads of signage for creating awareness regarding animals. Enough food and coffee outlets available. Seals, lion and orangutans are amazing. Must visit.

    Melbourne Zoo is the best Zoo experience I have had. The Zoo and its animal enclosures are beautifully curated by the loveliest keepers. we had the pleasure of talking to a keeper in the reptile exhibit who was in the process of setting up the planting for new animals. He was extremely lovely and you could tell how passionate he was about his work by how beautiful and lush each of the exhibits looked. The Zoo itself is has something for all ages, with ample about of green trees that provide shade as you travel through, vibrant cafes, water refill stations and a splash pad for the kiddies to cool down. We will definitely be back and recommending Melbourne Zoo to all our friends and family.
