Amazing, must do in Australia - This was absolutely amazing. Highly recommend. So much to see and do. Hold the koala bear, feed the birds and kangaroos. Liked it better than the zoo

A Lovely day out - We found this place fascinating,so good to be close up with so many koalas, sleeping, feeding and moving about. Also several other animals here including a field with kangaroos that you can go into and feed them.The adults love it here let alone the kids!

The kangaroos blew him away - The entire sanctuary was amazing. We wanted to give our 10yr old grandson a wonderful experience with the native animals - and he loved every minute. His absolute favourite even more than cuddling a koala, was the feeding of so many of the kangaroos and the sheer volume of them roaming free. A 180km round trip - but worth every minute. Our grandson rated it 100 out of 10!!

For a very good cause - It's only a 3 hour visit but so worth it. Staff don't mind answering any questions no matter how often asked. Each species has information at hand and there's a good variety to look at

A perfect day with lots of animals - We had a wonderful day at the Lone Pine Sanctuary. We booked the Platinum VIP tour and had a day full of animal encounters, each one more beautiful than the last. Anna accompanied us perfectly throughout the day and told us a lot about the animals. The large meadow with the kangaroos is also a great place to relax. I would come back in a heartbeat!

Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary - Do you love Koalas and Kangaroos? Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary has several species of Australian wildlife. Amazing Koalas in their trees, feed kangaroos, watch a platypus swim, safely observe Dingos, and salt water crocodiles or watch the sheepdog show. There's lots to do at Lone Pine. Wifi available. Food available. Book early and hold a Koala.

The best day out - We loved our day when we visited Lone pine we booked to take a picture with a Koala and to also hold a Koala which we both loved and then we bought a few bags to feed the Kangaroos and wallabies whish was absolutely surreal for me after seeing all these native animals on tv for all my life and being able to get up close and being able to touch and feed them was honestly a brilliant experience. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We had the best day and its gone down as one of the big highlights of our trip to Australia

Platinum Tour Worth Every Penny! - Platinum Tour Worth Every Penny, is only way to go! Kangaroos, Koalas and Dingoes, just a few up close and personal encounters you'll have. Anna, our guide was amazing. Only 6 of us, what a bonus. Anna was extremely personable and shared a wealth of knowledge along with getting us in to additional animal encounters which wasn't expected but truly appreciated. Hands down Best animal tour that enables you to be immersed with these adorable and unique Australian indigenous animals. Worth every penny!!

Nice but is it a sanctuary? - Nice to experience foreign animals, but we cant really forget the overflow of schoolclasses trying to feed the kangaroos (not wanting to be fed). or the picture taking of the koalas. All this questions if its a sancturay or a zoo.
