Beautiful Birds to See! - Beautiful Birds to see, they were very calm and friendly. Quite a few different species in Birdworld. I got to see the Cassowary up close which my younger sister enjoyed.

So good don’t miss it 👌 - It was so good, honestly didn’t expect much and loved every minute, the birds are amazing, I have never had an experience like it, will go again 💯 Make sure you buy the bird food when you enter and go as early as possible, you can hand feed the birds they come to you!

Fun the birds got up close - It was a lot of fun and the birds got up close - kids loved it and would recommend a visit. A lot of opportunities with photos with the birds I had like 4 on me at one stage.

Unique experience - A wonderful bird world interacting with us humans 💕 It was simply wonderful to see how we (birds & humans) got closer to each other and how such unique experiences arose! A visit to Birdworld Kuranda is highly recommended.

Unreal - What a great experience , being with the birds feee flying , one bird did chew the button of my partners hat , we were warned

A Must If You Love Animals - I love animals but I've never had a chance to interact with birds before and to be honest I wasn't expecting much from Kuranda Birdworld - maybe a nice way to fill some time looking at pretty creatures. So it was a wonderful surprise to step into the aviary and discover that we were sharing space with the exhibits - not just looking at them through cage bars. Better still, I had purchased a little brown paper bag of seed/nuts at the ticket counter, and the moment the birds saw that bag, I had several instant best friends. Parrots of all varieties took turns to land on my shoulders, my head, my forearms, they were hanging upside down off my handbag... one climbed under my arm for a cuddle as I was leaning on a fence railing! And they were almost all perfectly gentle and well-behaved - although sometimes a bit pushy in pursuit of an almond! This experience was so charming, we went back again the following day and it was equally fun the second time. What you need to know: 1) The aviary is large and tall so the birds can fly freely, and consists of an easy-to-access main covered feeding area, above a winding paved path that snakes around down the side of a hill and back to the top again. In the middle there are a series of filtered ponds for the ducks and other water birds. The aviary is landscaped with lots of trees and shrubs, so the birds have got plenty of spots to perch and nest. The uphill walking is not too challenging and there are hand-rails along the way. If you're enjoying the visit, you'll probably stroll around the track a few times to see all the different varieties of birds. 2) There is a bit of cover here and there in case of rain, but not a huge amount. 3) The aviary is clean and very well maintained and the animals are happy, healthy and sassy. We observed staff regularly cleaning to keep things fresh, and the staff were also lovely and open to talking about the birds and the aviary itself. 4) Some of the parrots will decide they like the look of you and just fly from wherever they are to land on your shoulder or head - it doesn't hurt but if the idea of this scares you (eeek! it's in my hair!), then this experience is perhaps not for you. 5) We arrived well before midday on both of our visits and there were still bags of bird-food available to purchase at the ticket counter. People who arrived some time after us missed out as the supply of bird food ran out. Note - It's not the end of the world if you don't get the bird food - but you certainly receive more attention from the feathered beakies if you do have some! 6) We noticed that many of the birds were reluctant to interact with the kids who were dashing about and being excitable. If you want your kids to have a great experience, see if you can get them to stand still and speak quietly, or at least move slowly and patiently. 7) The larger parrots can get a bit pushy with you (I had one force his head and entire upper body into the bag of bird food when I was too slow pulling some out), but it's not a good idea to get pushy with them. If you try to pat them, or move in a way that startles them, they may give you a nip. They don't draw blood or anything, but you know, full disclosure. Anyway, we absolutely loved Kuranda Birdworld - it was the highlight of our entire trip to QLD and considering what we spent on other activities only to receive far less satisfaction, I have to say the birds offer magnificent value for money!

Pricey but worth the experience if you like birds. - Amazing little Avery where the birds are interactive and want to approach you for food, the Avery isn’t very big, if you don’t like birds you would be in and out in 5 minutes, you can spend as short or as long as you like here, admission is probably a bit expensive for what it is, though it’s an experience you should do.

Fun way to interact with birds - We took the train up to Kuranda and it was a nice walk from the station to birdworld. My husband is a big bird lover and was very happy to be able to persuade a couple of them to stick with him for most of the walk through the aviary. At one point, he had three birds of the same species on him-one of which said hello over and over again. I got some great pictures of him and his new friends. Our visit was relatively short but pleasant. They also found the color of my baseball cap attractive apparently..a new experience to have a bird land on my head.

Disappointing - This is very touristy and not what we expected. Not many of the birds were Australian, yet alone local to the area. Indian ring necked parrots flocked for food sitting on heads, necks and shoulders making good photo opportunities - however we were concerned about so many people spreading human disease to these birds. The cassowary needed a much larger area to roam and looked rather sad. Not the place to visit if you are a real bird lover.

Waste of time n money lack of transport for the elderly - Birds were okay paid $50.00 walked around bird sanctuary whole cicuit took two minutes .wouldn't recondmend going there total waste of time n money no transport from kuranda railway for pensioner or people who cant walk properly .myself have walking stick from staion they say seven minutes its all up hill they need some sort of transport for the elderly .the markets there in kuranda what a rip off that also is another waste of time n money on scale of 1 to 10 miy rating .5
