What travelers say:
Melbourne's Wallerby Wildlife Park is a very large zoo, where animals live very freely, just like on the African savannah, you can take a tour bus to have a close contact with giraffes, zebra antelope, etc. You can also take a protective jeep into the Beast Zone and see very fierce lion tigers and cheetahs, definitely the most worthwhile zoo in Melbourne.

Werribee Open Range Zoo Photos: Trip Moments
- winhkflight
The Koala ExpressCool close encounters with some of the most popular animals. Zoo personnel possess exceptional animal knowledge and are delighted to answer inquiries. Daily keeper talks are on the agenda, and visitors can explore the zoo while attending these talks, which were educational and focused extensively on the zoo’s conservation initiatives. The zoo safari was a standout experience. Animal interactions are not guaranteed as the zoo prioritizes natural behavior and the freedom of animals to choose where they graze and socialize. Nevertheless, during our visit, we observed several animals right beside our bus. There are complimentary water stations scattered throughout the park, so remember to bring a reusable bottle for refills. The cafeteria offers a variety of standard fare, and a coffee kiosk is also available for quick caffeine fixes. Wish HK has more wildlife tourist attractions, but Ocean Park can still satisfy my love for animals I guess! #winhkflightNg Johnathan5

Open range safari in Melbourne, AustraliaWerribee Open Range Safari and Zoo is a popular spot for the young and old! The place was filled with families during my time there. There is a tram that brings visitors around the safari for free. The tour is approximately 30mins. The park closes at 5pm, and the last tram departs the station at 4pm. Unfortunately I only entered the park at 3+pm, and could only catch the tram and not any other attractions at the safari - what a bummer. In the safari, animals are free to roam about the open grass patches and are not enclosed, assimilating its natural habitat.

Close Encounters In WerribeeHad absolute fun and a total different experience in Werribee Open Range Zoo located about 40-50mins drive out of Melbourne. You will have a chance to do tours be it the public or pay for a private tour where you will be able to get even closer to the animals and a guide will drive you around in a small 20 seater bus which would go off course at times and not following the public tours. This brings you to an experience into the savannah where you will come up close with rhinos, giraffes, zebras, antelopes, bison and much more. The guide will also gives you a very brief explanation of the animals and allow you to understand more of its habitat and its behaviour. Furthermore, you will also be able to get tickets from trip.com itself, and in addition be able to claim with trip coins too! This is definitely an experience not to be miss! #melbourne #victoria #werribee #zoo #closeencounters #wildlife #animals #adventure #experience #amazing #fun #outdoor #safariKinnie Kong35

Seeing this price is still doubtful, I can't think of no problem at all! Very happy, worth everyone to go. In summer, you can bring the clothes that children change to play in the water! The open safari bus is included in the ticket for about 40 minutes. It is a must-go project!
When I come to Australia, I must not go wrong. I shook hands with the little kangaroos. They are really super cute. The animals I saw should not have been seen in the spring tour of Wuhan Zoo when I was in junior high school. It is suitable for parent-child travel.
It is worth a visit, African animals are so big
Worth playing.
The second time I came, I didn't see many animals last time, this time it was even less, both in variety and quantity.
Very beautiful open zoo, many types, adults and children are suitable for playing
