Worth doing
We enjoyed the butterfly park and the bird sanctuary but thought the Koala Gardens were generic and nothing amazing.

Great time
We had a great time at the Koala Gardens, on what was a very hot day. The only thing I would say was that walking from the Skyrail/Train station there were no signs to the Koala gardens, we had to go into the information centre to ask! We enjoyed birdworld as well.

Holding Koala
It was worth every penny to actually hold the koala, not just pat it.

The bird and butterfly sanctuaries were very interesting
The bird and butterfly sanctuaries were very interesting and enjoyable and well worth the time. However I thought the Koala park was very limited.... took less than 10 minutes to go through.
