Children enter free on weekends. Redeemed physical tickets at the counter before entering. Great activity for families with young children.
Great day out for all the family..
Redeeming the tickets bought on Pelago was convenient as I just had to approach the ticket counter to exchange them for the official entry ticket. The free safari bus ride was the highlight as you do not really find that in many zoos in big metropolitan cities around the world. They are working on expanding the exhibits and having different species of animals in the upcoming year. Might be worth a visit especially if bringing along children
It was a great experience at great value. Highly recommend.
We had a great day at Werribee Zoo with our family. We went with our daughter, son-in-law and two grandchildren.
It was a great day out with the family getting up close to the animals
