Having not visited a zoo for many years I was pleasantly astonished by Perth Zoo. Most impressed by the garden/jungle like nature of the whole environment. All of the animals seemed contented - except the elephants - The highlights for me were the tree kangaroos, complete with very
photogenic joey, the giraffes and most of all, the Australian wetland bird enclosure which is superb. Also deeply appreciative of the absence of "zoo smell". I shall certainly return next time I am in Perth - and I shall take a picnic.

Really helpful docents and staff, great amenities- picnic areas & bbqs, cafe, free water fountains and accessible loos. Wonderful playgrounds. And of course the animals are tops too! Can get quite busy.

Beautiful grounds but could do with a little better upkeep. Also enclosures could be improved a little. For the price you pay compared to other better zoo's around Australia I personally won't be back for another 10yrs, if that. Pretty sad my family got around it in 4hrs including lunch.

A good day out with the family. Unfortunately we didn t see many animals as they were all hiding but was so happy to see some new and upgraded enclosures. The facilities were clean and the food trucks were a welcome addition.

Another great morning at Perth Zoo. So much fun with younger ones excited to find animals amongst trees, grasses and their enclosures. Arrived at 9.30am and left at 1.15pm just as it was getting too hot.

A well laid out zoo, with a variety of animals from all over the world. You can tell the enclosures are kept clean but because this Zoo is in downtown some of the enclosures we're not as large as I would have liked to have seen (the bear enclosure). Well organized, well presented, warm staff and a great variety of animals.

Small enough area to cover in half a day if kids like to rush it, but plenty of animals to make it into a full day event as well - particularly with a picnic or food truck visit mid way through.

What is not to love at the zoo? The kids love it and their breeding and education programmes help ensure the ongoing survival of many species. Become a Friend of the Zoo and visit as many times as you want.

I've given Perth Zoo five star's because aesthetically it's pleasing on the eye. The animals are obviously beautifully cared for but - deep inside me I'm always uneasy with animals in confinement... The upgrades are meaningful and it's beautiful inside.

We've been a few times with guests of varying ages (3 to 83+ !) and everyone always enjoys it. The cafe is pretty good, and not over-priced. Be prepared to stay all day if you want to see everything.

Seems a bit pricey at first, but after a day out at the Zoo you'll find it is worth it.
We spent a good 2 hours there and were very entertained.
Clean, well kept, well maintained.
Great variety of animals. Really appreciate all of the conservation efforts.

It was a lovely way to spend the day. It's a small zoo and easy to walk around. The gardens were pretty and well maintained. Good variety of animals. We got there by ferry from Elizabeth Quay. Easy trip.

A zoo in the South Perth area,
It takes about 5 minutes on foot from the ferry landing to the entrance.
Of course there are koalas and kangaroos that are not so big,
I can feel Australian

Always a fun time going to the zoo!! Food is a little on the expensive side so it's a good idea to bring pre-made sandwiches and snacks!
Especially loved the lemurs and the red panda feeding which was at around 3.15pm.

Have a passion for animals? Want to feel like you're in the Danger Zone but from a safe distance? To be honest, I love animals of all species because they are all beautiful in every single way. From the noisy avarians to the silent and More
