Boarding the coach at the pier, you will travel approximately one hour from Brisbane to Queensland's Sunshine Coast for a visit to Australia Zoo. Once home to television's late Crocodile Hunter, Steve Irwin, it is often referred to as the ultimate zoo experience.
Upon your arrival, a friendly docent will welcome you and provide a map that highlights the various animal venues and shows. Your time is your own here, so you can explore at the pace that suits you. Come face to face with majestic tigers or leaping lemurs, snakes, birds and endemic Australian animals, such as koalas, wombats and kangaroos.
You may want to set aside time to take in the famous Croc Show -- a star attraction of Australia Zoo which takes place in the Crocoseum. Featuring menacing and awesome creatures, this show will entertain as well as educate you in the ways of the crocodile, all in a manner that's bound to have you laughing, clapping and hollering, "Crikey!"
See a very special Aussie icon-- the cuddly koala. There maybe an opportunity to have a souvenir photograph taken holding a koala (at your own expense) however this is subject to availability.
Purchase lunch (at your own expense) at an on-site restaurant before bidding farewell to your newfound critter friends and returning to the ship.
Please note:
Wear comfortable walking shoes. Travel time to and from Australia Zoo is approximately 1.5 hours each way.
