Ingresso geral para o zoológico de Werribee Open Range

Having been to Africa, I wasn’t sure about the kind of experience we’d be getting but I felt that Werribee exceeded my expectations. Zoos are really common in Australia and the safari experience stands out for me. The basic entry gives you access to the free safari tour. The tour guide was not only beautiful, but also humorous. The land the zoo sits on is really huge and the tour drove past quite a big area. The thing i love about this safari is that you wouldn’t miss any animals. Took us a few days to find a rhino in Africa but over here we saw the rhinos running around freely! Outside of the tour, the area is also super big and one can really spend a full day here. Weather wasn’t kind as it rained so we weren’t really in the mood. The gift shop was stocked with cute souvenirs.

Good experience however don’t arrive too early, no animals seen until after 10 however really good after that. The deluxe tour is very much worth the price, had over 90 minutes with Tour guide/driver Taylor that made the highlight of the trip.

We enjoyed our time here - though short. The free safari tour was good - you got to see amazing animals through an open sided vehicle. The private ones let you spend more time and get closer so consider that option too. We’d prob choose that if we are able to go back. The park itself is easy to walk around and see the animals. In the exhibits we got to we were able to see animals moving in all of them.

It is about good to see the animals from open range vehicle. But the trip is too short I think. Expected can explore more by that vehicle in the zoo. But so far, It's worth to do this activity once in your Melbourne visit.

Excellent zoo. Loads for kids to do.

This zoo has all the animals expected to see at a zoo; lions, zebra, giraffes and gorillas. We walked around the walks checking out the animals, until we got to the train safari station. The bus/train safari was included in the price of the ticket, and takes about 30 minutes to complete its circuit. Some of the enclosures were under maintenance so we didn't see those animals but there was still plenty to see along the way. Kids loved it, sitting at the front of the bus/train watching from the windows. We spied lots of wildlife, including elephants, zebra and various types of antelope. Toilet facilities are okay and the food prices are reasonable for ice-creams and coffees. There's no smoking throughout so you'll need to go out via the gift shop (get a stamp) to have a smoke - which I have no problem with. The zoo looks like it's kept well and the animals look happy enough.

I could not fault our slumber safari everything was perfect i loved every minute of it . The staff were very accommodating and

We visited Werribee Open Range on a very wet day, not expecting much. We took the Safari Tour with Earl. He is a fountain of knowledge, sharing lots of great info. But his Dad jokes, they are BAD 😊😉🤣 He pointed out lots of great facts and it was clear he loves animals. Thank you Earl, you really made our day. We went into the Meerkat Cafe afterwards for tea and cake. Delicious cakes and the young staff taking orders from good. However, the older lady at the coffee station is so rude, she needs some very basic customer service training. She was particularly rude to an older lady, walking away from her as the lady was speaking to her. Apart from this, we would highly recommend a visit to Werribee. Their conservation efforts are so important and your visit helps this very worthy cause.

I came in on a Senior's ticket with family members. We went straight to our ride on the Safari Bus and were glad we arrived very early. By the time we were leaving the car parking extended back over 500m from where we were and the queues for the ride grew quite long, as it was there about five buses, each with three passenger trailers. From the ride we saw the big African plains animals up close (Giraffe, Zebra, Rhino, Ostrich, plus deer, and antelope). The walking was quite strenuous around this large Zoo (you could do 5km to see everything). Some animals were off exhibition on this day (Cheetah, wild dogs). Others were out of sight (Gorillas). My best advice for catering is to bring your own food and drink. We went to the Meerkat Bistro for lunch. The Meerkats were not observed and the sandwiches were not long out of the fridge. The quality was not good and the serving size was small.

This is my favourite Victorian Zoo. What a wonderful place to spend the day with the children . The new elephant enclosure is amazing and it is a must see . It has a long walking trail to get there and the kids love the adventure of trying to spot the elephants . They have a big area for children to play , coffee shops and other amenities in that area. The Safari is always a must and it’s amazing seeing all the animals up so close . This is a wonderful zoo and one we never get bored of going to see .
