Kuranda Rainforestation Nature Park Ticket (BNP)

A tourist experience that allows you, however, to enter the rainforest safely (aboard a World War II vehicle), to admire typical and prehistoric animals in the wild park, and to attend typical indigenous shows. It doesn't happen every day to try a boomerang or to attend a spear hunting demonstration, to hear the sound of Aboriginal instruments and their dances. Therefore it is recommended

We booked a day package that included a visit to the Rainforestation Nature Park. Unfortunately, the park was far too touristy for our taste. However, I was really shocked by the animal husbandry. A female dingo was sitting alone in an enclosure that was, in my opinion, far too small. The koalas were also kept individually; their enclosures seemed cold and not very natural. The tree kangaroo was also housed alone. I found the female wombat particularly sad, as she ran the same circle in the enclosure incessantly and had no way to retreat from the visitors. If that is supposed to count as animal-friendly keeping, I am deeply disappointed. I will definitely not visit this facility again and cannot recommend it either, as I neither can nor want to support such a way of keeping animals.

Fantastic, Educational day out for all ages. The army duvk is great fun the boomerang throwing is interesting and competitive 😁. Who can get it to return .

What can you say about the Rainforest Nature Park when there are more shops than butterflies? If you want to see the rainforest, go a little further north and discover the incredible Daintree Rainforest. I enjoyed the historic Train to Kuranda and the skyrail overlooking the rainforest. Without asking our consent, you are photographed (for example, at the exit of the skyrail and on the boat, as I noticed) for commercial purposes: to sell you your photos! For me, this is unacceptable. There are always shops for every activity, but here, the number is unbelievable at every turn. You can get a photo with a koala or a reptile by paying!! I don't understand how a country can tolerates the use of "wild" animals, or should they be considered domestic animals? Furthermore, the koalas are not native; they don't live in the rainforests. This activity is a supermarket and a cash cow. I regret going there.

Honestly I’m saddened by the treatment of animals here! There was a huge crocodile in a very small enclosure and his mouth was being wedged open by a keeper with a stick to show the tourists its teeth (this is a living creature not a toy for entertainment). The koalas have near to no space on a concrete floor with a few tiny trees. And the poor dingo all on her own in a tiny space. In you have a love for animals please do not go here. I understand the park follows the Queensland regulations on animal welfare however these regulations are not good enough. I have been to many zoos and sanctuary’s that value their animals. This place does not seem to at all. DO NOT GO

Explore the Australian rainforest by riding in an army duck boat driving through the densely wooded forest and then taking to the river and lake in the same vehicle. Your guide will tell you about the rainforest in and its flora and fauna. You also see a Pamagirri aboriginal dance performance with dancers in aboriginal dress accompanied by a man playing the diggery doo. They’ll show a spear throwing demonstration and a boomerang demonstration followed by you taking a turn at throwing a boomerang yourself. There is also a nature parks with koalas, dingos and cassowary birds. Lots of fun and loaded with info.

A lovely relaxed day out seeing animals in their habitat and a really good aboriginal experience. Staff were lovely.

We loved the up close and personnel way you could view the animals! Loved the aboriginal dancing and info on the duck boat.

Shocking We paid for tix online Tix did not come through Couldn't get in Spoilt our 30th wedding anniversary trip Would like a refund We travelled from Melbourne

Visited on a tour via Tropic Wings. The animal park distressed me. A koala with her joey crossed her arms and bowed her head to protect it when she heard people coming. Photos holding koalas and other animals. If you research its been shown that it distresses the animals and some places have banned it!! The rest of the animals looked unhappy at best. Duck Tour which is why i chose to come here is very poor. A short land track and a ride around a small lake. No animals just plants. Very dated Tourist Attraction, different from the other tours Ive been on in Oz, where its about nature and natural environments for the animals . Coaches full of tourists turning up. This park is totally unnecessary. Its just a money making tourist effort with no real consideration for nature and animals. Couldnt wait to leave and regret going. Left with sad images in my head not what I want from a day trip.
