Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary Tickets

My wife and I really loved visiting Tasmania and this wildlife sanctuary! First off, the people/staff were really nice and welcoming and set great expectations about everything the admission price includes. We also didn’t realize how many kangaroos the property has or how much interaction we’d have with them, but we were blown away! To us, it was way better than the Taronga Zoo in Sydney. In addition to all that, they are the only wildlife sanctuary in Hobart and saved over 17,000 wild animals last year! (Apparently, animals getting hit by cars happens often in Tasmania.) They offer free daily tours where you get to walk around with a knowledgeable staff member and learn about Tassie Devils (of course), wombats (which are really adorable), echidnas (which look like cute little porcupines) and other local animals. They offer a little snack area for lunch as well. What a cool, important place! Will definitely come back if we ever return to Hobart! If you love learning about animals and seeing kangaroos, wombats and devils up close, go there! By the way, for anyone contemplating how to get there without booking a tour or private shuttle, we took an Uber from the Cambridge/airport area for around $58 AUD each way and that included up to 4 passengers. We did have a little trouble getting an Uber from the Sanctuary, but we just walked from there to the nearby town of Brighton (which is about a 20-30-minute walk) and we where able to order an Uber from there back to Cambridge.

Can touch and learn the story of those beautiful wild animals , feeding kangaroos was a lovley experience.

Amazing care shown for the animals and very knowledgeable keepers. Great to know your entrance fee goes to supporting rescue services.

The kids loved feeding the kangaroos and the guided tour was great to learn about the injured animal they housed before they are sent back in the wild.

It was hard to find the wombats because the long pen with Winnie wasn't labelled and it didn't come out until we were just about to give up looking for it and we heard there was another wombat further down somewhere but didn't see any signage down near the bootom of the larger kangaroo area

My husband & I took our 5yo nephew to Bonorong for his birthday. We live near Hobart but hadn't been there in a couple of years & were pleasantly surprised to see how much they've expanded the sanctuary. Some of the paths on outer areas are quite uneven & my nephew tripped & nearly fell (my husband caught him), so tread carefully! Love the new kangaroo enclosure, as well. We had to dodge several muddy patches to get to them, but it was worth it. I was also quite happy to see that their (tiny yet very capable) cafe stand is now 100% plant-based. Their hot chips were great & the 'lam' korma was delicious! Plus, tasty coffee. We all had a wonderful, leisurely time, all the animals look happy & well cared for, & I highly recommend a visit to everyone!

We arrived a bit early and they welcomed us in with big smiles and so much info :) kids absolutely loved seeing all the animals and birds, their guided tour is a must to attend (included in the ticket price)

The kangaroo feeding was not ip to the mark as expected as the place was already full with food.

The best animal sanctuary I've ever visited. Amazing food too!! Worth every penny, I'll definitely be back to see the beautiful Devils and all their friends :)

An amazing facility! So good to see wildlife cared for and nurtured in a wonderful atmosphere. The tour was also very informative.
