Kuranda VIP package is the ultimate experience
We enjoyed our Kuranda by Design experience very much. It was great to be the first visitor to birdworld in the morning and to feed the various kinds of parrots. It literally just took a few seconds until the first Macaws sat on our shoulders. After the guided tour through birdworld, we continued to the Koala Gardens on another guided tour. We were allowed to pet a snake and a blue-tongue lizard. And of course a photo with a Koala named Sebastian was included as well. After this fantastic experience, we returned to birdworld to spend some more time there. Later in the afternoon, we went to the Koala Gardens once more. When the other tourists left, we could again spend some time with the Kangaroos, Wallabies and Pademelons and even saw some with Joeys in their pouch. Definitively recommend this exclusive experience. And once more a big thank you to the fantastic team at birdworld and Koala Gardens.
Kuranda Railway, Koala Garden
Koala Garden was a great place to photograph koalas. It was just a shame I couldn't hold him. The kangaroos were also fed free and conscientious.

Koalas, Wallabies, Butterflies and even a Black Swan
The Kuranda Wildlife Experience is all it is advertised to be. The setting is up in the tropical mountains above Cairns. We enjoyed the Koala Gardens, Bird World, and the Butterfly Sanctuary. In the Koala Gardens we were able to get up close to and pet Koalas, hand feed Wallabies, and watch a wide array of Australian animals both plentiful in the country and endangered. In the Butterfly Sanctuary we felt fully immersed in a world of color and grace. The docents available to explain the delicacies of butterflies as well as their strengths really enhanced the experience. But it was truly amazing to have the butterflies land on our shoulders, heads, and arms. Bird World felt very open-air. The variety, colors, and personalities of the birds was quite engaging. Many were very willing to climb onto a gently extended hand or even find themselves comfortably perched on a shoulder or even a head. The array of birds in seemingly natural habitats, including their ability to fly around freely, was truly a highlight. We highly recommend this experience.
Awesome Experience
This place exceeded my expectations! As an Australian tourist, I wasn't super excited at the idea of seeing Koalas for $20 but we purchased the combo pass which included entry to this place. The Koala Gardens actually have heaps of native Australian animals including Kangaroos, Wallabies, Snakes, Wombats and Crocodiles. We were also able to feed the Wallabies which was really cool. I really enjoyed visiting and would highly recommend for anyone visit Kuranda.
Great fun
I loved my visit to the Koala Gardens! There were so many animals and reptiles to see; I was lucky enough to get a koala cuddling photo with little Kiki which was so fun! The staff were so pleasant and spammed my phone with photos of myself and Kiki, as well as taking a professional photo for me. I loved being able to interact with the wallabies and hand feed them.
