Schön angelegter Park mit interessanten Tieren und engagierte Mitarbeiter. Auch die Geschichte über die Erweiterungsstufen zeigt ein großes Engagement der Organisatoren/Conservation.
Thank you so much for your review Jürgen.
We had a fantastic day out at Orana Wildlife Park! I went with my family, and a friend, and there was truly something for everyone. It’s such a well-laid-out park with plenty of space for the little one to run around and see the animals up close. Our toddler absolutely loved it, and it was a perfect way to spend the day together. The highlights for us were definitely the lions, gorilla's and the giraffe feeding. It’s a brilliant spot for a family group—highly recommend it for a fun and enjoyable outdoor day in Christchurch.
The best time is to come after lunch time as the animal feeding activities start at 1pm. It was exhausting but fun.
Felt awful paying to shit this shit show. Animals look sad. Terrible dirty enclosures, half enclosures empty. Gorillas looked depressed sat in a concrete block and the poor lonely tiger pacing up and down. Will never ever go back or recommend. Needs closing down. One star for café

Wir haben den Park sehr genossen. Vor allem die Giraffenfütterung und das Kiwi Haus war unser Highlight! Es war eine schöne Erfahrung!
