Awesome place so much to see and do
Great to see all the animals out, amazing friendly staff and a perfect experience. Thanks!
Really sad, barely see animals went around 1, also some animal encounters are so far you need binoculars to see them. Zoo is run down, needs a massive upgrade haven’t been back since I was in primary school, and it looks the same from 20 years ago except run down. Food was good, keepers were awesome, but the animals seem depressed, tiger feeding time was sad, literally just chucked a box of meat for them to rip open.
A fantastic day out at Orana, luckily the weather played a part, great value for money

A perfect midwinter day out
Impressed by the attentive, informative staff at the lion feeding and African Painted dogs feeding times. Spent 3hrs walking around and could have stayed another hour to have seen everything.
