Explore three of Tropical North Queensland’s most beloved wildlife attractions in one unforgettable, value-packed adventure — the Great Australian Wildlife Experience. This flexible self-drive package grants you access to:
Hartley’s Crocodile Adventures
Nestled between Cairns and Port Douglas, Hartley’s sits amid the World Heritage-listed Wet Tropics rainforest. Here, you’re guaranteed crocodile sightings — including thrilling presentations and a scenic boat cruise on Hartley’s Lagoon. Plus, engage with native wildlife through presentations featuring snakes, quolls, cassowaries, and koalas.
Kuranda Koala Gardens
Located in Kuranda’s Heritage Markets, this boutique wildlife park offers rarities like koalas, wombats, quokkas, wallabies, freshwater crocodiles, and more. You may even get to hold a koala — an experience cherished by visitors. Don’t miss the “Nocturnal Wonders” exhibit, featuring bilbies, gliders, and other fascinating nighttime natives.
Birdworld Kuranda
Wander through one of Australia’s largest free-flight aviaries in a richly landscaped rainforest setting. This is your chance to be surrounded by a vivid array of native and exotic birds, from regal cassowaries to rainbow lorikeets.
This package offers unbeatable flexibility and value, allowing you to explore at your own pace — one day for Hartley’s, another for the Kuranda parks. The pass is valid for five days from whichever date you start.
It’s perfect for families, bird watchers, wildlife lovers, and anyone curious to experience the best of Australia’s fauna in accessible, immersive ways. Plus, each park features unique activities like boat cruises, animal close-ups, and educational presentations that make every visit memorable.
Plan your adventure: Start with Hartley’s for a full morning or afternoon (3–4 hours), then enjoy shorter visits (30–45 minutes) at each Kuranda park. Discover the wild heart of Tropical North Queensland — all in one great package.
