Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary: Entry Ticket + River Cruise from Brisbane

Embark on a delightful journey that combines the charm of Brisbane’s cityscape with the natural beauty of its surrounding wildlife. Starting from downtown Brisbane, board a comfortable river cruise vessel that provides stunning views of the city's iconic landmarks and the tranquil waters of the Brisbane River. As you sail downstream, enjoy the scenic transition from the bustling urban environment to the serene, leafy riverbanks, accompanied by interesting commentary about the city's history and significant sites. Upon arrival at Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary, you will have approximately three hours to explore the world's first and largest koala sanctuary. Here, you can meet and take photos with koalas, hand-feed kangaroos and wallabies, and learn about Tasmanian devils and wombats through informative exhibits and keeper talks. The sanctuary also offers daily shows, including bird of prey flight displays, sheepdog demonstrations, and wildlife presentations, providing both educational and entertaining insights into Australian wildlife. After a fulfilling day of animal encounters and activities, reboard your vessel for a relaxing return cruise to downtown Brisbane. The entire excursion lasts about 5-6 hours, including cruising time and the sanctuary visit. The package typically includes round-trip river cruise tickets and sanctuary entrance, with additional costs for activities like koala holding photos.
