Check out giraffes, rhinos, zebras, meerkats and cheetahs at the African Savannah, and majestic tigers, red pandas and Sumatran elephants in South-East Asia, and so much more!

Watch the world-famous Wildlife Warriors show, with all the jaw-snapping action of crocodiles and swooping birds LIVE in the Crocoseum, where you learn about vital conservation efforts.

Cool off at The Laughing Frog Water Park, a splash play area open to all guests with spectacular wildlife sculptures! Explore the world's busiest Wildlife Hospital, where you can watch vets saving endangered Australian animals.

In line with Viator's animal welfare policy, our product does not include physical contact with animals except under the supervision of zoo officials, where animals can disengage from contact at will.

What Can You Expect?

Please ensure you check your pick up time and place for the tour date, and be at the meeting point on time. For the sake of other customers, we cannot wait for late arrivals.

Due to recent construction in the CBD area, the bus may be delayed. We seek your understanding and patience, and our driver will ensure that all the customers waiting are picked up.

Occasionally, due to the traffic, the driver is unable to stop directly outside the hotel entrance, but will stop as close as possible, and will make sure to collect the customers.

AUSTRALIA ZOO TICKETS:
Our driver will check everyone in at the zoo with his passenger manifest, so you do not need to print your voucher.

• Please note our bus does not have a toilet on board
• Bus starts at the Gold Coast travelling north to Brisbane CBD for picking up Brisbane customers from a few hotels in CBD area
• It depends on that day’s bookings what time we arrive at the zoo, but we must leave the zoo by 4pm, due to evening traffic, so the driver may ask you to meet BEFORE 4pm.

NOTE: The bus stops at Tangalooma Wharf, before heading to the zoo (return journey as well)

Long bus ride but was definitely worth it to see the amazing Australia Zoo! Close up and personal experience with wildlife. Driver was prompt and did his best to get us there in a timely way despite all the traffic.

Late picking us up, dumped us off the bus far away from our hotel after the tour was over. The bus was 45 minutes late picking us up in Brisbane. The driver claimed he was late due to traffic. I’m from Los Angeles; Brisbane traffic is like driving on a country road. The zoo itself was terrific, even though our time was shortchanged due to the driver’s lateness. On the way back, instead of returning to Brisbane by the same route he left, the driver found a spot in downtown Brisbane across the river from where he picked us up, surrounded by skyscrapers so we could not get our bearings by comparing the location of the sun to the time in our watch, stopped the bus, stood up, and ordered the Brisbane passengers to get off the bus. I suppose I should be thankful that he didn’t toss us into the river or leave us by the side of the road somewhere along the way. Fortunately one of our iPhones still had enough power left after an afternoon taking pictures at the zoo. So with some difficulty, we determined our location in Google Maps and concocted a route through the Botanical Gardens and across the Goodwill Bridge. We are well accustomed to finding our way in unfamiliar surroundings, but the couple who was with us was not, and was hysterical during the trek back to the other side of the river. They barely spoke English and the walk back was strenuous for them. Judging by the other negative reviews of the transport, this is just how JPT intends to operate. Nevertheless the zoo itself was worthwhile; the staff there was pleasant and helpful. My favorite part was the birds who would try to steal our lunches. They were delightful!

Holding a Koala and feeding the Kangaroo’s! The Croc Show was awesome and we were lucky to see Robert Irwin!

A very long ride, over 3 hours each way without any toilet stop. The zoo itself was okay, just a typical zoo. Nothing worth spending an entire day for.

Buses need maintenance, driver needs some manners, they need to communicate more with the customers and between themselves
