About this tour
This short Melbourne Zoo encounter introduces visitors to the kangaroos with keeper guidance. Allow about fifteen minutes for the meeting, briefing and encounter; individual animal interactions can be brief and depend on the animals choosing to participate. Zoo entry is excluded and must be arranged separately for the same date. It is distinct from the zoo’s longer Australian Wildlife Experience and from standard zoo admission.
Make the most of your visit
Minimum age is five. Children aged five to twelve need a paying adult, with the zoo’s supervision ratios applying. Wear enclosed shoes and arrive early at the confirmed internal meeting point. Arrange zoo entry separately and allow time to reach the encounter.
