Great day at Orana

Orana Wildlife Park was such a lovely, relaxing place to spend the day. I really liked seeing the animals in big, open spaces that felt natural and spacious. A calm and peaceful day. The park itself is easy to wander through, and the animals genuinely looked happy, healthy, and well looked after.

Run down

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.

Some great moments

Great to get up close while feeding the giraffes. The gorillas are great and we spotted some kiwi. It is very spread out and abit run down. But staff are friendly and the shuttle works Well.
