We would like to thank the staff and animals at Coffs Coast Wildlife Sanctuary for an amazing day. Everyone was friendly and professional, from the front desk lady to the trainers. The presentations were informative and well delivered. Our encounter with Zippy and his trainer was the highlight of our day. The experience was absolutely incredible and exceeded my expectations. I would recommend visiting this park for all ages, 5 stars.
