Melbourne Zoo

Melbourne Zoo

Melbourne Zoo is an easy tram ride north of the city, past the Victoria Markets (basically, if I can find it, anyone can!) and almost into the suburbs. 22 hectares of animal amazingness then lay before you to be explored at your own speed and leisure.



The zoo is massive! There are too many animals to count, shows to see, kiosks to eat at, parks and quiet areas dotted around the site, and zoo keepers to answer any and every question you may have about their friends. I visited the zoo when I was 8 and was enchanted by the butterfly house and still am. It is hot, calm and peaceful having butterflies dance through the sky for your viewing pleasure.



Many of the other animals are cheeky and playful and I think this is a wonderful tour for people of all ages and families. It is a lovely day out.
