- Ximena R2 contributionsThe sanctuary is a good place to go with your family or friends, my experience was amazing. They care the animals and protect them very well. You can live the experience if seeing the hospital, participate in different activities and learn a lot about environmental care.Written March 4, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- wintercolleenCanberra, Australia224 contributionsThe mall was very clean and easy too read the signs. Great atmosphere and well space out.

- Miriam B13 contributionsRides are fun but there are not a lot of 'thrill' rides - this is a great park for little kids. THe best rides were the Leviathan and the Storm Coaster (REscue Boats? not sure of the name.. but the roller coaster that has STORM written around it) - we went on a busy Sunday but still no more than 20 minute or so waits - we got to do everything we wanted.Written March 5, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Daniel AAuckland, New Zealand30 contributionsWas a fun visit. Good mix of rides and shows. Cuddling the Koala and the tiger show were great. Some of the rides were down for maintenance which took away a bit from the experience but overall worked as a good visit for us.Written December 13, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Андрей В9 contributionsWarner’s Bros Movie World is my favourite entertainment park in Australia, but this visit was a large disappointment. Half of the attractions and rides are closed, and half of the retail shops did not have working air conditioning – very disappointing. Very rude staff at the stunt show, saving on customers buy not offering any proper bags when you buy in shops – even for large items, 5d movie – quite unfriendly staff again. I have a feeling that after a safety failure of the major competitor – Dream World, Movie World management decided not to invest money into customer services.
On the bright side is the atmosphere is still there, some rides are great, very good selection of souvenirs and memorabilia.
My relatives spent $200 each for a week’s pass and were deeply disappointed by an extremely low of working rides and cold and disinterested customer serviceWritten February 22, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It’s such a lovely walk and the waterways are gorgeous
And even better if you come and do the glow worms at the right time of year
Our kids still enjoy it - even as teenagers

It doesn’t feel safe.Written February 22, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
