Dubbo Zoo - August 2013








































































I was told years ago that the Dubbo Zoo was a good place to see and it has been on my things to do list all of that time.  I would go as far as saying this should be on every one's MUST DO list as the zoo is very impressive both in the volume of animals that can be viewed and the set up of the zoo area.

We arrived at the zoo thinking that perhaps we should hire a buggy to get around and then was told that we could drive our Motor Home around the zoo easily and there was plenty of parking.  This was true and we drove from area to area on the zoo guide, parked the Motor Home with no problems so we could get out and walk around the various enclosures in that area.

That day the zoo cafe was not open at the half way mark but that did not worry us.  We made a cup of tea and had lunch in the Motor Home and then carried on to see the rest of the zoo.

I was very impressed with all of the zoo and the fact that we had good views of all of the animals and could get up close to some of them.  I would like to take our grandchildren there one day when they are a little older.

Some people hired the buggies which were like six seater golf buggies, some hired bikes and others walked.
It is a large viewing area and walking would only be for the most fit of people.

The Dubbo Zoo was a good experience for us and I would recommend it as a Must Do when touring.
