Australia Zoo Offers Rare Tree Kangaroo Encounter For Wildlife Enthusiasts


Visitors can now enjoy a unique wildlife experience at Australia Zoo with an exclusive Tree Kangaroo keeper encounter featuring Simbu, a rare and fascinating tree-dwelling marsupial. The 15-minute session gives guests the opportunity to step inside his enclosure, offer favourite treats, and observe his distinctive features and gentle nature under the guidance of an experienced Zoo Keeper. The carefully managed interaction provides an unforgettable chance to connect with one of the world’s most intriguing animals.


The educational encounter goes beyond a simple animal meeting, offering valuable insights into Simbu’s behaviour, diet, and the specialised conservation programs supporting Tree Kangaroo survival. Guests can learn about the challenges these remarkable species face in the wild and discover how dedicated wildlife efforts help protect biodiversity. The experience encourages a deeper understanding of animal care, conservation, and the importance of preserving unique species for future generations.


Designed for visitors aged eight and above, the encounter provides a safe and respectful environment where guests can appreciate the animal while prioritising its wellbeing. Children under 16 must be accompanied by a paying adult, and zoo entry tickets are required separately. The session is structured to ensure a calm atmosphere, allowing participants to learn about Tree Kangaroos without disturbing their natural behaviours.


This special encounter at Australia Zoo offers more than just a memorable photo opportunity; it creates a meaningful connection between visitors and wildlife. By spending time with Simbu, guests can develop a greater appreciation for conservation and the incredible diversity of the natural world. Whether visiting with family or exploring the zoo as a wildlife enthusiast, this experience promises an inspiring and educational highlight.

I couldn't recommend this wildlife park anymore. It was the highlight of our trip to Wexford. With a fabulous variety of animals to see such as goats, macaques, lemurs, meerkats, monkeys, rabbits, snakes, alpacas, llamas and pigs. They also have a fantastic on-site café that has an indoor bouncing castle for the kiddies and delicious food on offer, such as homemade soup, paninis, wraps, pancakes, chicken goujons and slow cooked roast beef. The food was so tasty and such a cosy vibe in the café, we'll definitely be back!

We are regular visitors to Secret Valley. The kids love it here. And the food in the cafe is delicious. They have a big bouncy obstacle course indoors too. We just attended the Halloween event and it was brilliant fun. Well spread out and the kids had a ball meeting the witches, picking out their pumpkins and loved the tractor ride back to the entrance. Highly recommend all year round. Well done team!!

We had a great visit here. We are a family of 4 and all had a great time. The animal area is not too big and their is also a woodland walk. The animals are well cared for and all the staff are very knowledgeable about the animals they care for. Every staff member was lovely and happy to answer any questions we had. We will certainly visit again!
