Hand-feed kangaroos, hold a koala, and come nose-to-nose with wombats and Tasmanian devils at one of Australia's finest private wildlife parks — an intimate, unhurried encounter that zoos simply cannot replicate.
What to expect
Set in the lush Swan Valley just 30 minutes from Fremantle, Caversham houses more than 200 native species across beautifully landscaped grounds. The open kangaroo and wallaby paddock lets you walk freely among mobs and hand-feed at close range. Scheduled keeper talks — wombats, Tasmanian devils, reptiles — run throughout the day and add expert context. The koala cuddle session (pre-bookable) is the undisputed highlight: a genuine, unhurried hold with a professional photo included. Allow 2–3 hours.
Good to know
Located in Whiteman Park, Swan Valley — ~30 min from Fremantle by private transfer or rideshare. Open daily 9:00 am–5:00 pm. Book the koala experience in advance at cavershamwildlife.com.au as sessions sell out. Combine with a Swan Valley wine lunch for a seamless full-morning excursion before returning to port.
