BURSTING WITH FUN ACTIVITIES AND BUSTLING ATTRACTIONS, THIS REGIONAL NSW TOWN TICKS ALL THE BOXES
Family destinations to please everyone Discover DUBBO!

Finding a holiday destination that keeps everyone happy can be tricky. From pleasing the little ones to fulfilling the foodie or satisfying the history buff, it's rare everyone gets what they want. Cue a trip to Dubbo. Just a five-hour drive from Sydney, this regional city has it all when it comes to family-friendly fun.

FOR THE ANIMAL LOVER 

If there's one thing Dubbo is famous for, it's Taronga Western Plains Zoo and there's a reason this attraction is such a hit with both big and little kids. Forget everything you know about your usual zoo, this next-level interactive experience sees you bike, golf buggy or drive around 300 hectares of bushland to encounter more than 500 animals, ranging from adorably playful meerkats to exotic Sumatran tigers.

Love giraffes? The Giraffe Encounter is a must, letting you handfeed a horde of hungry friends. The same goes for the Savannah Safari, where you'll climb into a truck and drive among free-roaming rhinos, zebras and giraffes (taronga.org.au/dubbo-zoo). If you want to get even closer to the animals, head to Quentin Park, where friendly owner Amee will introduce you to the fun and fabulous 130 alpacas and llamas taking up residence on her farm. Book in for a meet and greet and you'll be swarmed by them (Amee knows all their names!) as they enjoy a feed and a pat (quentinparkalpacas.com).

Don't get caught out at Old Dubbo Gaol!
