Directions: Take train (Midlands Line) to Bassendean Station, from the station, take bus 955 or 956 and alight at Lord Street before Youle Road (well, the best way is to tell the driver where you're going and he'll let you know when to alight, since there's no bus announcement or significant landmark)
Cost: 25AUD
After you alight at the bus stop, walk towards the Whiteman Park entrance, and wait for the shuttle bus to bring you to the village where the Caversham Wildlife Park is located. The first bus only comes at 1030, if you are feeling adventurous, you can take the walking trail to walk into the park. It was quite a long walk (20-30min) but it was really interesting as I saw several wild kangeroos on my way in!
Okay so, when you are at the Caversham Wildlife Park, the few things you should not miss are the Farm show, the koalas visitation timings, the kangeroos area where you can walk through and get really close to the kangeroos. I was not so interested in birds but there were a huge range of birds display as well. Oh and I really love the area named the Molly's Farm! The farm show was really interesting! It includes a demonstration of sheep shearing, whip cracking and other surprises!
Since you're visiting Caversham Wildlife Park, you should walk around the 'village' too! There are a few museums like the revolution museum which shows the change in the transportation in Western Australia, there's also a tractor museum. There's also a 'train station' which allows you to take an old-style train for a fee of 10AUD.
