We absolutely loved our time at Panorama Gardens! The animals are amazing and such a delight to be around as they all have great little personalities. As 2 adults we had so much fun with them and for children it’s a guaranteed highlight! Ann Marie is lovely and is enthusiastic in sharing stories from life on the estate and is very easy to chat to. The gardens themselves are just incredible. They are vast so make sure you wear your walking shoes! You get rewarded with beautiful views the whole way along and you can see how much love has been put into it. You feel at peace the whole time you are at Panorama Estate and it is definitely worth the visit if you are around the peninsula area. It’s such a unique experience and one we’re eager to visit again!

We had a wonderful time in Panorama Garden yesterday.The owner have done a marvellous job on their projects.We really like all the animals there.They get to walk around the areas instead in the cages.All the animals are so healthy and friendly.
Walk up to the top, the "Top Seat",We can see the breathtaking view of Bass Strait and Port Philip Bay. The nice blue sky sunny day make the day much more enjoyable.
Thank you for the owner for showing such beautiful place with other people.

On Thursday, I went to Panorama Garden Estate and it was absolutely spectacular.
The gardens were bloody stunning and the animals were very friendly.
Definitely recommend going early so you have enough time to walk around the 55 acres or gardens and jaw dropping views.
It didn't feel like I was in Australia anymore but one minute I was in Italy then the next I was in a rainforest somewhere tropical like the Amazon Jungle.
It was amazing to see and witness the rare white kangaroos and they are definitely one of my favourite animals now.
The owner who was there at the time while the husband was at work was very lovely and loved to talk to us and had such love and care not just for the gardens but for the many animals that are wild and rescued as well.
I loved all of the animals as well and I would also recommend this place for families as it is very family friendly.
Despite having a tour of the farm animals, it wasn't a tour of the gardens but that is ok because there are tours for bigger groups and they are hoping to open a day spay which I'll definitely check out once it is up and running.
So, I would highly recommend this garden for an activity on a day trip to the Mornington Peninsula but also pop by if your a local as well but bookings are essential since it isn't open publicly to the public as it is private land.

We had a fabulous day visiting the gardens. Ann-Marie was a great host and tour guide. Loved the friendly greetings from all the animals. The couple have done some amazing landscaping of 55 acres. Well with the $30 for access to their private estate. The view from “top seat” were spectacular even on a cloudy day. Also big thank you for free range eggs

What an incredible place to visit! From the moment we drove down the driveway it was magical. The amazing host made it such an inviting and wonderful experience from the moment we stepped out of the car. We were introduced to all the special animals and learnt about how they came to be on the farm and their journeys. My son even got to bottle feed an orphaned lamb. Then we ventured into the 55 acres of landscaped gardens for a self-paced tour. It’s actually very hard to describe the beauty of the garden. We had more wow moments than I could count as we explored the beautiful lakes and gardens on this property. And the views are the best on the Peninsula! This tour is truly one of a kind!
