    Bumping up a topic here, but what I’m about to tell you all is very important.    If you have never used them, I highly recommend. When you next visit Dreamworld, use the toilets in tiger islan

Really good area, love the design. Would have loved some up close photos today but the Tigers were feeling lazy and lying in the middle of the enclosure. 

Seeing one of the younger tigers stalking a 2m+ python that was in one of the trees on the island was pretty cool to watch though 

I have them the benefit of the doubt last Monday as it wasn't finished but now I'm not. 

This screams of we ran out of money. The unfinished gal beams for the roof, the flag green walls. Come on that's half assing it best and makes it look like a shitty zoo exhibit. 

Does the front facade still have that awkward bit of bare galvanized support sticking out at the end?

Had my first look at Tiger Island stage 2 this morning. Definitely a whole new experience being able to get so close to the tigers. Love it!

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but yours are some of the weirdest ever. This half baked exhibit is great but a world class ride down the road is awful...

I just can't make any sense of your views

I could say your opinions are even weirder djrappa, but I see no reason to stoop so low.

 

You like rollercoasters. I do too but not as much as you do. Both are perfectly ok.

But you could always and already do this in The Lair! I know, I proposed to my wife infront of Nika in the Lair caverns..

Well there you go. I must have missed that somehow!

Still. I like the new addition anyway.

No doubt folks here will appreciate a more in-depth look so i've attached a few shots. Giving the kids a chance to get up so close to the tigers is a big win, which will no doubt inspire more of the next generation to give more of a damn about conservation. If you want to see the same photos but from slightly different angles, you can checkout the rest over here.

Looks good from the outside, I can see what people are saying about the inside of the enclosure not looking great. But once the plants mature, most of the green walls will obscured. Would have been nice to see the "tree trunks" completed on the inside as well.

Was just looking through the DW website, and realised that the Tiger Photo Experience is still not avaible. Originally Stage 2 was supposed to include an upgraded facility for this. I wonder if we will see this return in the future?

Obviously the plans changed for Stage 2 (As we have seen with what they’ve done, compared to the original artists impression), but I do hope they bring it back again.
