Make family time great. Take home big memories. Plan an unforgettable adventure.
COVID-19 Update
Due to the restrictions of COVID-19 the Wellington Caves is unable to undertake its usual volume of tours and so will not be included in the Great Big Adventure Pass, until such time as it is able to operate to the degree that is reflective of its true visitor experience.
The Pass price has been reduced to reflect the removal of the Wellington Caves entry and still provides the amazing 20% discount across 3 exciting attractions, ensuring that planning your next holiday to the Dubbo Region is easy and packed full of fun, adventure and discovery.
Once the COVID-19 restrictions have been lifted to a degree that the Wellington Caves can operate more regular caves tour groups, they will be readmitted to the Pass and will gladly welcome Pass holders to the amazing caves systems of Wellington.
What if you could buy one ticket, in one transaction that gave you entry to four unforgettable experiences? Holidays should be enjoyable, so turn off the stress and dial up the fun with the Dubbo Region Great Big Adventure Pass!
The Great Big Adventure Pass is a multi-ticket to Taronga Western Plains Zoo, Old Dubbo Gaol, the NEW Royal Flying Doctor Visitor Experience and the Wellington Caves.
