This was the best, most rewarding day of my life! I managed to visit Edgar's Mission when I was in Melbourne for a holiday. It’s a 1-2 hour car ride from the city but it’s so worth it. We did a free 1.5 hr tour of the sanctuary and got to visit the most beautiful animals ever. The sanctuary was managed so well and people were so kind! They reminded us multiple times to not touch the animals unless they come to u, I loved how in everything we did, the animal needs came first. There were some free roaming animals too that followed us for the entire tour. If you are visiting Melbourne, definitely recommend visiting Edgar’s mission. They have a vegan mini kitchen too and serve brownies, puffs etc. it was really yum! My fav was the rocky road cake :) Please note there is no direct transportation back to the city from the sanctuary. My sis and I were basically stranded until a kind volunteer drove us an hour out of her way to the train station. Whilst waiting for the volunteer to finish her work, my sis and I helped out at the sanctuary by raking up leaves around the sanctuary. Truly unforgettable experience. Can’t post too many things here but hit me up if you’d like to see more pics of the sanctuary and the animals / find out more!
