Excellent laid out zoo. Not overwhelming and something that you could see thoroughly in about 4 hours. Easy to get to.

5.00Well stocked zoo. Start at the top of the zoo and work your way down. A bus meets you at the pier to drive you there. Enjoyed all of the seal and bird shows. The zoo keepers are very enthusiastic and informative. Not overwhelming like the SanDiego Zoo but just right to see everything on a leisurely fashion. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit
Great way to spend a morning/afternoon in Sydney

5.00Quick ferry ride over through the harbor was a fun way to see other sides of the Sydney harbor. Taronga is a beautiful zoo with lush enclosures & active animals, definitely would recommend.
Great for visitors to Australia

5.00I had two cousins from Europe visiting. The whole process from booking, to claiming tickets at the wharf, to arriving at the zoo was smooth and easy. Staff were amazing. We went to the zoo and they were so impressed, (as was I), with the layout, and the ability to get up and close to Australian animals. They said “wow” over and over and over again. I would definitely recommend booking it as ferry with zoo entry as a package.
Highly recommend for an easy 1/2 day excursion!

5.00Loved the zoo. One of the better zoos we've been to (and we go as many as we can). Only advice, is pay attention to the ferry times. I missed the 2nd to last ferry (husband already waiting on me). Then we had a choice of waiting an hour (or something like that), or paying for the other ferry.

5.00A lot of walking. Excellent care of the animals. Ferry ride was nice, but the delay between drop off and pick up needs to have more options. When we were finished there was an hour and a half wait for the next ferry.
