Needs more signage so...

3.00Needs more signage so people are not walking in circles. Plus a lot of the animals weren't out. Didn't see much of what I came to see.

5.00The entrance was easy, we went through without having to wait in line to buy a ticket. Our tickets were scanned and we went through without any hassle.
Not worth it

1.00Probably the worst zoo in Aus Don’t waste your money, if you wanna see some animals, go to other places like Symbio that has a lot of them; you’re lucky if you see any animals here. If it’s the view that you’re after, there are plenty other spots to see the beautiful harbour
Sad animals. Bad animal welfare
Chervv,,Jan 11, 2026

1.00I noticed that many animals appeared to be kept alone and seemed isolated. I sincerely hope the zoo will review its animal welfare policies and ensure all animals are treated humanely. The enclosures felt quite small, and one of the bears looked very thin, which was heartbreaking to see. This experience left me feeling sad. I want to teach my child to love and respect animals, and the first lesson I want to give him is that animals should not be treated this way.
Outing.

Visit to the Taronga Zoo in Sydney, Australia
Duane K,,Jan 7, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00We have recently visited several Zoos, but the best of all was the Taronga Zoo in Sydney. We took the ferry from Circular Quay to the Zoo and back, across the Sydney Harbor, which was a great experience in itself. From the pier at the Zoo, we took a bus to the main entry, so almost all the walking we did after that was downhill. On our visit, we emphasized the native Australian fauna. We loved the aviary, and also the opportunity to see a number of animals we weren't able to see in the wild: koalas, wombats, echidnas, a platypus, and a Tasmanian devil, as well as different species of kangaroos, emus, etc. We saw part of a very informative keeper's talk on the Dingo, and we really enjoyed a free bird show, featuring black and white cockatoos, a hawk, an owl, and a male red junglefowl, among other birds, hosted by some very skilled young bird handlers. This experience will be of considerable interest to visitors of all ages.
Amazing experience!!...

5.00We went to Taronga zoo on the recommendation of our daughter who has visited previously and highly recommended it. She was right! It is a wonderful facility highlighting animals from all over the world, the unique wildlife of Australia, and the efforts for conservation and restoration of the animal population. We visited the Australian animal section as well as participated in feeding the giraffes. The giraffe feeding was a ton of fun and appropriate for adults and children. The display of animals was well done and made it easy to view most animals in in habitats they were comfortable in. We highly recommend this zoo not only for the content but the people I feel this star of our visit. Was" kiwi Rebecca" at the gift shop who not only explained some of the unique activities but also recognized us later when we went back to the gift shop. She is a wonderful representative of the zoo!
Amazing Views and Zoo, Just Crowded

5.00Highly recommended, with some of the best views of Sydney! A really cute souvenir shop and an amazing zoo. It was super crowded when we visited though—perhaps entry numbers could be better controlled.
Don't trust Viator

1.00Do not trust Viator. Their QR code did not work at the zoo and even with proof from zoo, they did not refund anything and blamed the zoo.
