5.00It is a beautiful zoo. Definitely worth a visit. Animal habitats are all planned and cared for. Zoo keepers give great talks.You need a full day. You can arrive by Uber and then leave by the ferry. When you purchase general ticket just go in and show your pass.
All in all, it was a fun experience

5.00We treated our 12-year-old grandson to a day at Taronga Zoo for his birthday. He loved finding the different animals, and being out to tour guide and following the map. Great map we loved it! The restaurant area could do with a bit of renovation.

3.00Hopefully you get a driver/ tour person who speaks clearly. We had a really nice driver but I only understood about 1/3 of his conversations because of his accent . That was disappointing.
Must visit!

5.00We loved this zoo. Everything was laid out nice and easy to navigate. We got to see most animals. Lots of shade but lots walking. They had a train to take you around the zoo. (Extra fee)

5.00The Sydney zoo is a must visit. The views from the zoo are stunning. They have a great array of animals. The view that the giraffes have is out of this world!
A brilliant family day out!!

5.00Brilliant zoo! So much to see and can definitely make a full day of it here! The nocturnal animals and booking the koala experience were our favourites! Lots of lovely shade as you walk around, we went on a Sunday and it wasn’t too busy, other than the food hall which was both busy and very warm.
Great day out, best views of Sydney harbour

5.00An experience for all ages. Get a map and speak with volunteers as they will assist you make the most of your day. The bird show and seal show were standouts. Food is expensive so plan ahead. Lots of walking, shady spots to rest.
A must-do family activity

5.00A really great family day out, especially if you combine this with a boat trip across to Circular Quay. The zoo is deceptively large and you do really need a full day here. The animal shows are particularly worthwhile, educational, entertaining and a good focus on sustainability and the environment. We saw the sea-lion/seal show and also the bird show, both brilliantly presented. There are lots of public spaces where you can eat your packed lunch and fill up your water bottle. The only part we didn't enjoy was the food hall as it was absolutely packed so I would strongly recommend taking your own food. There are lots of places to grab a drink as you go round.
