Om denne aktiviteten

Taronga Zoo is one of Sydney’s top attractions and is loved by locals and tourists alike. Located on the magnificent harbor, just 12 minutes by ferry with views of iconic landmarks this is truly a zoo with a view!

Arrive at the zoo and take the Sky Safari gondola to the top entrance. Fly above the Zoo as it skims the canopy of the Asian rainforest inhabited by Taronga's orangutans and glide across the mysterious riverscape of AGL Amazonia, home to the Zoo's South American animals.

Meet your zoo keeper and start your in-depth Wild Australia Experience that will bring you close to the animals and where you will learn about the work of the zoo keepers. Learn about the unique Australian animals and how they are cared for at the zoo, go behind the scenes into restricted access areas, see how the food is prepared in the 'animal kitchen,' and explore the world of the wallabies and kangaroos.

You will get to enter the Australian bushland and the underground world of the endangered Southern hairy-nosed wombat, discover the mysteries of the platypus, and explore the nocturnal house for a close encounter with the normally shy and elusive wildlife which only venture out at night.

At the end of your tour you'll be served a light snack at Harbourview Cafe and receive a souvenir gift.

Admission to Taronga Zoo is included so you are free to spend the day exploring the many exhibits and shows before and after your tour. Join the regularly scheduled keeper talks to learn more about Taronga Zoo's wide variety of animals.

Wow.... I cannot truly say enough good things about my experience at the Taronga Zoo!!! It started off quite questionably, though, when it was a fog-filled morning with the ferries not running. Not to be deterred from my plan, I arrived via Uber to the ferry drop-off point to follow the itinerary to an empty ferry dock with a lone zoo employee. She directed me to the sky-tram, and up I went into the foggy abyss. When I got to the Info Desk, they could not find my reservation, and the tour had left early for a private reservation. Short version, they had no one to give the tour, but were determined to make it right. After about 10 minutes of wrangling and the volunteers chatting with me to pass the time, the zoo folks put together an experience that likely was far better than the tour could ever be :-) I was escorted around the Australia native section of the zoo with a lovely volunteer, Lynn, and was also briefly handed off to an amazing zoo-keeper, Grace. Both zoo folks did an amazing job letting me take photos and learn about the unique animals of Australia. I cannot thank the Taronga Zoo enough for an unforgettable experience that could have been a major disappointment. It is something I will treasure for a lifetime!

It was a very good experience. It gives you the opportunity of interacting with some animal you don't have access to during an usual visit. The guide was very nice and knowledgeable.

Absolutely fabulous 2+ hours up close and personal with the Australian animals. I got to carry an echidna in a pail back to its enclosure and a koala sniffed my hat. Our guide was relaxed and casual, flexible and very open to questions. Better than I expected! Small group too. Would do it again!

We spent the day at the zoo for my daughters 16th birthday. The animals were very active. I was very pleased with the size of their habitats and how well taken care of they are. We upgraded and did a behind the scenes tour which taught us more about the zoo and their animals. Made for a great birthday adventure
