Search in Taronga ZooMay 09 - May 10 • 2 guests

Taronga Zoo sits on a hillside overlooking Sydney Harbour and houses over 4,000 animals from 350 species. The zoo opened in 1916 and is known for its Australian native section - koalas, platypuses, echidnas, and kangaroos in an open walk-through enclosure. The Sky Safari cable car (included with admission) runs from the wharf entrance to the top of the hill, offering views across the harbour to the Opera House and CBD skyline.

Adult admission is AUD 51 online (AUD 57 at the gate). The zoo runs keeper talks and feeding sessions throughout the day - the seal show and the bird show at the amphitheatre with the harbour as a backdrop are highlights. Allow 3-4 hours for a thorough visit. The fastest way to reach Taronga Zoo is the F2 ferry from Circular Quay, which takes 12 minutes.

Pro Tip: Enter at the top entrance (via the Sky Safari from the ferry wharf) and walk downhill through the zoo - it is significantly easier on the legs than walking uphill through every exhibit.
