Love how the zoo sits so quaintly near the harbour, with spectacular views and bewildering animals. I feel as though its so beautifully out of place in a great way! The food/drinks are on the pricey side along with the tickets but they have to make money somehow!

Taronga Zoo is iconic and beautiful. Like most people I've been visiting since I was little, so it's nice taking a trip down memory lane. There is lots of animals and enclosures to see, and plenty of live shows. The food is a little pricey but that's to be expected. I look forward to my next visit.

Approximate cost: $40.00

This zoo is very well set out with all of the trails through the zoo. Take care though as there are some short cuts that can throw you out.

Most enclosures are well set up and the animals generally look happy.

There are parts of the zoo where you get excellent views of the harbour. The giraffe enclosure is one of the best.

It is great that they have preserved some older aspects of the zoo to show the contrast between the old ways and the new.

The bird show in the afternoon was highly entertaining, as was the seal show earlier in the day.

It took the whole day to get through the zoo and was quite tiring.

Approximate cost: $50

I recently went to the zoo on a school excursion, it was great, it wasn't too packed so we could see all the animals in time and didnt feel pressured.
Great views from the coffee shop, not much on the selection to buy from could do with more variety.
Great outdoor areas to sit and have lunch.
Toilets were very clean and presentable
A really good day out. Planning to take my own kids soon.

I really like the zoo and this is an amazing tourists attraction as well as getting people and schools all over sydney to join in on the fun by going on excursion. It is very clean but i dont really like how the food is pricey there!!

Great Zoo.... fantastic views of the Sydney Harbour a must for visitors from overseas. I have been coming here since a child and there has been some huge changes for the better. The animals are so looked after and cared for. It takes a full day to visit and make sure you have a hat and good walking shoes on lots of hills.

Ive been there quite a few times, although it does get boring seeing the same animals everytime. they have quite a large variety of animals and many different shows that are on in separate parts of the day which is good. normally very packed.

This is a fantastic way to spend an entire day with the family. It is on the pricey side, however there is more than enough to keep you going all day. You can buy food there or take some with you. The paths are all easy to access and the enclosures are clean.

Yes one of the most beautiful zoos - the zoo has a huge area compared the the wildlife park on Sydney harbour!

Another great day out with the extended family. Once again everyone had a great time. The variety of animals was good and the seals performance was great. Loved watching the baby animals. The view from the top is excellent and we had no trouble parking outside the top entrance and walking down the zoo. Had to walk back up though as the chair lift was very busy. Had another quick lunch in the cafe area which has plenty of choice for all tastes. The zoo is well laid out so that even when busy there is little congestion.
