About the Business
Welcome to Tasmania Zoo, located at Riverside on Ecclestone Road, 1166. As an establishment, point of interest, and zoo, we are dedicated to both wildlife conservation and educating the community. When visiting, we kindly ask that you respect physical distancing and hand sanitizing protocols to ensure everyone's safety.
At Tasmania Zoo, we pride ourselves on providing world-standard facilities for over 100 rare, exotic, and native species. In fact, we exhibit the largest collection of these species in Tasmania, making us a unique destination for animal lovers. Additionally, we are proud to showcase the second largest collection of primates among all private Australian zoos.
One of our most notable attractions is the Celebes Crested Macaque, making Tasmania Zoo the only zoo in Australasia to exhibit this remarkable species. By visiting us, you have the opportunity to learn about and appreciate these incredible animals up close.
However, our commitment to wildlife doesn't stop there. Tasmania Zoo is also actively involved in caring for injured and orphaned wildlife. Some of these animals are unable to be returned to the wild, and as you explore the zoo, you will have the chance to meet and learn about these special creatures, each with their own unique stories.
As a member of the Zoo and Aquarium Association, we work closely with other zoos throughout Australasia and actively participate in various species management programs. By supporting Tasmania Zoo, you are contributing to the broader efforts of wildlife conservation and protection.
So come and experience the wonders of Tasmania Zoo. Whether you're a passionate animal lover, an inquisitive learner, or simply looking for a fun-filled day out, our facility offers a captivating and educational experience for all ages. Join us in our mission to protect and appreciate the incredible diversity of wildlife that Australia has to offer.
Reviews
"Best zoo I’ve been to in Australia by far! Excited to see how they expand their estate in the future. Animal encounters were a 10/10 and staff were so lovely."
"A great experience at the zoo. We had a giraffe animal encounter that was amazing. It was a reasonable amount of time given with the beautiful animals as well as being reasonably priced for the event. The animals enclosures were clean and they all seemed rather relaxed as the majority were having afternoon naps in the sun. The gift shop had a variety of souvenirs to choose from and were also reasonably priced. Mandy was lovely and welcoming. She was also grateful for the feedback that we gave. Will definitely be retuning ☺️"
"What a great experience, the staff/keepers were so lovely it was honestly refreshing. It was so nice to see all the wildlife kept so healthy and with a vast amount of land for each animal. I came to see the giraffes. (which I got to meet and greet with, such a spectacular experience). Can not recommend enough for all ages!!"
"The animal encounters are definitely value for money! We paid to have a cuddle with a wombat and a Tasmanian devil. Was not expecting the photo to come free. Bring your own water unless you don't mind paying. We thought we'd be able to refill, but because they only have tank water, they do not recommend drinking it, which was fine."
