Zoo in Australia

“We had a great time! It is very cool being in the Zoo at night and walking around seeing the animals so active under the red torches. It is also cool to be there before it opens the next day and seeing the Zoo and Zoo animals being prepped for the day. We were very fortunate and got a perfect night weather wise, and our group were very mobile so this allowed us to get around with ease. Canapés, drinks, dinner and breakfast were all great and the Zoo Staff were sensational. The Roar and Snore tents are very comfy. We went in winter and the electric blanket they provide was very much appreciated. You certainly hear the animals and we got a very feisty male lion roaring for his pride throughout the night, but that’s what you want right? We went on a Thursday night when it is cheaper. We certainly thought we got value from our tickets. Highly recommend doing this.”

“The African zoo to see in Australia. Drive, bike or walk to the many different animal exhibits on offer. All tickets purchased give two days of access to the zoo and you'll need it. Walking shoes are a must. We loved every minute. Definitely will come again in the future.”

“Well-designed and lovely zoo. The Wildlife Retreat is where we stayed, so getting to the zoo was simple. Amazing displays. Big zoo, but not overpowering like some can be. Cashless. Numerous displays of Australian animals may be located all across the zoo. They have amazing viewing spots that let you get close-up and personal. From Circular Quay, using the ferry and bus is simple.”

“Highlight of my trip! Our guide Georgia was so knowledgeable! I purchased the Deluxe Safari and this is well worth it. The general public bus was provided and included in admission, but was a large bus that held about 100 people, including many children (not for me), and because of the size of the bus, it could only stay on the road. Our deluxe safari bus only had 9 people, and we were able to drive off road right to see the animals.. We were just a few metres away from all the giraffes, rhinos, ostriches and zebras. 5 stars for sure!!”

“I loved this zoo. The enclosures were big and full of enrichment for the animals. The baby elephants were adorable! The giraffes were another highlight. The paths through the enclosures weren't too packed even on a midday weekend. Some of the animals were sleeping when I went, the lions, snow leopards and red pandas. If you love animals it's a must when you visit Melbourne.”

“Look up and the lions are resting in the sun. Was there around 10.30am :)”

“Coconut chicken hotpot, spicy grilled fish and more. Well priced and good flavour”

“On your birthday, Taronga Zoo entry ticket is only $1. ( One dollar only.) Lovely experience. Short and sweet ride. It is covered with the zoo entry ticket. Only one way ride. Kids love the thrill and views. Keep your cameras or phones ready to record, before you board the safari cars. Must do thing at Taronga Zoo.”

“Easy to find and plenty of parking. It’s outside the zoo entrance and the zoo has lots of parking free for under 2hrs no idea why there are negative responses”

“As I unwrapped my Christmas gift, I immediately started to cry. It was to be my furbaby Dudley's last Christmas and I had a sleek black envelop in my hands. As an admirer of Zoo Studio's work, I instantly new what I had received. The result... the heart and soul of my gorgeous boy captured as art. The beautiful images captured by Ken, hang on our bedroom wall, a daily reminder that Dudley forever lives in our hearts. It is almost as if I could reach out and touch him once again. I can't thank Beck, Ken and the Zoo Studio team enough for the precious gift they have given us during such a difficult time. I highly recommend Zoo Studio - not just for the beautiful result, but for their passion and compassion for our beloved furkids. Thank you!”

“The atmosphere of this place is great ..... you get this feeling when you walk in Very nice setting and heap and heaps of spots to train in. They also offer variety of classes including hot yoga The most amazing thing is the child care service the provide which is even open on Saturday morning The only let down is, the gym is on the second floor and I didn't see any lifts, so that can be an issue for disabled and elderly people. I highly recommend this place and hope that you will enjoy it as well (Zoo Fitness Staff, please let me know if there is a lift in your gym so I can update my review... Cheers)”

“Been to a gazillion zoos but this one stands out because of nice pseudo-wild environment and great safaris included in admission prices”

“Must see if you’re in town or even a local! This is my favorite zoo. So much so that I got married here. My wedding ceremony was wonderful back in 2014 thanks to the passionate staff at the zoo. Lots of different animals: elephants, big cats, reptiles and lots of peacocks walking about. In the spring time they have babies walking around too! Very kid friendly. Great for parties as they have different function rooms. You can also use the garden gazebos as well for cheaper kid parties. Money tips: Plan ahead as it’s quite big. A bit crowded on weekends which is expected. Bring your own food since the restaurants and cafes are outrageously expensive. It’s worth getting the membership if you’re likely to visit the other zoos as well.”

“I love this place and the ladies here wo do my hair! They listen, and get it right every single time. Not only that but we always have great conversations and the make a great hot beverage too! They also cut my Special needs daughter too and always do a fantastic job! I highly highly highly getting your hair done here.”

“Picked up a random leaflet for this and decided to give it a try since we were staying nearby. We were a bit surprised to find it located behind a shopping centre, but this is a real jewel and a great experience for the kids. Our two children couldn't believe how close they got to the animals and how many they got to touch and stroke. The staff were so friendly and informative. This small quirky animal experience to well worth the visit.”

“I recently visited National Zoo & Aquarium in Canberra and it was a great experience! The animals were so well taken care of, the staff were friendly and knowledgeable, and the grounds were very clean. We had a great time learning about the different species and seeing them in their habitats. It was an overall fun and educational experience - definitely worth a visit if you're ever in Canberra!”

“First time ever been into a bridal shop first time ever to get married I'm 52 years old I was only looking for my bridesmaids dresses and they had exactly what style I wanted just not the colour but she was able to get the colour I wanted too as well help me feel like a queen in my wedding dress beautiful service beautiful ladies at the zoo bridal shop thankyous so much for the experience I had a whole lot of weight lifted off my shoulders because of the amazing help I got highly recommend them to everyone”

“Aquarium is my favourite part of the zoo .. great variety of fresh water and an amazing salt water section featuring some pretty large bull sharks”

“Beautiful place; large variety of animals and food outlets; A great place to spend ur entire day with family and friends. Prams/strollers are provided for $15 or you can bring ur own. Washrooms are neat and tidy. Sky safari available for additional cost. Just bring ur sunscreen and umbrella depending on the weather”

“Catching the ferry to Taronga Zoo Wharf, wow another beautiful place with Nice walking trails with Plenty off different vantage points with outstanding views of the city, the opera house and the Harbour Bridge. Not to mention Taronga Zoo itself is right there, great spot for photographing the city.”

“Tremendous Zoo with lots of animals in open areas. Lots of great open areas. Can recommend the parties at the zoo bakery.”

“Wow, it was a worth while stop. Just to see all the animals up close and also have the chance to feed them. Great space for all the animals, Staff also very friendly.”

“Been coming here since a teen. Best small venue for Indie, punk banks. Saw the Stripp here recently. Ace”

“I love the Zoo I take my son at least once a year, he loves the crocodile and snakes, (not my cup of tea, the snakes that is). Family oriented and friendly staff and the animals are lovely, especially the penguins. Great place well done all involved at the PZ.”

“Loving our new family members!! Astrid is very helpful and Locke View Poultry Zoo supplies everything you need with excellent advice and information. Thank you Astrid and team!! We will be back for more family members later on. :)”

“I took my Mum for the Meercat adventure as a Christmas present. It was the most amazing and memorable experience both of us have ever had. Mum was so excited and in awe of these beautiful creatures, their handler, Caroline was so knowledgeable, friendly and helpful and made my Mum's experience unforgettable. Thank you Central Coast Zoo soooo much for making my Mum's experience incredible....”
