The koala 🐨 is the cutest
Yoonie SJanuary 9, 2019
Waste of money! You have to pay extra to see the koalas! When I visited, some of the enclosures were shut so definitely a waste of money. Wouldn’t recommend.

Instead of eating at the Taronga Food Market, grab a snag on a roll just outside at the elephant enclosure.

Last entry is at 4.30pm. Useful to know I'd you want to catch the sky safari for the 5pm ferry to circular quay.

Don't park your stroller for too long near the bird show, or you'll be cleaning it later
Christian BigginsJune 5, 2011
Try to bring your own food. Every food place is absolutely filthy. Every time we have been here.
Gerd SDecember 28, 2011
the bird show is brilliant. 2pm
hilan kingSeptember 22, 2011
If u want close encounter w kangaroo then this is not the zoo. Go to the featherdale zoo instead. The taranga zoo is really just tourist trap. The koala encounter photos are not even good.

Stay away from my beatchs and you'll live a long time. This is my play house...
