We had a great tour of the Toranga Zoo. Zoo keeper Paul was wonderful. We had close encounters with several Australian native animals. We learned a lot. We highly recommend this tour. You can’t go wrong.

Sam was our tour guide and provided an in depth look into the exhibits we visited at the zoo. Exhibits toured heavily influenced by by Australian based animals which worked out great.
The best adventure for fans of Taronga Zoo. Laura was our guide. She was so informative and patient with all of our questions. A must for those who want to venture behind the scenes.
Highlight of our 3 weeks in Australia!!!! Paul is a wonderful guide and a wealth of knowledge. A fantastic day for a foreigner!
Our tour guide Paul was very knowledgeable, friendly and funny. Our family had one of the most memorable experiences that will last a lifetime.
What a great way to visit the zoo and learn about all the species. The zoo keepers and experts in their field and friendly.
Knowledgeable tour guide. Excellent close ups with koalas, echidnas, and kangaroos. Feeding animals in their enclosures!
Rob was fantastic. We learned so much, including the stories of individual animals. Made it a very worthwhile and memorable experience!
Gorgeous property and views and great tour guide who is an animal keeper who provided us a great education and an awesome awesome experience
I definitely enjoyed hearing the backstories of the amazing Aussie animals told to the small group by the local keeper. Hearing their names, personalities, alongside the facts about their species and environment made the visit more endearing. Getting close to the koalas, long nose echidna, and potoroos was magical.
The rest of the zoo went well. It’s a beautiful location full of amazing animals and dedicated staff.
Paulie was very knowledgeable and good fun! We leant stuff about the zoo and Australian animals that we didn’t know before. Made our day!
Our zookeeper guide gave us a lot of information about Australian animals. She was very friendly and knowledgeable, and gave us time to check out each animal. Go to the information desk to check in.
Georgia was amazing! Super knowledgeable and passionate about the animals which made the visit really engaging. I can’t wait to come back!
Rundown establishment. Full of old retired volunteers our private tour was 20 minutes late they didn't even have anyone to do the tour and had to sort it out and apologised
Incredible experience, friendly and knowledgeable guides. As an animal lover this was worth every dollar. Also paid extra for the Dingo experience... also incredible but not sure it's worth the $70 extra.
It was an a amazing experience that I got to learn about the animals, especially Australian specific ones, but to be up close and feed them as well. It was super cool and memorable. The only thing missing was the advertised "souvenir/gift" that I was supposed to get after, it seems that was misleading and untrue.
Georgia (with the dreads) was a super sweet but incredibly knowledgeable tour guide and zoo keeper. She was open to finding out what we were most interested in and catered the experience toward that. We got up close and personal with the emus, kangaroos, A variety of wallabies, and an incredible up close and personal experience with the koalas and closed it out in the nocturnal house with the bilbies, all while getting a fantastically informative view of the Taronga zoo! I am so glad I chose to upgrade my ticket to include this behind the scenes tour of the zoo! Thanks Georgia!
Amazing experience ! Loved every minute of it… I enjoyed getting up close with the animals and feeding them . Our guide Paul was extremely knowledgeable and friendly you can really tell his passion for the animals.
Incredible experience! We learned so much about Australian animals, and got to explore the zoo on our own afterwards! Would recommend!
Better than expected. Totally awesome experience. The zoo staff were super friendly and engaging. Paul, our tour guide, was the best! So knowledgeable and professional. Would highly recommend...one of the highlights from our Sydney visit.
If you want to learn all about Australian animals, this is definitely the tour for you. Our guide Tony was outstanding! And seeing several animals up close (koalas, Tasmanian devils, echidnas, and several others) were the absolute highlight of our day! A must do if you come to Sydney!
Very easy. Our guide, Johnny was excellent. He was quite knowledgeable and friendly. The six of us in our group enjoyed a number of “back stage” experiences
Very interesting and informative well worth the cost, We absolutely loved this experience, really recommend
Very interesting. The guide was very informative and helpful. We went at our own pace and it was a small group tour
This was a great experience, our guide (Rob) was awesome, he has worked at the zoo for many years and his knowledge and love for the animals was amazing,
Unfortunately for us, the zoo is too large to see everything in one visit and we only had the one day for a visit, perhaps a return trip will be required
The behind the scenes was amazing. So happy we did the tour. Up close experience and feeding some animals
Amazing behind the scenes look at the zoo. Up close with koalas and kangaroos. Cool look at the nocturnal house.
Paul was the zoo tour guide. He worked for the zoo for 20 years. He was fabulous!
My friend loves animals and he gave her a once in a lifetime opportunity to be up close and personal with many animals
Well worth it!!!
Not great. Sky safari cable car down for maintenance, no zoo kitchen, no afternoon tea ans cupcakes, trouble getting admittance to zoo. All that being said the women who took us around to the Australian animals was fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed her tour. Wish we had her for 4 hours.
Our zoo, guide, Georgia, was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. It was such a great tour!!! we would highly recommend for all!!
