Our Zoo experience

Taronga Zoo Sydney’s beautiful outdoor harbourside location provides you with the chance to connect with our animals and nature and enjoy time safely with family and friends.

We’re committed to providing the best experience possible, however this does mean there are updates and maintenance taking place in the zoo. Please visit our Closures and Works page for the latest updates.

Please note it takes approximately 3 hours to explore the entire zoo. Taronga does not provide a rental locker service, so ensure you plan your trip and organise safe storage for your belongings.
