Full description
Experience the most fun way to travel to Taronga Zoo and save money with a return ticket on the rocket ferry Circular Quay. Once inside the zoo, take in as many of the exhibits as you like at your own pace. Explore 10 themed areas, including Wild Australia, Wild Asia and the Great Southern Oceans. Hear talks by the zookeepers and go to interactive shows, such as the free bird show and free seal show. See native Australian animals, including koala and platypus, along with creatures from around the world such as Asian elephants, lions and giraffe. Grab some lunch at one of the many cafés, or take your own picnic and find a nice spot in the shade. Once you've had your animal fix for the day, head back to the dock and get some amazing views of Sydney on the cruise back to Circular Quay.

The ferry cruise and zoo were a great experience and highly recommended. However our grandchildren, visiting from the USA, were disappointed that the sky chair which was included when booking their voucher for Christmas last year, is no longer in operation.

Excellent, trip over to zoo was on time, entry to zoo easy. Saw everything but missed the first boat back and too long between boats so decided to catch one in between that was a hop on hop off instead of zoo express and did a harbour cruise up to manly and back, didn’t charge me any extra and got a lovely hour long harbour cruise, with heaps of good photos, overall a very enjoyable day out.
