About this tour
Spend 90 minutes exploring Taronga Zoo's Australian wildlife precinct with a small group and expert guide. You'll walk through habitats housing native species you won't find anywhere else on Earth, learning what makes Australia's fauna so distinctly odd and brilliant. The tour includes an all-day zoo pass, so you can stay and wander the rest of the grounds afterwards.

What to expect
Your guide will lead you through the Nura Diya Australia precinct, pointing out species adapted to the country's harshest environments and explaining their unusual behaviours. Expect a steady walk at a conversational pace—you'll have time to watch animals and ask questions rather than rushing through. The 90 minutes focuses on understanding what you're seeing, not ticking boxes. After the guided portion ends, the all-day pass lets you explore other zoo sections solo or revisit favourite spots.
Good to know
Bring water and sun protection; the zoo sits on Taronga's coastal grounds with limited shade. Public transport reaches the zoo easily. Mobility adjustments available if you notify the zoo beforehand. Note: this tour observes animals from a distance—no hands-on animal handling included.
