A decent zoo with a good collection of animals from across the globe. Accessible pathway for prams and wheelchairs to all areas makes the experience enjoyable for families and elderly alike. Clean toilets are a plus alongside mist cooling functioning at multiple locations throughout the park. Multiple food options and a ferries wheel are also welcome addition. In summer it's best to go in morning as else most animals retreat to their cooler living areas when temperature rises. Plenty of free parking on site is good. Overall a good zoo to spend 3 - 4 hours with family.

This is a fantastic experience for both the photographer in you or to just enjoy looking at animals from around the world. Although this zoo is relatively small when compared to Western Plains Zoo… it’s well laid out and creates possibilities of easily checking out particular exhibits multiple times. The staff were all extremely helpful with answering our random questions… which made us feel welcome. If you have kids and are pushing a pram, you will find the complete site easy to navigate as most of the site is fairly level. I love the boardwalk which takes you high above the animals creating a different point of view. Back to the design… whoever decided on creating the covered areas should be commended. This provides a little shade or cover from the elements. Our favourite site which we heading back to 6 times was the Baboon exhibit. There is a lot going on there with a couple of infants really testing the parents and stealing the show. Definitely worth the annual pass which is economically priced. Cheers for a great day out 👍

This zoo is amazing! I’ll point out all the things that make visiting this zoo a great experience - It’s all flat, no hills to walk up on a hot day. They have shaded seating everywhere. They have misters everywhere spraying a fine cool mist to cool you down on a hot day. Well staffed with staff at the entry points to the indoor sections ensuring not too many people are in there so everyone can have a good look at the animals. Good food options that are reasonably priced. Good signage. Well written facts about the animals that are not too lengthy. Clean, open and green animal ‘enclosures’. Generally clean. Well laid out. Great selection of animals to see. Easy and free parking. Will be back for sure! Very happy with our visit and cannot find any negatives about the venue.

A world-class, outstanding, modern zoo. The design is fantastic and specifically achieves getting people as close to the animals as safely as possible. They offer extensive up close and personal animal interaction options. And, they have all the major animals from around the world. Truly one of the best zoos in the world. Do not miss it if you get the chance!

"My experience at Sydney Zoo was nothing short of exceptional, leaving me compelled to share my positive impressions on Google Maps. From the moment I entered, it was evident that the zoo prioritizes both animal welfare and visitor satisfaction. The enclosures are thoughtfully designed, mirroring the natural habitats of the animals. It's evident that the well-being of the residents is paramount, and the zoo's commitment to conservation and education shines through. The diverse range of species, from iconic Australian wildlife to captivating international residents, makes the visit not just entertaining but also educational. The interactive exhibits and informative signage provide a deeper understanding of each species, fostering a sense of connection and empathy. The zoo's emphasis on conservation efforts is commendable, creating awareness about the importance of preserving biodiversity. The staff's dedication to both the animals and visitors is noteworthy. Friendly and knowledgeable, they contribute to the overall positive atmosphere. The cleanliness and organization throughout the facility reflect a commitment to maintaining high standards. The zoo's layout encourages a leisurely stroll, allowing visitors to absorb the sights and sounds at their own pace. The breathtaking views of Sydney Harbor add an extra layer of charm to the experience. In conclusion, Sydney Zoo offers a well-rounded and enriching adventure for all ages. My Google Maps review aims to echo the sentiment of a memorable visit—a testament to the zoo's dedication to creating a positive and impactful wildlife experience in the heart of Sydney."

This zoo is well planned out. From the moment you enter and walk around you have animals on display in large enclosures all around you. Very easy to find, thanks to large and close enclosures. This zoo is very pram friendly to. There are shaded benches throughout plenty of cafes and toilets everywhere you go. And souvenir stores for the kids. Please refer to photos for more, highly recommend this zoo

What a credit to owners, managers, keepers and anyone involved in creating this amazing haven for all the beautiful creatures great and small living within. Even my 77yo Mum made her way around freely and comfortably. We loved this fantastic Zoo, and can't wait to get back there! Food was good, pleasantly priced, and all areas were easily accessible even by wheelchair. Thank you for an incredible time.

Easy online ticket purchase, very reasonable prices and booking times. Free convenient parking. We enjoyed the layout of the trail. The best day to visit is a sunny day during winter as most of the animals are outside. The zoo is well equipped to manage massive crowds. Less bustling on weekdays. Great logical flow through the exhibits. Plenty of rest areas and washrooms throughout. Completely pram accessible and easy to navigate. Food carts were also positioned well. The cafe has great food choices, something for everyone. Great visibility of the animals without feeling too intrusive. Animals seem to be well taken care of. Animals were active so we got to see nearly all the different species. Staff were fantastic and the info talks were great. Little one really enjoyed the animals and it’s a nice long walk in the zoo. Highly recommend visiting this zoo.

First time here, my kids enjoyed it. It was a busy day luckily it wasn't as hot as a normal summers day. We took food and drinks with us in a beach trolley. Food and drinks and ice cream are available but pricey. Good layout, flat surface every where and easy to get around. Highlights were the chimps, monkeys and lions. Love the idea with the bridge. Also if it gets a bit too hot the reptile area is nice and cool with air con. Had a few shaded areas and picnic tables to stop by. The kids loved the ferris wheel. All and all spent about 3hrs here. We went after noon and most animals were tucked away and asleep, prob best to go in the morning or late afternoon during feeding time. Parking is for free and easy access off the highway.

One of the most beautiful zoos that I have come. It is very nice that a lot of different animals have their home in here. The staff is very friendly and supportive with tourists and animals living in here as well. They have many species such as tiger, koala, kangaroo, and so on. It is not very far from the city of Sydney, that you can enjoy the wild life of those lovely species that live in here. Highly recommend to come here and enjoy!!!!

Took the wife and kids to this zoo. Great experience. Easy online ticket purchase. Reasonable prices. Enjoyed the simple layout. Animals seem to be well taken care of. Plenty of rest areas throughout. Food carts were also positioned well. Ate lunch here and kids enjoyed the food choices. Workers were professional and caring while dealing with wandering kids.

Amazing new zoo in the heart of Western Sydney. Very easy parking. This zoo is extremely pram friendly and exhibitions are easy for toddlers to enjoy at their height. Although it is small, they have done well to provide lots of shade and water misting areas for hot days like today, toilets and areas for food and drink. Definitely would recommend visiting for young families.

Visited this zoo third time. Best day to enjoy is a sunny day during winter as most of the animal are outside. Less bustling on weekdays. Clean and accessible area for wheelchairs as well. Little one really enjoy the animals and it’s a nice long walk in the zoo. Recommend going with family to enjoy a day out.

It's better to book your ticket online for a 10aud off and quick entry. It has convenient free parking. The Zoo is well managed and equipped. Easy trail flow. Heaps of rest areas and cafes around with plenty of great food to choose from. There are also rides for kids to enjoy. We had fun seeing all the lovely animals and long walks in the zoo. Staff are so nice and friendly. I highly recommend visiting this zoo.

Was a great day trip with the family to Sydney Zoo. The zoos layout made it easy to navigate and traverse. The exhibits were all well kept, and the animals all looked in good health. The cafeteria did leave the food choices a bit lacking with the hot dog rolls that once cooled down turned solid. The chips and drinks were nice, though baring that it was a fun time to spend walking around with the family seeing all the animals that inhabit the bus lands around our homes!

The zoo has been planned extremely well, it's an easy walk and can be finished in under 3 hours (with a toddler). The exhibits have been very well prepared and allows great views of the various animals. We arrived at opening which I would strongly recommend as the lines to enter when we left at 12 were at least 300m long. I'd also recommend visiting the aquariums first as it gets quite cramped later in the day Try to eat prior or bring food, the cost of food is ridiculous (only negative of the day). 4 nuggets, chips and a drink for $14

Very good in terms of variety. Most of the animals seemed well looked after. Decent facilities. The elephant looked like he wanted some water it was a hot morning but he probably got that soon after we saw him. Some better signage to show you which way to go...we doubled back a few times...Overall a great wildlife park.

The animals and Zoo itself were pretty good, probably more suitable for younger families, though. My biggest issue was with the absolute state of the dining areas. I'm not entirely sure what the standard is, but I'm telling you it was a disgrace! The place was filthy with not a clean table on site, and probably more food and rubbish on the ground than on the tables and not a staff member in sight keeping it clean.

Great zoo, easy to park and off main highway. No trouble getting tickets. If going more than once in a year buy the annual pass. Saturday was busy to get in but the park felt spacious and easy to walk around. Weather was showers but with umbrella the animals were more active than I would otherwise have thought. Great indoor reptile and shark/ aquarium enclosures. Closer views of koala than Taronga zoo. Overall great experience

We were pleasantly surprise by the range of animals and the setup. It is beautifully setup with a lot of animals that I didn’t expect to see. They have a beautiful walk that goes around the park with plenty of seating areas for families with kids to sit relax enjoy and kids have a play around. There are a lot of staff around to help answer questions give direction. The checkin was simple and seem less order your tickets online get a QR code scan it at the gate and that’s it. I highly recommend everyone to go there and check it out. I would certainly be back there just to walk around, relax and enjoy looking at these magnificent animals. They have tigers, lion, cheetah, different species of monkeys, wild dogs, elephant, meerkats as well as so many native animals. Love it.

Really surprising and enjoyed the day out with my family. It isn't cheep but nothing is really now a days. I definitely recommend a visit. Staff a very helpful and very friendly and the exhibitions are full of interesting and amazing animals. Check out Australia's largest nocturnal enclosure simply amazing.

Sydney Zoo was amazing, and we really enjoyed it. We love how it is very well laid out. I would highly recommend this zoo to my friends and family ❤️

Perfectly Sized for a quick trip. The zoo takes around 2 - 3hrs at a comfortable pace. The enclosures have been designed to ensure the animals are all easy to view, even if they are resting. If you have small children this zoo is perfect, all the favorites are here, the layout is flat and as you walk there's never a moment when you cant see an exhibit. Cafes are onsite and there's plenty of parking. A really nice place to get your zoo fix without taking all day.

Great medium/small zoo with vast variety of animals, great for a family day out. Great to see animals up close and in more of an open environment. proper signage would be great so there no fussing and walking about to much. Food was decent but more on the pricey side, overall it was a great experience. Visited 2 times so far.

Definitely a great day out with the family! Highly recommend even with toddlers cause there has space to walk and all mostly very even and pram accessible. The animals seem few but they have set themselves up for a great number of future developments. The animals looks happy and healthy. The zones are easy to navigate without the map and the areas are all well designed. There are undercover spots unlike other zoos in Sydney. They are well appointed with water mists for hot days and are a great reprieve from the sun. Well done guys! The walking bridge is unique and awesome. Seeing the ostrich, giraffe, lions and wild dogs from different angles. The playful elephants were a treat and highly recommended. We thought they were not there and were initially sad. But it was wonderful to see them pushing each other around. I didn't get time to eat at the venue. But the burgers looked and smelt fantastic and were everywhere. Patron favourite. Post COVID, there are schedules but once inside and after noon, it gets hectic and very minimal distance out in open areas and inside buildings. It can be hard as you can imagine.

Always a great experience at this zoo. Flat walk ways which is great for anyone who has issues with mobility or pushing prams, the staff members are always friendly and helpful, the animals appear to be very happy, misting shaded areas and misting fans all over the place. Good day out for the kids

Easy to get around, nice and flat. No stairs or steep hills. Saw all of the animals, some up quite close. The staff were very friendly and told us about some of the animals. Amenities were clean and the coffee was good. It took us about 3 hours to get around and look at everything at a leisurely pace. There were plenty of shaded seats along the way and some shaded areas had misters for the warm weather.

Great day out for the kids! Purchased tickets online to save some money. We went for the dinosaur safari, and the kids loved it! The dinosaurs were spread all over the zoo, so it kept the kids entertained the whole zoo visit. Some of the dinosaurs moved (which was pretty cool!) It took us about 3 hrs to see all the animals, and that included having a quick lunch. We went in at 9 am and there weren't too many people around. Highly recommend visiting during the Dinosaur Safari! We also went on the Ferris wheel ($8/person/ride, kids under 3 free). The kids loved it! Great view of the zoo.

Medium sized zoo with a great reptile display and large variety of animals for its size. Took about 2 hours to leisurely explore the zoo. Went during Summer with the free Ferris wheel rides - was very worth the time. Super hot, but there were mist sprayers everywhere. Most Animals in the zoo were able to be spotted. The boulevard eatery is a nice place to eat and rest, but no air con. Most clean and good amenities around the zoo.

Very easy Zoo to get around, I love taking photos and I found that getting a decent photo of some of the animals a little difficult. It was a very hot, humid day so it was wonderful to have the fans and mists spread around the park to help keep cool. The main cafeteria was not air conditioned which is not great, especially on hot days like today. The food was was WAY overpriced, especially for the quality of the food. I had a hot dog which was Luke warm and hot chips which were nice. A friend had a hamburger which did not taste good at all and looked very unappealing. Otherwise, it was a great day and I was able to get around the whole zoo very easily. The only animals I wasn’t able to see was the tigers and the red pandas which was unfortunate.

I've always found visiting zoos to be fascinating, and my experience at the Sydney Zoo was very similar. I could see practically every animal except for the Tiger. The zoo is not as large as one might think, but it does have good space and is very well maintained. You can visit it in half a day without having to miss anything. The zoo map at the entrance makes it much easier to plan things out. A positive experience at the end of the day.

Absolutely brilliant...for kids of all ages, exhibit enclosures are of the highest quality and a very natural habitat. Getting around was so easy, great to see the elderly and and disabled have been looked after, plenty of toilets and seating was abundant. For me the the viewing platforms were fantastic, they will accommodate everyone. Totally recommended. Loved it.

New clean zoo, not as big as Taronga. You can cover the whole area within 3 hours. We went on a sunny day so the most of the animals were either sleeping or just sitting under a shade. Plenty of parking available. Various shades, sitting benches, toilets, and rubbish bins throughout the path. To my surprise, it has a multi-faith prayer room near to the exit as well, which is quite commendable and appreciated.

A really enjoyable day out for the whole family. One of the better features of the park is if you have mobility issues like myself you are able to hire a motorised scooter for the day. There are also pram and wheelchair hire. All the staff members they're extremely friendly. Sydney zoo is clean well-maintained with many of dining options available. Although if you are wanting to pack a picnic lunch the zoo does permit that unlike a lot of places these days. As long as there is no alcohol or Glass Containers or bottles been brought onto the site.

Excellent level of accessibility. Not a huge zoo,but definitely a fun day out

Zoo is quite well maintained and the staff is friendly and helpful. The only thing worth giving a thought is variety and number of animals they have. It has a nice gift shop for the souvenirs and a restaurant too for getting refreshed. Got drinking water facilities at a few places. The indigenous talk part is also worth it.

This is an awesome zoo for a nice family day out. Lots of shaded areas, water misters keeps you cool on hot days, animals seem well looked after. Parking close to the zoo is limited so the earlier you are the better. I would recommend at least 2 hours to appreciate and maximise your time at the zoo especially if you have keen young ones that love animals. Nice touch with the Ferris wheel attraction. $8 per person 3 yrs and over.

A great place to take the family!! Love the Safari bus - it takes you around the outdoor area and tour guide was excellent. Large range of animals in natural. You can also walk around the other areas of the park and there is a picnic area and kids playground. It was a great experience! Highly recommend for a family day out.

Finally got to visit this place over the weekend, was overall a great day. It's large but not so big that you're exhausted by the end of it, most of the walk is flat which was great as we had a pram. Food was pretty good. If you decide to go on a weekend or school holidays I would recommend going early as the line to enter was very large as we were leaving around lunch time.

Good confined place for a nice relaxing time for kids. Since it’s a small place one is guaranteed to see all the animals. I took my 2 yr old and he was really happy to see the elephant and meerkats. The place has lot of eateries and shady areas.

Very well thought out zoo. There are regular places to sit down, misting sprays to cool you down, and of course, a huge selection of animals. We particularly loved watching the Chimpanzees and Lions. All the staff we interacted with were extremely nice, and knowledgeable. We will gladly come back!

Great new zoo in Western Sydney. Enclosures are very open and allow great visibility of all the animals. Unlike other zoos where the animals feel very far away. Sydney Zoo has managed to get a great balance of creating an exhibit that benefits the animals and also the customers. There is an open section of the zoo where the animals roam freely and can be interacted with by the public. With the zoo being new the facilities are all in good condition. Definitely worth checking out.

The Sydney Zoo is catering to a younger population. There are lots of large animal toys in the park. No cages, so you can observe animals from the bridges and transparent fences. There are plenty of food options available. Be aware that the paths are not paved, and it gets extremely dusty when the wind picks up. Wear some sunglasses and get glasses for your kids as well.

I’ve visited this zoo 3 times now and it has been great to watch them grow. Overall in would argue this zoo delivers when it comes to a modern approach of looking after wild animals. Sitting and watching the meerkats, penguins and the emus in their respective enclosures are genuine highlights. When the weather is perfect it really is a wonderful experience. Though there’s a noticeable absence of shady area to sit on very hot days - of which there are numerous. I’ve never eaten here because we always pack a lunch (go team) so I can’t comment on the food / facilities. Definitely worth a visit whether you’re a local or if you just really love zoos. Say hi to the Red Panda for me.

Very good value for money. Would go again. Had fun with the Africa wild life. And reptiles nocturnal area. Very good new human fish in the aquarium call wash and wipe. Good day all around

An excellent zoo, so close to home. Staff were very friendly throughout the entirety of the zoo. Food was reasonably priced, which is always a good thing when it come to attraction based venues. Animals were easily visible and the enclosures appeared to have ample space for animals to move about freely. Covid protection was covered very well through strategic management all over the zoo. And staff reinforced the measures by regularly reminding customers. Only thing I wish to see improve in this park is more covered areas so that we don't spend so much time in the sun. As it was winter that we attended, it wasn't so bad but I could see myself melting under the sun given a hot day should occur. All in all a great zoo, with plenty of variety, friendly staff, and safe procedures during these dark times. Will return regularly with our upgraded annual pass.

Had a great time. The zoo is set out very well and is so easy to see all the animals. Easy access for prams and wheel chairs to all areas. Some fantastic gifts in the gift store to remember the day.

The elephant looked so distressed, I watched him for 15 minutes and his eyes were closed and had his head against the wall and he was moving right to left non stop, hopefully the management do something about it as it was sad

(Translated by Google) was fun! The scenery was also a wonderful zoo! (Original) 楽しかった！景色も、素晴らしい動物園でした！

This zoo is layed out perfectly, excellent access for prams and wheelchairs, ample parking, close to freeway, the enclosures are clean, spacious and the animals look happy, good play area for kids and plenty of places to eat or get refreshments. I love it, my grandchildren loved it, will definitely go again. Well done guys ?

A great addition to western sydney. Not the biggest but definitely got some fabulous highlights. Perfect time right now with the capybara pup. It was awesome to watch the pup go for a swim with parents. Aquarium with big Barra's were a hit with the children. Loved the African painted dogs. Very spacious throughout. Other attractions include the Baboons, Arabian camels, emus, wombat, lions, orangutan, hyenas and farm animals. Pretty good cafe's too. Nice play area for children. Plenty of parking, nice gift shop. Definitely going back

Clean zoo, sanitizer in evry corner of the zoo. The staff are so welcoming smiling and helpful. It was also a good occasion to meet many families from differents cultural background. Just love it. To visit certainly another time.

Great little zoo, easy with young kids as no stairs/ hills. The kids loved it and not as big as taronga so could probably do the whole zoo in 3hrs comfortably. Currently no keeper talks though so that's a bit of a bummer, but the way it's set up you get quite close to the animals and the kids loved that. Smaller than the taronga ones we've been to but good variety of animals and really good for the younger kids that may get tired in the bigger places. Pram friendly as all flat surfaces, there is also wheelchair, pram and ride on carts avail for hire.

A perfectly designed zoo.. so many animals that are hard to find. There's 4 lions, 3 elephants, 3 hyenas, 2 giraffes, 2 zebras, 2 cheetahs, 2 tigers and many other animals. The Australian animals section is fascinating. Many types of snakes and rodents, plenty of relaxed kangaroos, joyful wallabies, attention seeking emus and the well loved koalas. Seating areas Infront of the animals is a great idea. Small cafes all around the zoo, a lot of restrooms and many water filling stations. I loved the place, the annual family membership is well worth it! Definitely my favourite zoo!

Spacey and clean with nice view. The walking is good too, not packed. They have lots of animals, including kids zone (nocturnal room & aquarium). Ferris wheel is near kids zone which cost $7 per person. Lots of food kiosk and one big clean food court. Recommended. Annual Membership is affordable too. $109 for 1 adult and 2 kids.

Instead of Secret Santa this year, we decided to do our kids Christmas Party at the new Sydney Zoo, I am so happy we did, it was such a wonderful day, the kids had a blast. I particularly enjoyed the layout, I thought the map was very thought out and I loved the while visiting 'Australia' the native animals were free to roam in such a spacious area, the children enjoyed being able to pet the emus and see the kangaroos and wallabies in their home. It was also rather heart warming to see how large and natural all the enclosures are, especially for the bigger species in the zoo. They deserve that! 10/10 would recommend to a friend.

The zoo was Brilliant and the staff very helpful and knowledgeable. They have added shading but still a hard place to visit on a hot day. The enclosures are large and great viewing platforms and spots to get the most out of your visit. The only disappointment was the bull shark seemed to be a myth and was not there.

Great family friendly Zoo. Open easy walking. Very clean and with COVID sanitizer and messages everywhere about staying clean and social distancing. Animals were great and seemed very happy

Had a great time. Busy 31st 2020. But entry was not busy as they welcome 1 hours interval. Covid safe regulations practiced well by the staff and they remind regularly about the distancing. Kids loved the day. Spend 5 hours but could finish it with 4 hours time.

Good place for kids in Western Sydney. Should take enough time to visit and enjoy. Plenty of available places to take rest and also enough spaces in the cafe. Wheel was awesome to ride and see Western Sydney, kids enjoyed a lot. Aquarium is relatively small but but blue light at the corners attracted kids. Was able to touch emu in Australian part and also good to see Penguin and some African animals. A good place to visit if you are in Western Sydney.

Kuala , beautiful 😍

We were greeted by very cheerful guides/volunteers upon entry. Hop on and off buses to various animal look out points. I find its better to stay on the bus if u want to see the cats and hyenas. You’ve gotta have a very keen eye to be able to spot the cheetah under a shady tree or the Lions taking a nap during the day. The guides on the bus give very good commentaries on the animals and it’s habitat, so are the animal keepers during show times. I suggest you bring your own bottled water and some snacks. Food can be quite expensive, even if you use the concession card. Covid19 hygiene and social distancing in place, although the dining area can get quite crowded at lunch time. I find the Giraffe feeding enclosure is about the closest you can get to see the animals. Most times we were watching from a distance. We did not do the 360 experience. Overall, a very pleasant (cool) day to visit. 1h drive from the city.

I had the chance to visit the zoo just before opening a while ago. A lovely park with reasonable space and a nice range of animals to see. The dining facilities were decent and the staff were helpful also. The zoo is quite far (for myself particularly) but makes for a nice whole day family outing. Highly recommend and I will be back for another visit.

We ordered our tickets online but still had to queue about 15min. Staff were very attentive and tried their best to get people in as fast as they could. The tracks were very flat and it was a nice comfortable walk around the zoo. The settings per cage were amazing. The only downside is that the range of animals was very limited but they had a few marsupials that we haven't seen before. Toilets were super clean and loved the solar bin units. There were plenty of rest stops with shelter which was nice. Food was very expensive though. The reptile area was cool. The aquarium wasn't worth going in. Overall, good to go if you haven't been. Lids had a ball.

Surprisingly good. Even though it appears small, we ended up spending 4 hours there. Good picnic spots. Good for young kids 3yr+. Only negatives, is the price of kiosk and cafe items. And only a small amount of shade. Bring your own food and drink. Bring a big hat in summer!

Lovely day at the Sydney Zoo, nice and flat so it’s easy to walk, no hill climbs, plenty of parking. Staff were friendly and helpful. Food was good, lots of people were ordering coffee so it took a while but the baristas are only human. Even the gift shop was priced reasonably so we picked up more things than we normally would at other zoos we have been to.

Great new zoo and pretty convenient to get to from most of Sydney. Annual passes are good value if you live within driving distance

Sydney Zoo is a great zoo to head to. It is flat, which makes it so much better for small children and older people, or those with mobility issues. There are cafes spread around the zoo, so you can stop at many places. Most enclosures have seating available. There are misting guns under regular shelters for keeping cool on those hot days, and they work really effectively as a break between the hot sun. I loved it so much, I became a member, and plan to go regularly with my toddler.

Loved it! Included a couple of animals not often seen at other zoos around Sydney, in areas that appeared (to the layman) to balance animal comfort and visibility very well. Really nice open air, flat layout thoughtfully considered to provide people respite and easy circuits back round to the main seating area so I imagine it would be quite child/disabled/elderly friendly. Look forward to seeing what else they will offer in future!

Fabulous place for young and old not a overly ĺarge place so easily to move and get around. The animals looked familiar in their surroundings and were enjoying the beautiful sunshine. The cafeteria had a great food selection was a little over priced and having the burgers and chips already prepared waiting for them to be bought and sold wasn't a good idea as our burgers were rather cold and chips were only warm. The entire experience of the zoo was greatly enjoyed and having it so close to home was even better. 👌

Lovely open zoo, with huge, natural habitat enclosures for the animals. Great aquarium and reptile house too. Level footpaths make it good for pushchairs or wheelchairs. There are also plenty of benches scattered around, as well as refreshment stations. Kids playground and coffee shop.

It was our first experience in zoo in Sydney. We had fun. On an average it's good place to spend a day with kids. Positive - good collection of animals and lots of activities to do for kids. U can definitely spend all day here. Negative - the most important one for me was that bathroom were in dire condition. Lots of them dint had any tissue paper. The floors were dirty Second was even after spending good amount of money on tickets the internal attractions like Farris wheel or snow glob activities were all paid. I found that little expensive. Buy overall I happy with it.

This is a nice zoo, well laid out and overall a good family experience. Even with a full parking lot it wasn’t too crowded…for a weekend in July. If you’re expecting a menagerie of amazing animals, I recommend the Australian Reptile Park or even Symbios; there are the basic big animals you expect to find at a zoo but that’s about it. The rides are fun but again, pretty basic considering the size of the zoo and ticket price. Speaking of prices, if you think you’ll be back more than one time in a year the annual pass is slightly more expensive than a one-time visit.

Great zoo! Has all the favourites there living in pleasant enclosures. Can easily and leisurely get around with seating and toilets conveniently place as you make your way around. Loved it!

Fantastic spot for the kids to enjoy. Bought a family pass and love the ease of it all. Plenty of parking. Misters on hot days and can fill up our water bottles throughout the park

First time we visited Sydney Zoo with our grand daughters. Bought our tickets online which are cheaper & no waiting. Best to come around 9.30am. Plenty free parking. Loved it as their were no stairs or hills easy to get around with prams. Plenty of areas to get cooled off with the fan mists on a hot day! The zoo is clean, animals are set out in a great environment. Even have an Aquarium which there is plenty to see.

Loved our visit to this zoo. The enclosures are large and well set out for the animals. Easy to get around, and I got a discount entry with my seniors card to. Thank you for a great day out.

I found Sydney Zoo to be very well set out and easy to get around. This was our first time there and we really enjoyed the day. There was a great variety of animals and their enclosures were looked great.

The Sydney Zoo at the Eastern Creek is amazing 😍 It's so big and full of animals 👍 The place is big. You walk around in different continents and regions in the zoo to see the different animals. It's a great layout and plans everywhere to find where the animals are. The staff are helpful. This is one of the best zoos in Sydney. Highly recommend checking this place out if you love animals 😀 It's fantastic 👏

Such a great zoo to take the lil kiddies and visiting family to. Small enough to walk around and see everything without getting tired, yet big enough to host such a wide range of animals, from exotic African animals, to our own beautiful Australian wildlife and marine life. All with amazing views too! Highly recommend it!

A great addition to the western suburbs of Sydney. We got to see most of the animals as the weather was beautiful. The only bad thing was the high prices for food. It was a very nice day out with the family, I strongly recommend.

This is a great family attraction. Easy to walk around, loads of parking. My kids love it. Family friendly.

We had a fantastic time here today our daughter on entry gave the lady a picture and the lady said she will put it on the wall I was amazed at how caring she was. And in regards to social distancing they have that down to a T they were everywhere making sure that people were staying apart Great experience

Excellent for kids. Has enough exhibits to keep everyone interested. Enough free parking. Easy approach. Great new attraction for western Sydney. Great cafes inside with a nice restaurant in the middle for meals. Has a Ferris wheel too.

Small zoo with some good animals. Currently under restricted visitors which was nice and not crowded. Very clean.

Great family environment. Lots of parking available on site. 5/5

Its well set out easy to walk. No steps. Loved the animals

Great place...but let's free the animals :)

Great place to visit

Great day out for the whole family. Being only a year old, it's not a big park and easy to walk around. I'm sure it will continue to grow. They also have a young zoo keeper day for the kids too. Recommend going at least once.

Good zoo better then some

Sadly no Bullshark yet and that was the only reason I bought the Anual ticket. waist of money!!!! Everything else is normal nothing extraordinary and there are no trees yet. The Africa animal are very very nice, you cannot see in other zoo's. But if you want to feed the Kangaroos or see alligators not so good.

Lots of fun and the perfect size zoo to bring small kids to

Spacious, clean and lots to see

Nice and well maintained zoo.. not very big so perfect for younger kids to trek along without getting tired. Exhibits are limited, so not a big wow for adults but will definitely excite younger ones. Plenty of food options and stalls around. Parking is accessible as well.

It is really a good zoo. I enjoyed a lot with me family.

Awesome beautiful place great viewing points and not as exhausting as other Zoos thanks for a great day

Good just needs more animals.

Great size friendly staff. Food very expensive

Was great being so close to the animals the park is so spacious and open its great

Good and nice place to take the kids,affordable and educational.

Well maintained place, great place to bring kids, very informative lectures given by the staff, very interactive conversations, nice food options. The tiger show is a mist see. The shifting if the elephants and giraffes from one place to another and opening of gated was interesting too.

Great new addition to Sydney's landscape. This zoo is great in so many ways. Easy access off the motorways, heaps of parking, great collection of animals in massive enclosures and efficient and very helpful staff make this a great day out. However, them need to improve their food and beverage offerings because they're a bit limited in choice, although they're good in taste and value. And the meerkat enclosure adjacent to the dining area is a stroke of genius! Well done!

Awesome Zoo for families. The animals are all so easy to see.

Great place for the family.

Sydney zoo is better that Taronga. Much easier to walk around.

Fantastic

Great range of animals. Well signed. Staff very accommodating. Clean and tidy.

Great place for the kids for 3-4 hours.

Loved it here all the animals are close by, food courts are great

Lots to see and easy to walk around

needs more displays, but they're working on it. Lots of shade and places to sit and watch the animals. Family friendly

All animals out. Such a great morning.

Well laid out

Very nice, easy to visit every animal in one day, conveniently located and priced

Not worth the land it's built on. If you want a zoo but can't travel far, go to Taronga.

Amazing zoo! Far better than Tarango zoo

Friendly staff, beautiful inclosures, food there was amazing, child and disability friendly which was great to see and great pricing!

It's just lovely. Well planned and easy to see everything

Truly enjoyed this place. It was amazing, easy to get to, easy to access tickets. Definitely worth the trip ???

Good layout and facilities although not the greatest varieties or number of animals.

Good set out, kids loved it. The nocturnal section was great.

1 elephant 1 alligator and a solitary tiger.. just manage some stray animals.. you own a Zoo & where was that Lion

I won't say it's all bad. The zoo seemed well kept but the space didn't seem enough for the animals.. such a big land they are on and yet the whole car park they have is bigger than the zoo it self. The food was a rip off $20 for a burger that had burnt buns, was cold and loaded with chips.. fish & chips was anything but worth the $20, the fish was small, dry and hard to chew on and again loaded with chips.. the salad bowl wasn't the best either. I mean I am happy to the pay the price but at least make the food decent and enjoyable. Everything in there is literally overpriced. Is it worth the $80 - $100 you pay to get in.. NO.

We love this zoo! Flat walking paths, easy to navigate, lots to see and do

Really done up for wheelchair users and great meals from cafes

We just had a great day

Nice ? place to enjoy a day

Easy to park car, entry no issue. Disappointing to see so few animals and what appeared to be empty enclosures. Easy walk especially for people with disabilities along with a good layout.

Wonderful place to visit with kids ?

We absolutely loved the Zoo, its clean the enclosures were refreshing and unlike other zoo's we got to see all the animals, great for toddlers we discovered they had a small sand pit for the kids to play in, overall a. Lovely experience

I can't say it was terrible but it wasn't the greatest experience either. The was a total lack of social distancing with huge crowds. Heaps of children and adults were climbing on and entering areas that violated covid rules. Half the animals were asleep hiding and didn't get to see them. Watched 2 poor emu's being harassed non-stop by not just children, but by adults that went into the areas they weren't supposed to just to exhaust the poor things more. Was actually a very big let down. Not worth the time or money. 2 things I won't be wasting here again. Toronga zoo is way better by far. Definitely has alot of room for improvements.

Absolutely fun day out !

Nice place for a day out with kids

Awesome place to visit. Unique experience

Mediocre place If you went to taronga zoo skip this one

Very clean, great food, a little pricey but the food was that tasty it's worth it.

Red panda was pretty dope

Awesome Zoo. Well worth a visit!

No bull shark yet

Such a excellent place to take the kids. Great range of animals. Plenty of spots to sit down and relax or have a nice meal.

Each time I go I see different animals out and about. Today was late afternoon visit so animal were waiting for food. Otters being cheeky. Tiger just chilling

We've been to all the Zoos in Sydney, compelled to write a review about this zoo, as it's the best. Well maintained, active animals and the best part is the places where you can see those animals not congested, good shades and easy to fill up drinking waters across various parts. The best place to go with Family.

What an experience. They had so much to offer and whats great is that its close to home. Plenty of parking. Plenty of eateries. The reptile and nocturnal area was the kids favourite. There is great shaded areas to have a rest. Definitely going back again. Covid safe.

First time visit to this new Z00. The Z00 is a great size for a young family with plenty of exhibits to see that will keep everyone enthralled. Even the available food was good. Well worth the visit.

Well laid out, Covid safe and easy to navigate. Friendly staff and great food options. The day was hot but the sprinkler system and shady areas made it comfortable. The animals were beautiful and clearly happy and well cared for. We’ll come again.

Great place to take the kids. Amazing animals to see. Well worth the money, and drive up. Tips: 1. Wear Runner shoes (walking on mostly rocks/dirt) 2. Pack lunches for the family (costly cafes) 3. Wear hats & take umbrella (sun can be brutal) 4. Charge all phones/cameras etc (well worth the shots) 5. Buy tickets Online (cheaper, and if you arrive after 1pm they sometimes will refuse entry because their apparently sold out? like they did my family on Saturday *12/12/20* - lucky my husband stood there infront of the guy and bought our tickets than and there 😂)

One of the best places to visit in Sydney

Easy level walking and lots to see!

Friendly staff, more animals than Taronga zoo.

The animals are very far to see maybe there should be a mirror podium for all enclosures so could have close encounters.

This is a fantastic zoo for ALL ABILITIES and is wheelchair and pram friendly with no hills! We have an annual pass and regularly come here after school for a quick afternoon visit. They also have some great member only events that happen during the year also.

Kid and pram friendly. Easy to navigate and plenty of seating areas for tired little feet!

Great for a family day out. It's a small zoo, so don't expect to see another Taronga. But it has most of the famous animals that you would want to see. There is also a sand pit in a children playground, and some monkey bars too. There is a bit of a wait to stand in line for both the aquarium and the reptiles. The aquarium is not that good, but the reptiles had some good ones in there. There is also a ferris wheel, with a view of the whole park. So if you want to spend a couple of hours, or three tops, then it would be great for you.

Great, really well planned. Viewing areas have really good vantage points.

Friendly staff and great experience

Nice little zoo, close to home

Fantastic family friendly experience.

Wheel chair accessible through out the whole zoo, great layout for viewing animals. Easy to walk around, you can buy or bring a packed lunch. Lots of disability parking very close to entrance. Great for school groups and clients with different abilities outings. Some of the school groups can be a bit loud but if you talk to the zoo keepers they will say something to the school so clients can enjoy there day with out being over loaded by noise. I would like to take my kids here next time as the view of the animals is amazing.

It's good place

Good

Sydney Zoo is an impressive new zoo on a compact patch of ground. Its all done at leisurely and effortless pace. The highlight has to be the Nocturnal area, with an amazing selection of snakes, frogs and marsupials. We did feel the elephant was lonely by herself, not sure if there is a family to join her. Make sure you spend some time with the Tassie Devils 😈 if you're lucky they will show you their sharp teeth. Easy to get to, plenty of parking, reasonable food offerings. Choose a day that isn't too hot.. Enjoy!

Good zoo

My grandchildren loved the zoo as it was just big enough for them to have a good time. They have also set the zoo out in loops and placed cafes strategically s so you are never far from one. One really great feature is the filtered water station where to can refill your water bottle for free.

No shark yet. Getting disappointed now. Fairy floss guy wears no gloves, rubs his nose n mouth, rubs his pants and handles food. STAY AWAY FROM HIS FOOD.

It was fun

I had a fun day

Loved this Zoo, it is open with a nice layout. No hills lots of seats unlike other zoos. Only down side would be the lack of shade. When it is a sunny day it is very hot and no shade when walking to one animal to the other

One of my favorite place :)

Most Suitable for families with little kids. Good for quick visits. My kids love going there!

Fantastic for kids, bit pricey but a good way to kill a few hours and entertain the kids, not bad at all

Didnt see much animals. My baby was very sad as there was not much animals to see and most were quiet far away :(

Great place to visit. Accessible, comfortable and something for everyone. Will visit often.

Great place to visit, lots of animals. There not always out but overall amazing

Went on the first bday of Sydney Zoo, the arrangement was so good. Very new and beautiful zoo.. very friendly staff and good overall.

Wonderful animals,i saw big lions, elephants, emus, big camels living freely on the hills

Good zoo for kids. Is much smaller than toronga zoo. Lots of free parking. Hand sanitizers and fans with water mist make it good in the summer.

Purpose built so great for kids and prams. Good vantage points for all animals. Totally different animals to Taronga Zoo so worth the visit for a change.

Great experience with kids, they all love them. But they should grow more trees there.

Great food, easy to get around layout and safe footpaths for little ones to lead the way on

By far the worst experience, most unfriendly staff & most irresponsible Zoo manager Steve. Steve who has no decision making authority on anything. They don’t declare clear terms & conditions on their website. Don’t be fooled coming here it’s waste of your money & time.

Personally, I think it is not impressive. Not that big and not that much kind of animal. On the other hand, not that small and not that less kind of animal.

Loved it so much to see

Very easy to walk around. Flat and fairly compact. The Australian section is open without high fencing giving it a much more relaxed feel. Food is expensive as you would expect at a venue such as this.

This place is sooo good. I would recommend it over Taronga zoo. Very clean, spacious, friendly and the animals are very up close with alit of variety with more coming. They look happy and have space to roam. Much closer to home too..would recommend and visit again

It is a nice zoo. Not too big and easy to walk around. Lot of restrooms and eating corners with heaps of sitting area. Felt bit sorry for the animals and the enclosed places are too small for the animals. Crocodile was enclosed in a water space which was small like a bath rub. Very less room for him to move around.

Pretty good. Easy 2hr walk

Not impressed at all after the visit. Social distancing practice is in place, which is great, but not enough shade for stretched queues, leaving visitors baking on the sun waiting to enter some areas. The wheel ride costs extra money on top of the expensive entry ticket and the food in cafes as well as items in the gift shop are higly overpriced. We couldn't see half of the animals as they hid from the eyes.Very overcrowded inspite of being Monday which destroys all the efforts done by staff to distance people in the queue. Probably just unlucky time of the day, giving 2 stars only for the zoo staff being polite and friendly.

Really nice zoo! Well planned out, easy to get around and see everything.

it was a nice walk about 2 hours to go around the whole park. It needs more attractions

Great Zoo. Well set out and you can see all the Animals easily.

A nice place for picnic & enjoyment with kids.

Medium sized zoo with large sized zoo fee

It was a a nice morning out a lot of animals not out on show but kids enjoyed themselves

Wonderful family friendly zoo.

Fantastic zoo. Very easy to get around and lots of space. Great animal variety.

It maybe a new zoo but some enclosures look very tired already

Decent place to bring the young ones. Not enough shaded areas on hot days, so be sun smart. No shaded parking. Food and drinks are exxy as expected, but food is decent. Have to pre-book online, though still massive crowds despite the limitations on entry.

Great zoo very spacious easy to walk around all animals easy to see up close plenty of viewing areas lots of seats and resting areas cooling down and water refilling stations no hills to walk up and down path loops around plenty of hot and cold food and had a great day out with the family we will certainly take the family back there again and again.

Now the exibits are not too bad although some animals were not out on opening. In a time of covid and social distancing and not to mention the note on their web site when booking. Around the Lion enclosure and the elephant enclosure way too many peope were gathering together. No distancing and no masks were being worn in those areas. Lots of sanitation points around the park though. Would i do it again, probably not.

Great zoo.

Small zoo, full price

Fun great clean new sweet

Great. Nice and easy to walk around, plenty of animals, loved the monkey and tiger exhibits

Kids loved it

Great family day out

Excellent. Not huge but really well laid out. Good value.

Good zoo to bring the kids. Reasonably priced as well. Lots of open space for the animals.

Kids really enjoyed it, great animals and beautifully presented.

You're very close to the animals, top set up, I loved it. Took my elderly parents, ( both use walkers ) they had no issue with a 4+ hours day. I will be going again and again. 👍

(Translated by Google) it is good (Original) 好

Is great but Torangoo is still better

It is best place to go for kids in school holiday.

Lovely for a casual half day. Short walk. Easy parking. Kids had a ball...

first time there well organised with the pathway

It's a bit of a smaller zoo but there's so much to see!

(Translated by Google) The zoo is not too big or small. Come down to have lunch in a circle, line up twice to see penguins and see snakes and lizards, and have lunch leisurely, and it will be over in three hours. The children are not very tired. The distance is convenient. I want to do it. Annual card (Original) 不大不小的动物园，一圈下来吃个午饭，排两次队看企鹅和看蛇蜥蜴，悠哉吃个午饭，三个小时就结束了，小朋友也没有很累，距离哪里都方便，想办年卡常来

Great place for both people and animals.

Good Family Day out, The animals are well looked after, well designed Zoo.

Very beautiful place nice very clean open space must go if you stay on the west.

Good collection of animals. Foods in the eatery are overpriced though.

It was a nice trip with kids

The zoo was a lot smaller than I expected. (Taronga zoo is lot bigger) Zoo is very new and overall we had a good day. Make sure you buy tickets online because of covid. The Ferris wheel cost an additional $8 per person. Plenty of toilets and eateries around the zoo. Zoo is overall very neat and clean. You can hire baby prams at the front. Heaps of family enjoying a day out and having get togethers in the eating areas. Reasonably priced.

Loved it, kids enjoyed it too. It was quite a hot day but it is very well planned with all the shades and water fans etc. Only complaint I have is the food...very expensive - $20 for a hot dog meal!! Though the pricing is in line with any other theme parks etc.

Great experience. Well set out and plenty of room for heaps of people to see the animals. We didn't feel like we had to fight for a good position. The kids loved it.

Nice flat ground well maintained easy to see animals although a few were hiding

Decent little zoo. Not massive by any means but certainly some fun for a day out. Glad I checked it out.

Perfect size and enough ice cream and shade stops to make for a great day out with the family

Our family enjoyed every moment. It was quite hot the day we went, so the added mist sprays under the shelters at most enclosures were great.

Has huge area to walk in and watch animals. It could be more better if there were variety of wildlife.

Amazing

Renees favorite loves elephants

Apart from the toilets being a little dirty, I can't fault this zoo. Great day out.

Great zoo. Really enjoyed the capybara experience.

Its an amazing day out with friends and family. Lots of great animals too look at. My favourite part is the Australian section where the animals can roam around and you can get up close to your favourite Aussie animals.

Mostly a friendly walking environment...with misting apparatus throughout...helps make the day better during the heat of the day

Well planned out. Great outing for the family. Can easy get around in about 4 hrs

We love this zoo and have the yearly membership, definitely worth it if you live nearby!

Zoo is OK... kids play area lacking ... boring food

Great place, kids loved it.

Didn't really know what to expect walking in but I was pleasantly surprised. It's a decent size especially if you just want a quick trip around however if you are looking for more variety Taronga is definitely the place to go. Was a bit disappointed I only saw one water refill station around, yes it isn't a big place but this was a let down especially when waiting in lines but the shades and water mists/fans throughout was a nice touch especially on a hot day. Also I had a few questions that sadly had to go unanswered as there were no staff around to ask. I understand with Covid it may be difficult to have full staff on but it wouldn't hurt to follow Tarongas example and offer volunteer opportunities so at least information can be on offer to guests. These few tweaks would have made all the difference to the day but was still and enjoyable day.

Easily accessible, nice and flat, could see most of the animals and staff very helpful

Prices should really be taken into consideration. I can't buy tickets with single income and kids. I believe there are lots of others who wished that tickets were cheaper so they could visit.

Levely place for family and kids to visit. Structured very well.

The staff was amazing friendly and the experience was perfect

Great exhibits spread out to ensure overcrowding. Clean facilities and lots of food options to choose from.

Nice little day out and a good educational adventure! 😊🐍#PK21

Great place to spend a day with a family.

The Animals need more shelter and some maybe a pool

Great for kids

Thoroughly enjoyed a visit with the family. Well thought out zoo, not too big, with good covid-safe practices. We booked for the 9am slot on a weekend so parking was a breeze, it was less crowded and there was no queue for entry. We spent 2 hours here including short breaks. That allowed us to cover all areas. (By the time we left just before noon there were queues and car park was very full. ) They've certainly taken advantage of the vast space they have, which means spacious areas for the animals, and for us humans it meant wide walkways, multiple vantage points to see each exhibit, various rest areas and less crowding. Also lots of man-made shade and misting fans everywhere to keep cool on hot days. A very nice and different addition to the other zoos and wildlife places we already have in Sydney.

Great zoo especially for little kids! Not much shade though.

Although I don't agree with animals enclosed in cages. The animals seemt very relaxed. Was an enjoyable day with the famz

Had an amazing time with the family. A nice little zoo suitated at Western Sydney. The different areas are well laid out and can be completed within 4 hrs. Just a suggestion, kids zone should have some more play equipment and maybe a splash zone to help the kids cool down in the hot summer. All in all an awesome experience.

The animals looked like rescue animals

Love it. Perfect size Great animal display

Awesome place all zoo animals are well maintained and good amount of shades to take rest , awesome for kids half day trip ,and make sure buy tickets online

Excellent place to visit good layout plenty of different animals

Really good day out. The animals all look happy and great open enclosures. Easy walking. Although it was hot on the day we attended there is a lot of shared areas with misting. Find was good and coffee was hot.. We will go back

great place for parents with prams. easy walking and easy access and good to see animals up close

Had a great day out with the family and a couple of the kids friends. The gazebos with the water misters were awesome, especially as it was such a hot day. The staff were amazing and nearly all the animals were out.

Good zoo for the western areas. 2 hrs Max and your done without kids.

It was a great experience. Perfect for family with young kids, the size of the zoo that made it perfect. Kids were satisfied that they have seen all the animals and attractions without being too tired.

Nice zoo and very Covid safe . Easy to get around and plenty of shade. Most of the animals were active which was great! Couple downsides , bull shark, we didn’t see one , does it exist there ? Cost of food a bit rich and the animal encounters not affordable for all . Apart from that I’d recommend this zoo

Perfect family day out!!

Great for young kids and a couple of hours out of the house

Love this zoo so much

I need to go back as we didn't get a chance to see everything. Found it great for prams, child friendly and with the flat ground it's very easy to get around. No stairs! The animals- well from what we actually got to see were great! I liked it and would love to go back.

Great new zoo

Nice

This zoo may be a little small, but the enclosures are very good. Quite clearly the animals are comfortable and well looked after. Many of the enclosures allow visitors to see the animals from several different vantages, offering excellent photo opportunities. Very kid friendly, and all the paths are level and easily traversed, even for those with difficulty in walking. We visited during the pandemic and the facilities for safe and clean interaction are available everywhere. We will be coming back.

Nice place well organised rare animals

Great to have a zoo in the west. Entry was little high with food even higher in price. Most animals were sleeping which was a little disappointing

It was a great experience. I recommend specially for young kids or orderly. Easy to walk and finish all the attractions. Lots of resting areas. Big food court.

Thought it was expensive Most of the animals weren't active, hidden and only 1x food outlet open Diisapointed ...

WARNING - DO NOT WEAR EXPENSIVE EARINGS. THERE IS AN EMU WHO IS A REAPEAT OFFENDER FOR STEALING EARINGS AND YOU WILL NOT BE WARNED BY THE STAFF

Great zoo, big. Not a lot of shade but a good amount of room and atmosphere

New zoo with lots of open space. Poor aquarium though and the tanks look a little dirty. Also can definitely use some more shades for the summer.

Great place

good place for family

Decent little zoo in western Sydney. The zoo isn't huge and you could see everything (at a decent pace) within 2 hours, but add an hour (or less) if you want to stop and eat too. The entire zoo is relatively flat in terms of terrain, so it's accessible for everyone with no big hills to walk up or down. Gravel / dirt paths everywhere with shelter stations spread out across the zoo that have water mist sprays to keep you cool in the heat. Plenty of animals and a good layout to be able to see them, even for little children. The aquarium was great and the section for the nocturnal animals was impressive for a zoo of their size. There are plenty of places to eat and the range of food catered for pretty much all dietary requirements and there's ample on-site parking. The gift shop had a lovely range of items. Toilet facilities were really good and scattered throughout the park. Clear signage in general too. Recommended for a shorter day out or for those with young children (because we all know that attention spans and patience only goes so far). Their annual pass prices are reasonable and if it's somewhere that you pass regularly, that might be a good option for you, as it's less pressure to get your ticket value in one day out.

Great zoo very easy to walk around and plenty to see

Took 3 of my grandsons here and they loved it! They said it was better than Taronga Park!

I personally think Toronga is a better park but that has a a lot to do with its beautiful location. I did really enjoy their elephant exhibit

Sydney zoo is incredible. The enclosures have been well thought about and look similar to what each animal would have in the wild. There are plenty of animals including lions, tigers, elephants and monkeys. The walk is easy with nothing too uphill and it is relatively flat and pram friendly. The zoo also has an eating area right next to the meerkats, so you can eat your lunch and enjoy watching the meerkats run around. The Ferris wheel is also a nice touch.

Love this place! Highly recommended for the family

Well laid out Zoo with easy walking tracks that allow excellent vantage points to views the animals. Staff are super friendly and helpful.

All the animals looked healthy and as happy as you could be when you're in a zoo. Lovely staff. Great layout. 😸

Awesome

Very nice place to visit, easy to get around, lots of parking, very interesting to all ages. Only thing I can't recommend is the food. I got so sick after having a chicken poke bowl.

Nice flat walk, and interesting displays. Even in Covid, a nice calm atmosphere

Great for children and seniors.

Awesome place ! Beata Taronga zoo!

Excellent displays and Conditions for the Animals

Outstanding day, even with a bit of rain. Can't wait to see what it'll be like in the future!

The zoo was well set out and it was very clean

Lovely open spaces, plenty of room to move around and see the exhibits. Much smaller than other zoos, can be done in a few hours. No steps or hills, easily accessed by all ages and abilities. Membership is well worth it, great value and 10% off in stores/cafes when you're there.

Good day out for the kids. go when raining to avoid crowds

Great zoo, with a wide variety of animals. Only problem is that it wasn't that enjoyable as it was on a hot day and the animals just sat and wouldn't do anything.

Had great experience and appreciate the management for accommodating a prayer room

It was a great afternoon out with lots of different animals to see. It followed covid guidelines. I will definitely be going again

Fantastically modern clean and spacious smaller scale zoo! The enclosures seem to be designed in such a way that the animal can be easily viewed, we were lucky enough to see most animals actively going about their day! Giraffes lions tigers various different species of monkeys to name but a few, the aquarium is great, the queue to the nocturnal animals was a little to long so we decided to give it a miss, So happy this zoo is pram and wheelchair friendly as it's pretty much all flat, the staff are helpful and informative, plenty of readily available FREE parking... My children loved our day out as did I, so thankful we bought those annual passes most definitely worth it! Well done Sydney zoo keep up the great work!

The way the attractions are setup is great. Animals don't look like they're caged as the barrier is low, creating a more natural way to view them.

Awesome place. But please remember sunscreen

Awesome place for the family. Big range of animals there.

What a great adventure walking around the Sydney Zoo . Heaps of food areas and toilets. Fantastic access to all the animals.

A bit pricey for the entrance fee but a must go for families.

Very clean and kids enjoyed watching big animals such as lions, a tiger, and a giraffe.

Amazing - go by 1pm - most animals are active around this time!

A beautiful park suitable for young children and adults. Great to see rescued animals thriving and spending their last years being nurtured in safety. Food could be better priced with more options.

Excellent service friendly staff ❤

Loved Sydney Zoo. Plenty of parking space, very pram friendly as it's mostly flat, huge viewing areas meant we got to see all the animals easily despite being there on a Sunday, plenty of food options (Including Halal options) and seating, and surprisingly good barrista coffee. Place definitely has a "new" vibe to it, and it's kept clean with plenty of sanitiser stations. It's smaller than Taronga, but still quite impressive in size, and more practical and convenient if you want to spend a good afternoon exoring animals and having a nice stroll.

Great place for a visit, close to motorway and plenty of parking, it is not huge and mostly flat so easy to cover the whole thing even with kids and strollers, can pet some animals.

Really easy walk and very well presented.

Awesome place!!! Thank you so much .Keep going!!!

Zoo is great to walk around. Staff are friendly. Animals have great enclosures where you can actually see them.

Pretty good, but bigger pens than Taronga for animals but there was some sizeable queues for the aquarium and aussie animal area. Didn’t bother with aquarium as we waited ages for indoor aussie reptiles already. but overall the zoo is good. And we saw the majority of it. It’s bigger than Taronga. But not by much. But biggest and best zoo I’ve been to is still the Lowry Park zoo in Tampa Bay, Florida. You want to see a massive zoo, go there, you literally go on a safari to see everything.

Absolutely awesome place! All the animals are very active and playful in their enclosure 😁

Not the best zoo experience, only because the animal pens only held 1 or 2 of each type of animal. They also lied about the echidnas, there are no echidnas.

Very nice place. My kid loves it everytime we go. Can experience animals from so close and kids can sometimes touch the Emus amd Kangaroos as they come strolling out of their areas.

While not as large as Taronga, this zoo is a great place to go, especially with young kids. It's mostly flat, making for easy walking, and the animal habitats are huge. It's great to see different animals, like Zebras and ostriches, coexisting happily. Good selection of food too, including some healthier choices like sushi in amongst the burgers and hot dogs.

better than my expectation

Such a great place for toddlers!

weekday的时候人比较少，也适合拍照，沿路设计的遮阳喷水雾的凉亭也不错～小孩玩的很开心～

Very good place to visit with family and children's. Safe and neat. Many food stalls to grab in !!

Such an amazing facility! We had the absolute best day. The staff were all lovely and there were so many helpful volunteers. The animal exhibits were well maintained and very large, giving a natural feel and freedom rarely experienced by animals in captivity. The conservation efforts of the zoo are commendable and even the food was delicious! The lion feed experience was incredible. Such beautiful, majestic animals. The Park also has great facilities for kids and our toddler loved it. Thanks for making my birthday so enjoyable!

Wonderful adventure for all ages. So much to see. Great facilities. You can do the whole park by hop on hop off bus but most of it is also accessible by walking tracks. We did the Lion 360 tour and it was fantastic.

Could not recommend more!!!! Super lovely informative staff. The lion 360 experience with the feeding was incredible!!

The lion feed experience was amazing, we were lucky enough to see the whole pride including the cubs. The lionesses and cubs were the ones we got to feed, the males were a little lazy. The giraffe exhibition was amazing too, all the giraffes were out and feeding. All the keepers are amazing and friendly. In general it was a great experience.

Amazing experience for kids and adults alike. Highly recommended. Entry is very affordable. We thought its too cheap to keep up with the running cost of this place. Well done to SA government, management and staff and thank you.

Great place to spend the day. I'm always for supporting and preserving animals and the environment. I like a lot of the programs that Monarto and Adelaide Zoo are part of. I'm all for raising money when its being spent well, but it should be up to the individual. The park fees are reasonable and the items for sale and the experiences are reasonable, but the food prices are disgraceful and out of touch which in my eyes is seriously gouging its visitors. I'm in favour of supporting the staff and paying them a decent wage, but this isn't the airport which i also find shocking. 5.70 for a bottle of water or a soda is poor form. Everything else that I'm aware of with Monarto I'm happy with. I would rather pay for for other things that be ripped off so badly for food and drink.

We had a wonderful day @ Monarto, you get up close to the animals in the bus. We did the Lions 360 & loved it. Every guide we had has so much knowledge & happy to impart it. We also lucked out getting a guide from Tanzania & Kenia doing our Lion 360. Funny, informative & with real life experience. Thank you Monarto we will be back

Really enjoyed my first time there. There were some terrific staff giving out information I didn't know I'd find so interesting. I definitely walked out of there with some knowledge I wasn't aware of before visiting. The enclosures and environments were gorgeous as were the animals inhabiting them, and the food was also great. I put together a video of the experience so I could relive it. - Daniel Baker

Best zoo yet!

Crowded. Not adequate bus service.

Lion experience was amazing, Park is well laid out, food very expensive.

Fabulous! Had the best day with my valentine. Staff were excellent and we loved our time with the animals

Great day out.Great bunch of volunteers.

Great value for money

If your visiting SA and like animals. Go to Monarto safari Park. Wonderful conservation and breeding programs.

My most favourite Zoo

Great experience

Amazing up close experience with free roaming animals!

Great experience! Loved the lions360, got to see all the animals up pretty close with just being on the bus, kids 6 & 3yrs want to go back tomorrow!

Loved it

So much fun!! The kids loved it , friendly and helpful staff :) highly recommend

Africa without the flight, great spot, loved it

The experience of going around on a bus why being told information is wonderfully they also give you the opportunity to get of and walk up to get a better look at the animals and there buses are always going around every 15 mins to pick you up and move on to the next one

Highly recommended for a day out, good staff including volunteers, typically could spent around 4 to 5 hours inside the zoo.

This is a great zoo where all the animals are given a lot of space. The hop on hop off bus tours are really good, taking you up close to the animals.

Absolutely a great place to take the whole family you can get up close to nearly all the animals

Worth it

Great family day

Great day out saw this chungus of a rhino

My family loved our day out at the Monarto Safari Park! A great experience for the family to see a variety of animals, some of which are no longer in the wild. Staff are friendly and accommodating with prams etc getting on and off the buses. 🦍🦁🐯🦓🦌

Great place

Very well managed, great service ! Loved the giraffes !

Variety of Animals. Hand sanitizer all over. Loved the info on animals

Good way to getting close to nature and out in a wild. Kids definitely loves this.

This is such a wonderful zoo, the whole family loves coming here. The largest open range zoo in the southern hemisphere, every time we go here it gets better and better. The new chimp enclosure is definitely worth the short walk and it's clear the staff and volunteers really care about the animals.

It was amazing

Saw animals you wouldn't normally see at other zoos. Also saw them up close and personal!! Staff and volunteers were super friendly. Great day out

It was an adventure...The Hyenas eating the bus tyres was astounding...They came so close and had no fear

Good day and entertaining.

Great park. Lions 360 and putting the Lions to bed and feeding them was awesome! Highly recommended.

To far away from animals on bus very dissapointed for the money

Great opportunity to see animals in the wild. Far more humane than a regular zoo.

Nice location for short time visit. Good collection of animals. Highly Recommend for kids and short term visitors

Totally in love with this place as it has everything I love, toddler friendly place with a huge area so social distancing could be easily maintained and it's near to my place so I don't have to go all the way to city to visit zoo!! We get an annual pass as this is going to be my one of the most visiting places with my Lil one!! I love the way they divided area wise with the animals,and everything is so well structured!!

It's always great experience visiting the new western Sydney zoo! You're able to spend some quality time with the kids at the zoo where they get to know all the animals and also having the opportunity to pet and feed some of them!

Excellent place for kids and Adults ... You can spend the whole day ... Prayers place is available along with Abulution area ... My son Loved it

An amazing collection of animals, nice open spaces for the bigger animals. Typical zoo prices with regards to food and drinks etc. Otherwise a great day out for a few hours.

Went there in February with my nephews and niece. For a place that's small, and new compared to Taronga, Sydney Zoo is still pretty impressive. It's more accessible, not as steep as Taronga, so it makes walking around much easier, and the animals are well grouped and organised based on the themes, and continents. Looking forward to visiting again soon, and hopefully in the future, the zoo may expand, so we can see, and learn more in person.

It was a very beautiful experience, it was our first time, I went wearing same outfits with my family,lots of compliments... I made those myself, Check out Qbrandy44 on Instagram if you would like to look fabulous with your family. ❤

Much easier to walk around and to park your car compared to Tarronga Zoo. Plus the car park is free.

Love this place,easy to walk around, staff are always friendly.

A new addition to Sydney’s west. A good 3 hour activity for young and old. Catering availability with healthy options. Ample parking, souvenir store. Does lack shade in some areas and I thought some of the enclosures are to small. But overall a fun experience.

Had a lovely morning at the zoo. Ate lunch at the zoo Cafe and the food was cooked fresh and very yummy. Not too busy due to being a cloudy day.

Awesome place. Wide and open space. Big cafeteria; highly recommended for families, couples, or for a solo adventure.

A very nice place to spent a good time with family and kids. Very spacious and very kid friendly. A total value of money. Totally worth the membership

Leisurely 2.30 hours and you'll have seen it all slightly disappointed no birds ,platypus but for $40 was ok use your discover voucher only $14,95

What a wonderful experience! The staff are all knowledgeable and helpful, the misters REALLY help on hot days and the zoo itself is lovely. Was great to see the capybaras out and playing too.

Had a great time visiting Sydney zoo for the first time, easy to find and parking is free which was a bonus. The line to enter was long but went pretty quickly, once inside getting around was easy as everything Is well signed and in a loop. roos hopping around and lazing on grass area with emus was amazing to see. It's a very close up experience as long as you respect their space, it's very flat and no stairs so getting around is easy, very accessible especially for those who are disabled, they have scooters to rent if you need it. Animals are very friendly which is nice they don't shy away from people and many will approach you to say hello.

Great Zoo with a lot of thought put into planning the layout and the animals within. There's a mix of African and Australian animals on display outdoors as well as aquatic and nocturnal indoors. The kids can interact to an extent with the Australian animals. There are plenty of shaded areas and cafes to sit down, relax and escape the hot summer periods. Even though it gets busy thete is plenty of parking which id easy to get too off the highway. Check in moves quickly also.

My kids enjoyed the trip. The staff are friendly and helpful. The zoo is clean and its not crowded. Highly recommended. Worth every cent. ✨✨✨

Nice zoo with a wide range of animals especially the Australian Animal exhibit. Loved it and the natural water sprays throughout the exhibits. Well thought team. Thanks it helped everybody to get through on hot days. Will definitely recommend!!!!

First time here at Sydney Zoo. Travelling from south Sydney, was a breeze to get to the zoo. Very Covid safe for all the family. The zoo had a wide variety of different animals and plenty of places to sit down and cool off as well. All in all, it took us around 2hrs to navigate the entirety of the zoo. The staff are very friendly too. The big plus this zoo has… you are very close to most of the animals and this makes great viewing and photography. Highly enjoyable for all the family- al in all a great day out.

Not a bad zoo. They offer a 5:30pm option but toilets and cafes were closed as well as the gift shop. Lots of empty areas and some animals not on display after 5pm which they don’t tell you about. Display glass was dirty in most displays which made getting photos hard.

Excellent way to spend your day. The zoo keepers are simply amazing. The animal feeding sessions and talks are great. You can see the animals so close during the talks. The best was the Koala talk where the koala was actively eating and really close. A lovely emu was having a walk around and she was so happy! Plenty of animal enclosures, a reptiles section, and an aquarium. Cafes, water, and toilets around everywhere in the zoo. Also, the retail shop has some really nice stuff at great prices. Must visit!

The West Sydney Zoo is great! Large variety of animals, lots of shaded area's and misting fans to keep you cool as you walk around... Cool water stations are everywhere to refill your personal water bottles. The walkways are great for strollers and wheelchairs... no stairs!!! The Bull Shark tank is amazing! And the Lions and Hyena's are gorgeous!! Yearly membership prices are great value.

We went for sunset experience... It wasn't crowded.... It wasn't hot.... Nice and cool if you have kids and a better time if you have toddlers....The only rip off is the indoor cafe.... Angus beef burgers not cooked fresh...meat was double cooked and dry... Bring your own sandwiches and get drinks better. not much choice of dinner than lunch time menu... You won't get any tour guide or shows during this time... Most of the animals were resting.. overall it was a good day out....

Awesome zoo for the West 🤙💯👌 Plenty of animals. Awesome Ferris wheel (extra charge) heaps of enjoyment for children and adults of all ages. Keep your eyes and ears out for the guides advising of stories and explanations of specific animals and extra encounters (extra charge of course) but overall will return. Ensure to book online for bookings and better pricing (than at the gate)

A great local zoo with a good collection of animals. Myself and my family have been here many times and we love it. Accessible for prams and wheelchairs to all areas. All animals are well looked after and staff are friendly. Clean toilets. Multiple food options and a ferries wheel. Plenty of free parking on site. Overall a great zoo to spend 3 - 4 hours with family.

This zoo is amazing, and will give great experience for kids and adults. It is not a large zoo, but well designed with nature, good range of animals, very clean facilities, friendly staff, enough parking slots, and there are more shaded areas along the way. I and my family friends visited this zoo, and had an interesting experience. Our kids really enjoyed the day out.

Took my two young kids here last Thursday and was pleasantly surprised. Free and convenient parking, great logical flow through the exhibits with plenty of toilet blocks which was a huge bonus for a newly toilet trained 2 yr old. Great visibility of the animals without feeling too intrusive. Completely pram accessible and easy to navigate. The yearly pass is definitely worth it! Only down sides were the expensive food/drinks (that’s expected) so bring you’re own if you’re on a budget and that the cafes probably weren’t staffed appropriately which left one staff member on both the register and coffee machine.

A good place to go with family. Lots of exhibits with a variety of animals including lions, tigers, elephants, kangaroos, koalas, snakes and crocodile. You can do the entire zoo tour in about 2 hours.

Love this zoo! It's the best equipped to manage massive crowds during public holidays. But the earlier you come the better. Definitely recommend getting the annual membership because it makes it a great place to regularly hangout especially if you have young kids.

Amazing zoo! We loved the glow night. It's a great zoo which is nice and close to home. Flat ground without hills. Really enjoyed our time there. Highly recommended.

Plenty of parking & so easy to walk around. Wheelchair & pram friendly. Animals were active so we got to see nearly all the different species. Staff were fantastic and the info talks were great.

This zoo is so much fun, it’s pretty friendly to all the young kids, because it’s so flat. There are so many educational moments for the kids! Even I learned a lot from the staff’s explanation! The staffs are very friendly as well! Thank you for the Tasmania devil zoo keepers, the Penguins zoo keepers, the camel zoo keepers especially. We had lovely time with you guys!

Wonderful experience, mostly flat so its an easy walk and the animal enclosures all have good viewing access. Parking is free and there is a lot of it, but it fills quickly. I have always found parking. They have a large food area as well as a number of smaller kiosks around the park. Lots for the kids to like, including a couple of carnival type rides.

Very nice zoo! Loved the zoo keepers interacting and providing detailed interesting information on the animals. Staffing seemed short, and a lot was closed. That's the only thing that kept this from being a 5-star experience.

We enjoyed there a lot. Zoo has been divided on the basis of continents animals belong to. Kids can learn many things out of it. Also worth it to give a visit to aquarim inside. On the other hands I dnt know whether it was because of the wild life park theme or that it needs to be more tidy. Canteen area was congested may be because of the Saturday. Free parking is also a good feature.

Buy tickets and enter the gate very quickly, no need to wait too long. The zoo is massive, with many typical Australian animals and animals from Europe and Asia. Staff are very friendly and willing to help visitors. A zoo in Australia worth visiting.

The BEST zoo ever 🥹🥹 There’s a lot of precious animals to encounter!! Like Camel, Capybara, Crocodile, Elephant, Giraffe, Hyena, Lion, Meekat, Squirrel Monkey, Red Panda, Reptile and Tiger🤩 For the Reptile Encounter, you are able to get closer with their living place in the zoo, knowing how’s the zookeepers take care of them every day, feeding the frogs and taking some cooler pictures with the snake while touching them🥰🥰🥰 The animals here are beautiful. It’s easy to tell that they must be taking GOOD care of!!! Thanks Sydney Zoo for protecting our beautiful creatures. Strongly recommend to visit this Zoo in Sydney!! Can’t wait to encounter every animal here🤩🤩

A small and compact zoo. But it is easy to navigate. Koala here was the most active and adorable compared to Queensland and Victoria. AUD25 was the fee to get a closeshot photo by zookeeper. Besides 2 printed copies, we were also able to download 15 digital copies of different shots taken. Highly recommended Feeding kangaroo here was also quite fun. But kangaroo here only interested in carrot. We also noticed emu wandering around, but feeding emu today was not possible as the emu was not in a good mood today.

We went to Sydney Zoo today - Wednesday 27th September 2023. It was pleasantly warm - around 32°C by 12pm. The maps - when given - were a great help in navigating the zoo. The Broadwalk was great as you could see the animals so much easier when looking down into the enclosures. It was, however, very crowded (probably due to it being holiday time for NSW schools) and areas such as The Nocturnal House were particularly noisy. Most Nocturnal Houses have quiet signs around and that is usually adhered to - within reason - by the visitors. The mist sprays at the various stops around the zoo were really welcome. Those stops had shelter from the sun. There were quite a few food areas. The food was way overpriced. The menu at the smaller food areas was limited and they didn't have quick walk along food. The menu had full meals only. It is not comparable to either of the Taronga Zoos. Both Taronga and Western Plains have a variety of travel modes to assist with the movement of people to different areas of the zoo e.g. Taronga has the sky lift to get people from the top end to the bottom end or vice versa. Western Plains has carts and bikes for hire as well as being able to drive your own car or take your own bike to get around the zoo. Sydney Zoo is a smallish zoo and when we went up in the ferris wheel it didn't look like there was spare land in which it could expand. We generally add an encounter or two to our zoo or wild life park visits. Our grandson has been having encounters with a variety of animals from zoos and animal parks from Cairns to Sydney since he was four. He is now 7 - so it was disappointing that most of the encounters he would have been interested in were for children 8 years and above. Overall I would give Sydney Zoo a 2.5 but I had to do a 3 as the review wouldn't allow me to do a 2.5.

Great zoo to visit with the kids. Pram and wheelchair friendly. Just wish all the cafes and kicks would stay open longer throughout the zoo. Only the main one remains open the longest.

A great day out. All the staff were extremely friendly. We enjoyed lunch in the new beer garden, with relaxing musical entertainment. Well worth a visit.

I absolutely adored my experience at Sydney zoo. Booking online meant we saved a bit of money. The zoo itself was so well looked after, so clean and lovely to look at. We did 3 animal experiences and all of the handlers who ran them were so so amazing at getting information across as well as giving us a great experience with the animals. The animals themselves were amazing to meet (red panda, lions and meerkats). Would absolutely recommend this place to all.

Really enjoyed this zoo as part of our Klook Tour to the blue mountains. There was so much to see but so little time. Really enjoyed feeding the kangaroos and taking pictures of the koalas. This zoo seems that it really pays attention to take care of the animals and ensure that they have similar conditions as they would in the wild. Even for the koala photo taking session. the staff told us that we are not able to touch them as it stresses them out. Which was sad but undestood it was best for the animals

We went to the zoo today and did a tiger feeding experience. The staff were great and the experience was a lot of fun. Sandy in particular was amazing. The only down side was there was some sort of session time where you were meant to leave at 1 instead of 5 but none of the staff had been told about it. We got there at 10:30 so we didnt leave at 1 as we hadn’t even seen half the zoo yet after doing our animal encounter but when we did leave we tried to check out the Christmas tent but were told our session was over and we couldn’t go in despite paying for it which seemed pretty pathetic. Overall a good day out.

The scale of the zoo is small, but it's focus on Australian animals is excellent. The aquarium, nocturnal house (don't skip this one, it's unique in bringing you face to face with the lizards, snakes and frogs from across Australia) Kangaroo and Koala encounters delivered. You need under two hours to soak in the experience.

Nice Zoo with all visable animals. The best parts are reptiles and aquarium. Taking photo with Koalas is joyful as you can get very close to them. The homelands of the animals have perfectly designed and they seem happy. The interesting part is Africa land with all giraffes, zebras, ostriches and rhinos together. Different Cafe and restaurant are available in different spots, drinkable water is acceptable every where and it was amazing that fans with moist could cool down people in higher temperatures. Toilets were clean and restaurants foods are good. We enjoyed a lot
