Sydney is one of those cities that has something in store for travelers from all walks of life—including those visiting with their entire family. If your little ones adore animals, zoos are the first place you should take them to, and here are three that you shouldn’t miss in this Australian metropolis.

Taronga Zoo

This harborside zoo is the most popular in all of Sydney, and it covers an enormous area of 69 acres. There are over 2,600 animals of approximately 250 different species on its grounds, including some rare native species, but you can also explore a zoo shop, café, and information center during your visit.

This zoo may seem quite modest when compared to Taronga, but your little ones could still find it quite exciting. It will win you over with its diverse native and exotic wildlife, an aquarium with penguins, and hands-on animal encounters it has in store.

Wild Life Sydney

This zoo and wildlife park is divided into ten zones, dedicated to some of Australia’s most beloved native animals. In addition to these exhibits, Wild Life Sydney is well-known for the wide range of experiences it offers to its guests, such as guided tours and breakfast with the koalas.
