    The brand new Sydney Wildlife World has just opened in Darling Harbour. It is a very good native animal experience for tourists and locals alike. I find when you visit zoo's in big cities you see the same old animals, elephants, monkeys, giraffes etc. If you are after a 100% native experience then SWW is for you. Zoo-oligists wander around the different sections carrying snakes, possums and baby koalas. There is a really cool free service in the zoo. If you switch your bluetooth on in your mobile phone you can choose to download free animal sounds, ringtones, wallpapers and bizarre facts about these fascinating native animals of Australia. The best thing is that it is free to download.

    The Sydney Aquarium is one of the largest and most spectacular Aquariums in the world. Sydney Aquarium is renowned for its unique display of Australian aquatic life. Walk through tunnels beneath the sea and get close to the largest sharks you'll ever see. Enjoy the colour and the magic of live coral and myriads of tropical fish in the Great Barrier Reef display (see picture).

    The Taronga Zoo, the zoo with the views!!! You will not be able to see kangaroos in the streets of Sydney, but you can see them just 12 minutes from the city by ferry in the best place to see Australian's amazing wildlife. The Taronga Zoo features a large selection of Australian fauna plus animals around the word. There's so much to see, you should allow most of a day to cover it all. Highlights include the seals, snow leopards, primates and endangered western lowland gorillas. Native animals too, are strongly - and sometimes impressively - represented. Only I was a little disappointed that most (dangerous) animals are behind glass walls, making photography difficult. That's the big different between the old Zoo of Antwerp and the modern Taronga Zoo. At various times the Zoo runs talks or shows on various aspects of the Zoo and the residents (not the human kind) show off their stuff.

    The Giraffes have the one of the best million dollar views of Sydney. I hope they appreciate it! This is Sydney's Taronga Park Zoo, with its beautiful harbour backdrop to many of the animal enclosures. A very nice zoo, set high on a hill A nice easy way to get there is to take the Ferry from Sydney Harbour

  • Visit the Sydney Aquarium for sure! It is full of all sorts of beautiful fish and has some wonderful displays. I have only been there once but I would go again for sure. I have heard that this is the best aquarium in the southern hemisphere and I believe it. The aquarium is open daily from 9 am to 10 pm.

  • A great place for tourists to visit is Waratah Park in Northern Sydney. This park has a large collection of Kangaroos, Emus and Koalas. You are allowed to go into enclosures and hand feed the emus and kangaroos. A great way to get close to the countries natural animals. This park was also used for the location of a great television show while I was growing up...Skippy the bush Kangaroo. ADDITIONAL NOTE. While in Sydney in June 2004 I read a newspaper article about the closure of the park. This is due to the owner mistreating the animals. There is a chance it has re opened under new management, but call to check before you go there.
