💼 Pre-Trip Essentials:
☎️Phone card and charger! To stay connected while traveling in Australia, a local phone card is essential, along with a mobile data card with sufficiently fast internet speed. Don't forget that Australia has special power plugs, so remember to bring your plug adapter and phone charger. Sufficient power will ensure a worry-free trip.
📝Documents are your identification! Don't forget your passport, visa, and driver's license. Your visa should be arranged in advance, and remember that Australia does not issue blank cards. If you plan to rent a car and drive yourself, you will also need to bring an international driver's license.
👕Clothing preparation: Based on Australia's March climate, the days are warm but the nights can be a bit cold. Therefore, it is recommended to wear light and comfortable clothing and casual shoes, and also prepare a thicker garment to cope with the temperature difference between morning and evening.
📷Finally, don't forget to bring your camera! Australia has too many beautiful scenes waiting for you to discover, and you can't miss the opportunity to record these moments! So, SLR cameras, mobile phones, or action cameras are all necessary.

Come to Australia and let the sunshine, beaches, and food amaze you every day. I hope you will fall in love with this desirable place just like I did!
It is more affordable to buy admission tickets on Ctrip. The park is compact and interesting, suitable for families with children. Moreover, the zoo is near Darling Harbour in the city, which is a good choice for tourists with limited time.
The zoo is not big but well designed. It is located in Lover's Harbor, with many restaurants and ferries nearby. The transportation is very convenient. The highlight is taking photos with koalas. 35 dollars for two people, you can get 2 photos on the spot. It is suitable for traveling with the elderly and children, and want to see kangaroos, koalas and Australian native animals. It is a short trip of 1-2 hours.
It is convenient and interesting to visit attractions in Sydney. If you have two or three hours to spare and it is not convenient to walk far, this is a place worth a short break. It is recommended to buy tickets on Ctrip, which is convenient for payment and has discounts.
This is an indoor zoo. It is located on the Darling Harbour, with the Australian National Naval Museum on the other side. It is backed by the Western Expressway and the Sydney city center, with convenient transportation. The park covers a small area, but has vertical stratification to increase its space utilization. The park is divided into rainforest, kangaroo, koala, reptile, crocodile, night viewing areas, etc. The content density is high, and you can have close contact with animals such as koalas and kangaroos. However, due to the limitations of indoor conditions, it is impossible to achieve a wild beauty that returns to nature, and the richness and diversity of the content are not high. In short, this is a good zoo, but it is not recommended to come here specifically.
This wildlife park is highly recommended. It's definitely worth visiting than Taronga Zoo. The koalas here can be seen at close range. Although they can't be touched, they are full of eyesight. There are also a variety of wildlife, such as the most ferocious blue-crowned birds and ostriches, the greenhouse butterfly house is also very good, there is a butterfly specimen in the middle of the round platform, very amazing!
The Sydney Wildlife Park is very large with thousands of animals. There are many pavilions, such as butterflies flying, ridgeless world, creeping alien races, Canyon flying, midnight lost track, hot sun, tropical rain forest, kangaroo cliff, Australian baby and semi-arid prairie. But the most attractive thing is the lovely koala, with a dull face, and really want to hold him close.
The Sydney Wildlife Park is right next to Daring Harbour. I stayed at the Four Seasons Hotel in the ring pier. I took the navigation in my Apple mobile phone and went to the Wildlife Park in Daring Harbour. In fact, beside the wildlife park, there are aquariums and wax museum, which are all in one, but they have to buy tickets separately to enter. I ordered it in advance in a certain treasure, print it out and go to the front desk to change tickets. The wildlife park is not very big, but it is very well managed and super clean. There are not many but all kinds of animals. The crocodile is very big and lurks quietly in the water. Kangaroos gather in groups like parents, mothers and children. Koalas sleep for a long time because they eat too many Eucalyptus leaves. In addition, they spend 20 Australian dollars to take a picture with Koalas. The staff are very friendly and inquiring. Answer, helped me take a lot of pictures for me with my mobile phone. Koala grew very long, but his temper was very fierce. Be careful of his claws. I will take my children to a rare zoo in the center of the city.
I like animals very much. Although I am an adult, I still like to go to the zoo. And I didn't go to such a sightseeing car zoo when I was a child. It happened to make up for the regret of my childhood in Chiang Mai, hahahaha. My friend and I took her son to play together. Along the way, the child was also very happy. My friend and I looked at the animals, chatted, and accompanied the children~ It's a good place to take the kids out! The most important thing to enter the park: you must exchange cash coupons! The only common currency in the entire park, nothing is accepted, or you can use UnionPay cards. We didn't change it. We wanted to buy water, but we didn't have money to buy things, so we changed it when we walked out! There is also food for feeding animals, which also needs to be bought, 40🐷 a small basket, a very small basket, you can buy a few more baskets to feed giraffes🦒 The animals that can be fed are zebras, sika deer, kangaroos, giraffes, and black bears in the carnivorous area behind. It is said that it eats bananas. When feeding, it is with all the tourists in the sightseeing car. In addition to feeding and visiting, there are also some wild animal performances. They are not acrobatic troupes, very cute, and the trainers are cute. The wild animal performances are just them walking around and performing eating meat. There are also tiger shows and lion shows. Hahahaha, they will also be in a bad mood. If they don’t want to eat, they won’t eat. They will also be fierce to the trainer. It’s so cute! It’s like raising a big cat. There is also a fountain⛲️ performance every night, and the lighting design is very good. There are also song and dance performances in the square, which are very enthusiastic and super passionate. It is recommended to arrive around 3 pm, so that you can have a better experience. Otherwise, the walking area is still very large and you need to rest halfway. We played until 8 o'clock before going home. It was quite tight. I didn’t see the fountain light show~
