National Zoo and Aquarium Information
The National Zoo & Aquarium (NZA) provides the only zooquarium experience in Australia. The impressive animals at the NZA come from all around the world providing a truly memorable experience. Monkeys, bears, snakes, sharks, marine life, giraffes, and the largest collection of Big Cats in Australia can all be seen at the NZA. The Zoo has some of the largest enclosures for traditional city zoos’, as well as the largest inland aquarium. The NZA prides itself on providing an interactive approach with animals.
The Zooventure tour allows you the chance of a lifetime, to hand feed tigers, have bears lick honey from your fingers, and meet the entire family of the NZA. This unforgettable tour makes it possible for you to learn all about your favourite animals and their natural habitats, through the help of your experienced guide.
The Meet-a-Cheetah encounter puts you and one of our expert keepers in the cheetah enclosure, where you can pat Tanzi and Robi or even cuddle Shasa.
These interactive zoo experiences bring people safely closer to these magnificent animals. This interaction allows visitors to build a relationship with the animals and understand the work of the National Zoo & Aquarium Conservation Team (NZACT). This team's goal is to educate visitors on conservation issues in the wild, and to ensure the future existence of exotic and rare animals in the wild. Visit the National Zoo & Aquarium for "a Touching Experience".
