Todd Tours · Sydney hotels
Todd Tours picks you up at your hotel, drives the eastern beaches and cliffs in a private car, then takes you into Taronga for two hours with a keeper. Pick it for a full day with no ferries or buses to plan, for a group of up to five.
This is a private day for your own group of up to five. A driver guide collects you at 8:00am and drives a coastal loop: Mrs Macquarie's Chair, Watsons Bay, The Gap, Bondi Beach, Diamond Bay and Dudley Page Reserve, a park with a long view back to the city. Then it's through Mosman to the zoo.
From 1:00pm to 3:00pm you're on the Wild Australia Experience, the zoo's keeper-led tour of its native animals, with a Koala Encounter and areas closed to general visitors. The listing calls this session private, capped at six people including the guide. Drop-off at your hotel is about 3:30pm. Want more of the zoo? You can stay on and take a ferry back to the city at your own cost.
The catch is in the small print. The zoo part is subject to confirmed availability. If a private session isn't free, the listing says you'll be offered a small shared group or the nearest available date, so ask the operator to confirm before you count on it. Nobody holds a koala at Taronga, on this tour or any other. Bottled water and umbrellas are in the car.
