*** Glamping inside Taronga Zoo with Sydney Harbour views
The Experience
Roar And Snore places guests inside Taronga Zoo grounds for an overnight stay that includes after-hours access to the zoo. The experience offers guided night tours and early morning walks led by passionate and knowledgeable keepers. Guests can hear lions roaring and chimpanzees romping from their tents throughout the night.
Accommodations
The safari-style tents have electric blankets and cooling units, with grounds that include a central area for meals and drinks. Shared bathroom and shower facilities are private, with tiled floors, modern fixtures, and included shower gel. Each tent accommodates up to four guests and offers a view of Sydney Harbour.
Dining
The on-site restaurant serves African and barbecue grill cuisines with gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan, and dairy-free options available at dinner and breakfast. A free continental breakfast is included, and a buffet dinner with wine and beer is also part of the package. Dessert is served at the campsite overlooking the harbour before the night tour.
Animal Encounters
Guests hand-feed giraffes before Taronga Zoo opens to the public and meet chimpanzees during a behind-the-scenes tour. The program includes up-close encounters with a Sumatran tiger and a seal. A guide leads a 40-minute night walk with a red torch to see nocturnal animals active after dark.
Location & Access
Located in the affluent suburb of Mosman, the hotel is 700 meters from Athol Beach and 10 km from Circular Quay. Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport is 20 km away, and guests receive a complimentary parking ticket for the zoo. After the program ends at 9:30 am, guests have full-day access to Taronga Zoo.
