You say 'save up to 30%'
on this website, so how do I get those tickets?
Our General Admission (Single Visit) online tickets are priced
according to the time and date you want to visit. As with other
tickets and experiences that are sold online, from flights to theme
park passes or hotel rooms, the best prices are available during
off peak times, such as late afternoons or weekdays (although we do
occasionally run special discounts during peak times too). That's
not to say that visiting at those times is any different in terms
of experience, as we strive to offer all of our guests a great
experience, no matter when they visit. Aside from the biggest
discounts we offer during off peak times, we also guarantee to
ALWAYS offer a minimum 10% discount on General Admission tickets
when you buy on this website compared to standard walk up prices,
so you'll save money no matter when you want to visit. And there's
no booking fees either, so there are no nasty surprises when it
comes to purchasing. Click to view General Admission tickets.

How do the combination
passes work?
Our combination passes offer you one entry into each of the
attractions included on your chosen pass. When you buy a
combination pass here on the WILD LIFE Sydney Zoo website, you will
be required to select a date for your visit. This is the date for
your WILD LIFE Sydney Zoo visit ONLY. From the date you select for
your WILD LIFE Sydney Zoo visit, you will then have 30 days to
visit the other attractions included on the combination pass you
have chosen. The reason you must visit WILD LIFE Sydney Zoo FIRST
when you buy any combination pass on this website is because it is
upon arrival at WILD LIFE Sydney Zoo where your tickets to the
other attractions are issued to you. The other attractions are
unable to issue those tickets from their ticketing systems. You can
then use them to gain entry at the other attraction/s on the same
day as your WILD LIFE Sydney Zoo visit if you wish, or on a date
within 30 days from that point. Likewise, if you buy a combination
pass which includes WILD LIFE Sydney Zoo on the website of one of
the other combo pass partner attractions (SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium,
Sydney Tower Eye, Manly SEA LIFE Sanctuary or Madame Tussauds
Sydney), then you will need to visit whichever attraction you
bought the pass from first, on the date specified by you when you
made the booking. You will then have 30 days to visit WILD LIFE
Sydney Zoo and the other attractions. Click to go to the
Combo Passes.
