National Zoo and Aquarium
What the experts agree on
Canberra's premier wildlife venue showcases Australia's biggest big cat collection and endangered species across seven bushland hectares. Behind-the-scenes feeding experiences with tigers, lions, and sharks are the main draw for visitors.
“It also offers various behind-the-scenes experiences where you can help to feed the sharks, lions, tigers and bears, and interact with rhinos and cheetahs.”
