Mother's Day High Tea at the Zoo

Overview

If you want to really rock mum's world this Mother's Day — and treat yourself to some very cute photo ops in the process — there's one family brunch you need to pop on your radar. On Saturday, May 8, and Sunday, May 9, Wild Life Sydney Zoo is hosting an indulgent high tea right in the heart of the animal action. Yes, you'll be eating up on its Koala Rooftop.

As a guest, you'll get to tuck into a feast of sweet and savoury bites — think: chicken waldorf finger sandwiches and house-baked scones — along with one hour of bottomless mimosas. And, you'll enjoy views of the zoo's cuddly koalas munching on their own brunch of eucalyptus leaves in the adjacent enclosure. Obviously, that means you'll have plenty of opportunities to take koala selfies.

Tickets to the unique feast are $95, which includes the opportunity for a self-guided zoo tour before brunch (so you can scope out some of the other adorable fauna). You've got three sessions to choose from each day, starting at 11am, 12.30pm and 2pm. And we know what you're thinking — no one said it was just for mums, right?
