Visiting Sydney

[Bessie]

Hiya
We are going to Sydney next month and DH will be busy some days with a work conference so it'll jusy be moi plus 3 kids.
What things are there to do in Sydney with 3 kidlets, apart from indoor play centres blablabla? What are the Sydney must dos and don't bothers?
When DH finishes his conference he has some time with just us, so are there any good things worth doing, maybe a bit further afield?
Thanks!

Whereabouts will you be?

Darling Harbour has Wildlife World, the Sydney Aquarium, an outdoor playground and more cafes and eateries than you can shake a stick at.

There's also Taronga Zoo for a nice day out.

The Botanical Gardens in Circular Quay is a lovely place for a stroll and a picnic.

That's all I've got for now! :D

Hiya Beany
I think we are staying overlooking Manly habour for a few days (conference hotel) then when that finishes we will look for somewhere cheaper!
We haven't booked the second hotel yet. We want cheap and cheerful but not cheap and dodgy lol.
Thanks x

Luna Park is pretty good especially on a nice day. Great View.

Yeah Manly Ferry.

Centrepoint Tower.

Will you still stay in Manly or do you plan on going elsewhere?

[Bessie]

Yay cool PN, I didnt know you were in Sydney!
Thanks for the suggestions guys, any ideas of where else we can stay, not dodgy lol!

Will you still stay in Manly or do you plan on going elsewhere?

We're just in Manly for a few days but then we are booking somewhere else as it will be too expensive - work are paying for the hotel when the conference is on.
We're thinking of camping but it might be too much hassle and cold.
The tower looks cool and there are some discount ticket thingys I'm looking at now.
Thanks x

well u can hit up the city for shopping lunch new wildlife world and our good old Aquarium and Harbour has some pretty fun things for children i enjoyed it and i still do at manly if u stay there , theres the beach and im not sure if they are still there but the Turtles and waterslides but i think its shutdown, also there may be aquarium there to im not 100% tend to stray from that area nowadays, um maybe parramatta they sometimes have fairs and good shopping, but most of our attractions and things worth taking time for are in the city big recommendation on city
hope it helps "michael"

If you want to get out of the city there is Fairfeild City Farm and Featherdale Wildlife Park... both are really good cheap family days out.

[MichaelSenpai]

oh yeh i forgot about Featherdale but the area u wanna send someone from out of sydney there? i think its abit on the unsafe side for people who dont know the area... potential targets for the teenage crime in that area..., btw whats the Fairfield city farm like please explain enquiring minds would like to know ;)
