Sydney Whale Watching Cruise
The Sydney Whale Watching Cruise is a unique local experience where travelers have the opportunity to observe whales up close. From May to November each year, tens of thousands of humpback whales migrate north from Antarctic waters, passing near Sydney: late June to early July marks the peak northbound period, while after September and October, mother whales with their calves can often be seen slowly returning south along the coastline. Popular whale watching itineraries usually depart from darling harbour or circular quay. The cruise is equipped with advanced facilities, allowing you to enjoy the sea journey without missing any whale watching opportunities.Sydney · 1 km from downtown
Blue Mountains National Park
The Blue Mountains National Park belongs to the Greater Blue Mountains region. There are large areas of virgin jungle and subtropical rainforest growing in the park, among which the eucalyptus tree is famous. Its volatile oil droplets are refracted by sunlight in the air to present a blue fog, hence the name Blue Mountain. Here, you can hike and explore deep into the tropical rainforest, enjoy the scenery of different seasons, encounter Australia's native animals, and take a high-altitude cable car to overlook iconic landmarks such as the Three Sisters, Katoomba Falls, Mount.Solitude and the Jamison Valley. △ Enjoy the magnificent sunset view △ See the different seasons in the Blue Mountains △ Meet Australia's native animalsSydney · 74.8 km from downtown

Sydney Tower Eye
Built in 1981, the Sydney Tower is a observation point that offers a panoramic view of the city. And it is also one of the three landamarks of Sydney, together with the Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge. It is quite worthwhile to visit this Centrepoint. The Sydney Tower stands 300m above the CBD. The four sections are occupied respectively by two revolving restaurants, a observation deck and a café. The observation deck is equipped with high-powered telescopes, through which visitors can see the scenery as far as 70 kilometers. At the peak of the Sydney Tower, you can also walk outside the tower 260 meters above the ground, exthremely exciting. △ 360° overlooking the beautiful scenery of Sydney city △ Enjoy the beautiful sunset and city night view △ Experience walking on the glass platform on the top of the towerSydney · 359m from downtown
Featherdale Sydney Wildlife Park
Featherdale Sydney Wildlife Park is located in Sydney's western suburbs, on the way from the city to the Blue Mountains, making it a stop included in many Blue Mountains 1-day tours. This privately founded zoo houses over 2,000 native Australian animals, including dozens of endangered species, offering an excellent opportunity to encounter local wildlife in Sydney. Here you can see wombats, echidnas, dingoes, little penguins, cassowaries, kookaburras and more, observe massive saltwater crocodiles across water barriers, and even spot endangered Tasmanian devils. A highlight is entering the open kangaroo and wallaby area to hand-feed them, stroking koalas and taking photos in the koala zone, or visiting the lorikeet flight aviary where colorful parrots fly and perch around visitors. The park also hosts multiple daily keeper talks and feeding sessions, where you can hand-feed little penguins under keeper guidance. Quokkas, typically found in Western Australia, have also made their home here, offering a rare sighting in Sydney.Doonside · 1.4 km from downtown
WILD LIFE Sydney Zoo
WILD LIFE Sydney Zoo is located in Darling Harbour, adjacent to SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium and Madame Tussauds Sydney. It is a rare compact zoo in Sydney's city center, primarily featuring indoor exhibits focused on native Australian wildlife. The layout follows a single path, allowing visitors to explore the entire zoo in about two hours. Here, you can see five iconic Australian animals: kangaroos, koalas, wombats, platypuses, and crocodiles. The zoo is divided into themed zones based on natural habitats: the Kangaroo Walkabout is an open area where you can observe western grey kangaroos up close; Koala Rooftop is the zoo's highlight, offering not only regular viewing but also opportunities to book photo sessions inside the koala enclosure or join a koala breakfast experience during their active morning feeding time. The Devil Den houses the loud, powerful-jawed Tasmanian devils, an endangered marsupial species now mainly found in Tasmania. The Daintree Rainforest zone features southern cassowaries, musky rat-kangaroos, and satin bowerbirds. Patience is needed at the Platypus Pool, as these egg-laying mammals often hide among underwater branches. The Nightfall area simulates nighttime conditions, where nocturnal creatures like sugar gliders and bilbies become active. Other sections include the freshwater crocodile billabong, zones for echidnas and Goodfellow's tree kangaroos, and insect displays with spiders, stick insects, and giant snails, alongside reptiles like snakes and lizards. During your visit, check the keeper talk schedules—many animals, from wombat "Ringo" to cassowary "Princess," have dedicated sessions where caretakers share fun facts about their behaviors. After exploring, Darling Harbour's restaurants and waterfront views are just a short walk away, making it ideal for a half-day urban itinerary. △ Get up close with adorable koalas △ Watch adorable quokkas △ Meet the giant saltwater crocodileSydney · 533m from downtown
Scenic World
The Blue Mountains Scenic World is located near the Three Sisters Mountains. While here there are three different modes of transportation for visitors to enjoy: the Railway, Cableway, and Skyway. From the Skyway's high-altitude cabin, visitors will get an all-encompassing panoramic view; visitors can also take the railway or cableway down to the bottom of the rainforest and go for a hike through the rainforest or into the caves to experience the bitterness of how miners' life deep beneath the ground used to be.Katoomba · 85.1 km from Sydney

The theater isn't very large, so the view from the second floor was excellent, and the actors' performances were very lifelike, with very interesting dialogue. Plus, the theater has a beautiful terrace with floor-to-ceiling windows; I took some lovely photos there in the afternoon!

I booked my tickets at the zoo entrance, and they were confirmed instantly. I just scanned the code to enter, and they were exactly the same as the official tickets, but much cheaper. There are all sorts of animals and shows; you could easily spend a whole day experiencing them all. If you're short on time, just see the main attractions or things you like, such as the classic view of the giraffes by the sea alongside the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. The round-trip boat ride offers various views of the Opera House and the CBD skyline.

Amazing whale-watching experience in Sydney! 🐋I really enjoyed this experience from start to finish. The scenery and the whole environment were absolutely beautiful, and we were lucky enough to see a lot of whales! It was amazing watching them in their natural environment, and the experience was even better than I expected. Definitely a great activity to do while visiting Sydney, and I would happily recommend it to others!

You can see various fish up close, especially sharks. Taking a boat to see penguins is also a great experience. Overall, the interactive elements are good, and the kids had a lot of fun.

We visited the Sydney Tower Eye with my family and had a fantastic time. Booking our tickets through Trip.com was very easy, and there were a lot of different options available to choose from. I highly recommend going on a sunny day so you can get the most out of the views. Looking down at Hyde Park and the Anzac Memorial was a definite highlight. Highly recommended!

A Zoo in the western Sydney district. The trip deal worth to try it. You can’t find elephants or giraffes but the rest assure you will see some other great wildlife.

You can visit the zoo even if it rains. It's very clean and has koalas, kangaroos, various reptiles, and a variety of birds. It's quite close to the W Hotel. You can also explore Daling Island nearby.

I always check other people's reviews before each trip for reference and then add my own. Although it was peak season, the crowds weren't large at all, not even comparable to those in China. Just arrive 10-15 minutes before the cruise departure time; e-ticket verification is very quick. You can see the opera house, the harbor bridge, and the coastal residential areas, etc. It's definitely worth a visit!
