20 EXCITING THINGS TO DO IN SYDNEY WITH KIDS

Caz and I both grew up an hour north of Sydney and visited the city countless times as kids, and now with our own children, we’ve discovered there are even more things to do in Sydney with kids.

It’s a city that keeps on giving, and you’ll never run out of things to do, even though we keep going back to our favorite spots.

If this is your first time visiting Sydney and you’re not sure what to do with your kids, here are my top suggested activities for families that we love to do with our family!

Explore Circular Quay

If you want to step inside and experience the interior of the Sydney Opera House, consider taking a 1-hour tour.

Do The Bondi to Bronte Coastal Walk
