The aquatic playground of Sydney, the harbour, is one of the go-to destinations for residents and locals looking to have a good time. It is one of the most unmissable and fun spots in the entire city. Make the most out of your time by signing up for a Sydney Harbour Cruise Dinner and traverse across the iconic waterways, taking in the night views of the gorgeous city skyline.

Being the capital of New South Wales, Sydney has a number one spot on many Australian intenraries, and for good reasons. There is something here for everyone regardless of age or likings. Luna Park is one such landmark attraction to visit if you're planning a night out with the whole family. A twin of the Luna Park in New York, this historic amusement park sits near the Sydney Harbour Bridge on the waterfront and was built in the mid 1930s. Renowned across the globe for its iconic entryway, the grinning moonface, this park is filled with thrilling rides, carnival games and dining spots. Depending on the day, the park can stay open as late as 9pm, making it an ideal spot to visit if you're after something that doesn’t require any booking.
No trip is ever complete without visiting the major zoos and museums of a town or city and Sydney has it in numbers! Taronga Zoo is one of the most important zoos in the country, housing more than 4000 animals of over 350 different species. Apart from the regular visits you can take advantage of their zoo at night experience as part of their Roar and Snore program. You will be introduced to the zoo and its routines, before enjoying canapes and drinks overlooking the iconic harbour and getting up close with the animals and joining in on their feeding time. You will spend the night inside a safari-style tent in the company of the wild soundscapes of the animals next to you!
If you’re a sports fan like me there’s no better feeling than watching your team go at it live in a nearby stadium. Well at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG), you can do just that! Being the home stadium for most state and national teams, including the Australian Men’s Cricket Team and the Sydney Swans, the arena is packed almost throughout the entire year!
