One of the best museum experiences available. The exhibits are spectacular and often very interactive. The place is a kid magnet but adults have plenty to see and do without being overrun.

Great for kids. Although space is quite compact, many species and much information for kids to learn. If you are traveling with a family, this is a must go place in Sydney. High recommended.

Many of the attractions are interactive or have props for funny photos. The wax figures are pretty lifelike with good detail and you'll be surprised by how different (short/tall/small etc) some famous people are in "real life".

You can get to see and board a battleship and submarine. The James Cameron Challenger Deep Exhibit was both amazing and inspiring. If you go through all the exhibits it could take you at least a half day as the museum is fairly huge. Truly worth the price of admission.

If you like In N Out burger in the USA, then you'll love this place. Recommend getting it with a shake and save room for the "create your own" concretes. Worth the wait if there's a queue but if the weather's nice, get take out and enjoy it in the park opposite!!

This place is just my favourite. It’s right next to opera house and what a stunning view! It’s such an amazing place for all occasions where you can just sit back and relax with a total breathtaking view. You can sit in the open area or enjoy inside, wherever it’s just totally beautiful. Highly recommended to go once and I am sure you will fall in love with the place thereafter.

When it comes to fine dining and degustation, Tetsuya's is the place, it doesn't get better than this. Service is exceptional as the staff explained each meal in great detail. Wine pairings complimented each dish perfectly. There was enough food to satisfy although each dish was no more than a few bites. Special place for special occasions, be sure to leave enough time to enjoy the meal.

Perfect for an afternoon with friends, family or enjoy a picnic on a sunny day. You'll always find a little corner to lay down and have a great time. A must do if you're in Sydney for a few days only, highly recommended.

This Mall is a must visit in Sydney for so many reasons. The shops are amazing with very unique products and services. The decor is something you have to see to believe.
