The Sydney Opera House's classic opera medley, booked through Trip.com, provided our family of four with an unforgettable evening of artistic delights. As a family experiencing opera for the first time, the experience was filled with delightful surprises. The family package was a great value, and our two children were fascinated by the opera house's sail-shaped design. Before the performance, we enjoyed a brief opera tour, where the staff thoughtfully explained key points, allowing the children to fully immerse themselves in the experience. The performance featured classic excerpts from "Turandot" and "Carmen," and the gorgeous costumes, stunning vocals, and Chinese subtitles completely immersed us in the magic of opera. The children loved the cheerful melodies of "The Magic Flute," while the adults were deeply moved by the soulful arias of "La Traviata." The performance ran for approximately 90 minutes, a perfect duration that kept the children engaged. During intermission, we enjoyed the opera house's special ice cream and took family photos against the backdrop of the harbor. This experience completely dispelled our stereotype of opera as something "cold," and Trip.com's seat recommendations were spot-on, with great views and affordable prices. By the time we left, the kids were already asking when we'd come back. It was undoubtedly the most culturally enriching evening of our trip to Sydney!

It's a bit of a shame that the red koala was under maintenance this time and we didn't get a chance to ride the world's straightest koala. Also, because of the strong winds, the yellow koala could only go halfway before turning back, so we didn't get a chance to walk all the way to the Three Sisters Peaks. But even just taking pictures from the koala was beautiful.

Taking the boat out, I was lucky enough to see a whale soon, far away, but the boat was very windy and rocking, it was easy to stand unsteady, it was in the distance to see the activity of the whale in the sea, nothing special, very dizzy, a little want to vomit, experience general

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ SEA LIFE Sydney AquariumWe had a wonderful time at SEA LIFE Sydney! The aquarium was beautifully designed, and we enjoyed seeing the wide variety of marine life up close — especially the sharks, penguins, and the amazing ocean tunnel. The layout made it easy to explore, and everything was well-maintained and informative. It’s a great experience for both adults and kids. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Sydney!⸻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ WILD LIFE Sydney ZooWILD LIFE Sydney was such a fun and memorable experience! We got to see Australia’s iconic animals like koalas, kangaroos, and wombats up close. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable, and the exhibits were clean and well-organized. It’s the perfect place to learn more about Australian wildlife without leaving the city. Definitely worth a visit!

Great views but it’s definitely a bit high price for the experience. The observation deck gives me a bird's-eye view of Sydney.

I highly recommend the Koala Breakfast experience, especially for families. After gathering in the morning, the staff will lead you on a tour of all the animals, patiently introducing them one by one. While the zoo isn't large, it's very clean. The animals seem well-cared for, and since they're all native to Australia, many of them are actually new to us. The Koala Breakfast experience allows you to see and take photos with koalas up close. Besides the staff taking photos for you, you can also use your own phone to take close-up photos of the koalas, or ask the staff to take more photos for you. They're very patient! Overall, it's worth it!

I used big bus tour in different cities like London, Paris and KL. It is a great way to take a quick look of the city, relaxing and convenient. It was a good experience in Sydney, especially the blue route which will take you to the bondi beach. You can hop off and hop on anytime. I traveled alone this time, and the big bus tour is so worthy. For me, one day ticket is enough. I took the entire red route and blue route. The scenery in the blue route is so beautiful!!

Darling Harbour (Darling Harbor, also translated as Lovers Harbour) is located in the northwest of Sydney's central city center and is one of Sydney's most famous landmarks. It is 2 kilometers from Sydney Central Station (Central Station) and is connected to Sydney Chinatown (Sydney Chinatown) in Australia. Darling Harbour is a port terminal, green space and complex of buildings, not only Sydney's most colorful tourist and shopping malls, but also a venue for major conferences and celebrations. Darling Harbour is named after NSW's seventh Governor-General, NSW, NSW. The scenery of Darling Harbour is breathtaking. The sea is shining, and colorful boats travel between it, especially at sunset, the embers of the sunset are shining on the sea, and the golden glow is intertwined with the deep blue sea, creating a heady view. Modern high-rise buildings and historic buildings on both sides of the harbour are a perfect reflection of Sydney's unique charm. The hovering seagulls and fresh sea breeze are the best embellishments.
