Sydney for families

Sydney is family-friendly — 8/10. Darling Harbour is the anchor: aquarium, wildlife zoo, and a waterfront playground within 200 metres of each other, all flat-stroller terrain with clean changing facilities. The ferry network doubles as a harbour cruise kids love. Main caveat: older train stations often lack lifts, and Australian summer UV burns pale skin in under 15 minutes.
