This summer definitely looks different to summers of the past. Many of us are so used to packing our bags and jetting off to foreign countries to soak up some culture, great food and incredible experiences over the summer holidays. We may not be travelling Asia or Europe this year but there are still so many amazing things we can do right here in Sydney this summer. 

Here are our Top 15 ideas: 

1. Taronga Zoo – Take a ferry up to Taronga Zoo and visit the lions, elephants and penguins. They have some new sights to see.
   
2. Sydney Wildlife Park – If you rather stay closer to the city, Make a trip out to Darling Harbour and see some koalas at the wildlife park. You could even get a multi-attraction pass and visit the Aquarium, Madame Tussauds or the Tower eye as well.
   
3. Aquarium – Visit Nemo and Dory at the Aquarium this summer! You could even get a multi-attraction pass and visit the Wildlife park, Madame Tussauds or the Tower eye as well.
