You asked, what can you do in Sydney for half a day? Sydney aquarium, Taronga Zoo, or Tower (including sky walk). I certainly don’t want to be rushed through any of those if they are indeed more than half day activities. Aquarium and Sydney Tower – yes, you can complete in a half day no worries. Though Sydney Tower is also open at night.
