City breaks are a great family vacation anywhere in the world, even in more exotic locations. As part of our city breaks with babies series family travel bloggers tell us about their favourite city breaks with babies  in Australia and Asia!

Who went to Brisbane with a 6 month old.

Brisbane is the main city we live in and has great attractions for families. The numerous free outdoor playgrounds and watermarks make it really family friendly. Southbank Beach is a great location. We hopped on a city cat (ferry) and went down the river to visit one of the fantastic playgrounds and hopped back on the ferry and had fish and chips in the Southbank parklands soaking up the great Brisbane skyline.

We recommend Southbank, Roma St Parklands, Museum (heaps
of activities for the little ones), sit in at an outdoor cafe in
Southbank, valley and Brisbane CBD and enjoy local bands and people watch for families visiting Brisbane.

I fell in love with Melbourne on my first visit in my early 20s.  Eventually this city became my chosen hometown. I love the variety of  cafes, bars and restaurants dotted throughout the city. Many of the  best bars or cafes are in tiny secret laneways hidden behind unmarked  brown doors. So if you know about it, you already feel like a local.  Melbourne has a vibrant arts culture, is easy to get around and is  very family friendly.

Melbourne’s cafe culture is huge, so everywhere you go you will easily  find a welcoming place to eat and have a quality coffee. I have never  been to a cafe in Melbourne that does not offer a babyccino option for  little ones! It feels fancy! Aside from the babyccino’s, there are  stacks of parklands with playgrounds, and the beaches have minimal  waves, which makes it easy to splash around with a baby.The best places to visit are:

– National Gallery of Victoria – an amazing play area is there for kids
– Melbourne Zoo – check out my tips in this post:  http://whatalisees.com/how-to-explore-melbourne-zoo-with-a-toddler-in-three-hours/
– Dendy Beach to see the iconic Brighton Bathing Boxes and play in the water

Top tips for a city break with a baby in Melbourne
– Choose accommodation just a little bit outside the central city.  Suburbs such as Brighton, South Yarra, Hawthorn, Carlton are very  safe, have great playgrounds, close to transport, cafes and supermarkets
– Take public transport as Melbourne is so easy to get around with a  stroller on trains and/or trams
– If it is raining, take your baby to the Aquarium

Elisha took her 9 month old to Tokyo and here’s what she had to say:

We visited Tokyo with our first son when he was 1.5 and 2.5 years old. On our most recent trip, Fletcher was four and we now had baby Declan, who was nine months old. We love the energy and diversity of Tokyo. Most people think of the city as modern, high-tech and full of crazy trends. It is all of that and so much more. There are still temples dating back to ancient times, historic neighbourhoods and many green parks and beautifully landscaped gardens. We find Tokyo to be a great city to visit as a family and the main reason for this is the fantastic rail systems that make getting around easy. A baby carrier makes it simple, strap baby in and go anywhere! If you take a stroller, make sure it is light and easy to carry. We love to stroll around and explore the different areas.
