STROLLING around Darling Harbour with her kids in tow, she looks like any other Sydney holidaymaker.

"The family loved their tour with one of the highlights being a glass-bottom boat experience where they were able to feed tropical marine animals in the Great Barrier Reef exhibit," said an aquarium spokeswoman.

"They were a pleasure to host and we look forward to welcoming them back again soon."

The Jolie-Pitt children were said to be particularly taken with dugongs Pig and Wuru, two of only six on display in the world.
