A brief introduction to Sydney

Home to golden sand beaches, beautiful architecture, and a lively nightlife, Sydney is a global cultural hub brimming with activities for every type of traveller.

Start your trip with a visit to Circular Quay harbour, where you can marvel at some of Sydney’s most iconic landmarks including the Sydney Opera House, and the huge arched Harbour Bridge. About a 10 minute taxi ride away, you’ll find The Rocks, a historic neighbourhood known for its pubs and concert venues, as well as its high-end waterside restaurants.

Sydney’s world class beaches are all well worth a visit. To the east of the city, you’ll find the famous white-sand crescent of Bondi Beach filled with tourists and surfers. The Bondi to Coogee Coastal Walk is an easy and popular clifftop path that will take you through picturesque bays, rocky inlets and ocean pools, offering the perfect way to spend an afternoon. To the north of the city, Manly Beach offers choppy waves and yellow sand, while even further north you can find quiet slices of paradise at Avalon, Newport, and Palm beaches.
