The city of Sydney is a lively pulsing community that encompasses all that is unique to the Australian culture. A city of contrasts - wide sandy beaches, glittering waterways and lush national parks, are all within minutes of the city centre.

Explore the metropolis, a heady blend of modern skyscrapers and historic monuments featuring high culture, excellent shopping, daring restaurants and a thriving nightlife. Charter a boat and cruise the harbour, or find your bearings with a visit to the observation deck of the Sydney Tower.

Visit ‘The Rocks’, perched on the edge of the harbour, and boasting spectacular views of the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge. Take a walk along the harbour foreshore from Rose Bay to Vaucluse, or explore The Royal Botanic Gardens and the Domain, a pleasant respite from the rush of the city.

Head to Circular Quay and enjoy the entertainment provided by the street performers before you take a pleasurable ferry ride to the relaxed beach resort of Manly.

Visit the modern harbour side development of Darling Harbour, Sydney’s largest dining, shopping and entertainment centre. Experience the underwater world at the Sydney Aquarium, or soak up the atmosphere and live entertainment at the Star City Casino.

Sydney is also the ideal base if you plan to explore the wine region of the Hunter Valley, the natural beauty of the Blue Mountains or the wilderness of the Southern Highlands.
