Sydney is undeniably Australia's most famous and most visited city, and for good reason. It is home to a seemingly endless collection of must-see attractions, is a short drive from the famous Bondi Beach and offers some of the best shopping, dining and entertainment Australia has to offer.
Sydney's Famous Harbour
Many visitors to Sydney go primarily to experience the picturesque Sydney Harbour. Exploring this iconic precinct will uncover the Sydney Opera House, the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Luna Park, the Sydney Aquarium and the Australian National Maritime Museum, just to name a few.
Food lovers will appreciate the diverse array of cuisines on offer throughout Sydney. Soak up the tantalizing tastes and aromas of authentic Thai and Vietnamese eateries, or put on your Sunday best and visit one of the many world-class fine dining restaurants dotted around the city. For a meal with a view, book a table at Quay and take in the sights of the harbour while you dine.
Monorail
We recommend visiting Sydney between September and November, and March and May. This skirts the city’s high and low seasons to still give you beautiful temperatures, without the massive crowds. That being said, Sydney enjoys mild temperatures throughout the winter too, meaning visitors can still travel comfortably during the colder months.
