About Sydney

One of the world’s great cities and harbours, Sydney always lives up to great expectations. The first glimpse of the Harbour Bridge and Opera House will stay in the memory forever.

Even before the 2000 Olympics, Sydney had much to offer – hosting the games just made the city even better with improved facilities and extra dining and entertainment venues all round.

From the waterside restaurants fringing the historic Rocks district, take an easy walk around Sydney Cove past the Circular Quay ferry terminal to that remarkable Opera House and the beautiful Royal Botanic Gardens.

Travel to the top of the 300-metre-high Centrepoint Tower for a bird’s eye view of the city. Or catch a ferry for a 30-minute harbour trip to Manly for some top beaches. Brash Bondi is the classic Aussie beach experience while Darling Harbour offers an Aboriginal cultural centre, museums, aquarium, amusement park and shops.

Further afield, you can get right away from it all in the Blue Mountains.
