Sydney is probably the city that best represents us on the international tourist scene… it is the first port of call for most visitors here, and no visit to our large island would be complete without checking out the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge!

A city of bright lights, rich in culture and heritage and with some of the most beautiful ‘urban’ shoreline in the world, the capital of New South Wales has everything to offer the discerning traveller.

With a population of over 4 million, Sydney has a cosmopolitan and multi cultural vibe to it that is represented in the diversity of cuisine and shopping experiences you can have there. A favourite place to ‘hang out’ is the Rocks, the oldest suburb in the city and now a fashionable outdoor shopping precinct.

The beaches form a large part of the Sydney experience, so be sure to check out famous spots like Bondi and Manly Beach. The locals are very proud of their beaches, so make a few friends and find out the quieter spots to go to. Read this article for more about what to see and do in Sydney.

Darling Harbour, Circular Quay and the Taronga Zoo are all spots you should not miss on your Sydney experience. To really treat yourself head to the Sydney Tower for a meal and a drink in the 360 Bar and Dining Room. With its unique rotating floor it offers the finest panoramic view you are likely to ever see!

And if you fancy a bit of country air, then hop into your car rental and head off to the Blue Mountains, the Hunter Valley or any of the other nearlying attractions!
