One of the best seats in the house can be yours by taking a cruise of the spectacular Sydney Harbor or a walking tour to the top of the Sydney Harbor Bridge for views of Sydney’s skyline, landmarks and some of the most beautiful real estate in the world.

At the foot of the Sydney Harbor Bridge, you can wander the cobbled streets of The Rocks , site of Sydney’s first settlement, and get a feel for Sydney’s past and present. This historically preserved district with its colonial buildings is also a favorite because of its museums, galleries, cafes, restaurants, shops and outdoor entertainment. Tour the Sydney Opera House and take in some of the finest art and performance venues in Australia.

Because much of life in Sydney is spent outdoors, no vacation to Sydney would be complete without a visit to the famous Bondi Beach with its sun worshippers, people watchers and outdoor, beach-side cafes.

There are many more attractions that capture the essence of this great city and make Sydney a very special place to vacation. Citywide transportation is easy and convenient, so be sure to include Darling Harbor, the Royal Botanic Gardens, Sydney Zoo, Fort Denison, and Sydney Tower, to name just a few of the attractions in any walking and sightseeing tour.
