Holidays to Sydney

Sydney is one of the world’s best loved cities, and it’s easy to see why - a stunning waterfront setting with iconic landmarks, a plethora of things to see and do, fabulous dining & nightlife, and a relaxed lifestyle that’s legendary. Spend a few days taking in key sights such as the Sydney Opera House, Taronga Zoo and Darling Harbour, hit the beach at Bondi or Manly, or downing schooners of Tooheys as the sun goes down.

The city centre is fairly compact so it’s great to stay within walking distance of Circular Quay. Darling Harbour has undergone a major transformation and offers a host of places to eat and stay within a short distance of the city centre. Stay on the coast for a more relaxed feel.
