The original landowners, the Aborigines lived there for
10s of thousands of years and their culture and art can
be found throughout Sydney and surrounds. Sydney is a
sprawling city with suburbs many kilometres out from the
city centre.
A great way to tour the
Sydney harbour and Sydneys suburbs is jump on a ferry
that will even take you to outlying Manly. Sydney is
home to the world renown icon - Sydney Opera House that
attracts millions of visitors annually. The Harbour
Bridge is famous in its own right overlooking the annual
Sydney to Hobart race on Boxing Day, and houses a
spectacular fireworks display every New Years Eve. World
class dining, shopping, art exhibits, theatre,
historical architecture and over 70 beaches to enjoy is
just some of what attracts so many visitors every year
to Sydney.
Within 2 - 3 hours of Sydney you will discover the Blue
Mountains with its rugged and stunning landscape and the
Hunter Valley a premiere wine region. Further from
Sydney are the Snowy Mountains home to many skiing
activities and also world heritage listed Lord Howe
Island.
Explore the Murray River Australia's longest river.
Spend some time in Byron Bay, a beach community that is
a bit eclectic but hosts some great festivals and art
exhibits. Jervis Bay beaches on the south coast of New
South Wales are very safe and have the most incredibly
turquoise blue water and pristine sand beaches.
Accommodation is a vast array of hotels, resorts,
self-contained apartments, holiday homes, bed &
breakfast and backpackers accommodation. Transport and
services are world class. Climate varies depending upon
time of year with warm sometimes hot summers and
cool/cold winters. However, New South Wales is a year
around holiday destination depending upon what activity
or exploring the traveller is looking for.
