Visiting Sydney So Many Things To See And Do
July 20th, 2010 · 2 Comments · Travel Australia
Recently my family visited Sydney for a long weekend, we flew in from Melbourne airport. Driving to Sydney would have taken all day so we chose to fly, we were only in the air for about 50 minutes, flying is a great time saver.
We stayed with a family that we met at Ayers Rock Resort 10 years ago, so it was a 10 year anniversary of when we met. Every year since we met we have arranged to meet them and holiday somewhere in Australia. We have been to the Kimberley, Central Australia twice, Fraser Island twice, Noosa several times, Murray River houseboat cruise and more. All wonderful trips and adventures.
As they are Sydney locals we went on several tourist drives that certainly gave a new outlook on Sydney and gave us a better understanding of how massive Sydney is.
I had been to Sydney twice previously with my parents many years ago and with our local primary school to see the Paralympics in 2000 and had seen the popular highlights Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Opera House. Which are of course stunning and worth seeing.
There are many Things to do in Sydney, everyone that visits should visit the Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge. There ia also plenty more to see and do like the Rocks, go on a harbour cruise, visit Taronga Zoo and Luna Park.
Sydney has some beautiful very popular beaches to visit like Bondi as it very close to the city we also visited Cronulla beach and several other beaches which had a few brave surfers catching the waves! It was way to cold for swimming!
If you are planning to visit Sydney and looking for more adventure how about an amazing full throttle jet boat ride in the harbour, see the unique harbour views while going flat out sliding and aplashing in all directions.
If you want the best view of Sydney try the Skywalk on top of Sydney Tower only 260 metres above ground level. Of course you will be wearing Skysuits and harnesses for your own safety. What A View!!
Many cruises on the harbour can be enjoyed as well as sea plane flights, aerobatic flights, sky diving, rock climbing in the Blue Mountains, drive a racing car around Eastern Creek race track, Harley rides, hot air ballooning and so much more.
Fathers Day is not far away so start thinking about a present sooner rather than later. The above activities would make excellent Fathers Day Gifts as well as the more sedate adventure activities suitable for all Dads.
