5 days in Sydney Itinerary

Lent iconic status as a result of its famous bridge and opera house, Sydney has a down-to-earth charm that enhances its spectacular setting and functional efficiency.

Visiting Bondi Beach and Manly Beach will get you outdoors. Give yourself a bit of retail therapy at Sydney Fish Market and Queen Victoria Building. Venture out of the city with trips to Lost Bear Gallery (in Katoomba), Leura Mall (in Leura) and Norman Lindsay Gallery & Museum (in Faulconbridge). The adventure continues: see the interesting displays at Australian National Maritime Museum, hike along Bondi to Coogee Walk, admire the natural beauty at Royal Botanic Garden Sydney, and get engrossed in the history at The Rocks Discovery Museum.
