Sample of the best of Australian wine.

Plenty of tours on offer for a range of prices - this is just one we know multiple people have done and loved

Amazing walks through over 900 different canyons.

Home to the world's steepest railway.

Probably the most famous walk in Australia.

2 hours one way walk between some of Sydney's most well know beaches.

Treat yourself to a nice cool beer in the Coogee Pavilion after (and it's happy hour 4 - 6pm Mon - Fri if you needed another excuse)

Less well known but equally stunning walk from Spit Bridge into the heart of Manly

Chance to get that postcard shot of Sydney Harbour as you pull out of the city

Great way to spend the day in Manly: Surfing, snorkeling and just chilling on the sand

Fireworks at 9pm every Saturday night

Unbelievable view of the whole of Sydney harbour

As a cheaper alternative to the bridge climb.

Similar views but not quite as high

Situated across 30 hectares on the edge of the iconic Sydney Harbour, the Royal Botanic Garden Sydney is home to an outstanding collection of more than 27,000 plants from around the world.

GIving amazing views of the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge.

There is also a swimming pool in here if you fancy a dip to cool off (Andrew Boy Charlton Swimming Pool).

Iconic amusement park

Iconic swimming pool in the shadow of the harbour bridge

Shopping outlet - great for a rainy day

Note: can claim back the GST at the airport when leaving on purchases over $300

High end shopping and a great spot for some afternoon tea
