The scenery is very good, the arrangement is reasonable and you can see it in half a day. It happened to be the last day of 2024, and we could only take the public boat for the return trip to the ring pier. The staff arranged very well. But overall it is worth a visit.

There were not many people and the tour was orderly. The tour guide was Chinese and very efficient. He was friendly and explained the whole process in detail. It was very interesting. The tour route led by the tour guide was also very reasonable, allowing everyone to understand the history and layout of the Sydney Opera House in great detail.

The Blue Mountains Scenic Area in Australia has really nice scenery, surrounded by mountains and shrouded in clouds and mist. The scenic area is free, but the cable car is charged. There are three cable cars with completely different experiences, especially the one with a nearly 70-degree angle, which is very interesting. The children were very excited to do three round trips. Once you buy a ticket, you can ride it as many times as you want on the same day.
