Anonymous userAnonymous userLovely visit to Taronga Zoo. Love that it is a non-profit organization where all proceeds go to animal conservation, rehabilitation and education. Animals are very well looked after. Would highly recommend.

M55***46M55***46The Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge complement each other beautifully. For stunning views, you can also take ferries in various directions to admire the Sydney cityscape, visit the Botanic Gardens next to the Opera House, and enjoy speedboat and inflatable boat services.

M92***44M92***44Blue Mountains National Park was so much fun! It's very close to Sydney, making it easily accessible, and the scenery is spectacular. The Three Sisters sculpture is quite unique. The cable car is very convenient, making the ride very comfortable and not tiring at all. The food at the restaurants was delicious and reasonably priced. The staff were all very friendly and polite.

2026 Global 50 - Cool Water Escapes
_We***87_We***87Darling Harbour in Australia is really beautiful and worth a visit. The tour guide publishes the perfect itinerary every day and reminds us patiently every day. It is really convenient for a family to go out with a personal butler. It is more comfortable to have a small group with fewer people than a large group.

Night view
growlergrowlerVery simple, you can go in directly with the redemption code. The entrance is on the 5th floor of the mall, and you can take the escalator up. After going up, the sightseeing floor is on the 4th floor, and you can't go outdoors. It is recommended to come in after 4 o'clock and leave after watching the night view. Some of the glass above is not very clean, resulting in poor shooting effects. You can experience delayed shooting. Some buildings seriously block the view of the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge.

powerlong88powerlong88It's a great way to get on and off the train repeatedly, from morning to afternoon! It passes by famous attractions like Central Station, Bondi Beach, the Opera House, the Harbour Bridge, and Chinatown. It's convenient to get on and off at Central Station because it's right in the heart of the city!

E02***14E02***14The Harbour Bridge is worth a visit, it's free. Walking on the bridge, you can overlook the Sydney Opera House from afar, and you can also overlook the yachts and cruise ships shuttling across the blue sea under the bridge. It's very pleasant!
