Sydney

Sydney, NEW SOUTH WALES

Flights, hotels and day trips in Sydney - Australia’s oldest and biggest city and in the territory of New South Wales!

Sydney offers urban beach lifestyle, pulsing nightlife and fantastic shopping. Catch some waves at Bondi Beach, climb to the top of Sydney Harbor Bridge or enjoy a magical performance at the Sydney Opera house. This city offers something incredible for everyone.


OUTSIDE SYDNEY

New South Wales offers amazing experiences outside Sydney, too!

The vineyards of the Hunter Valley offer a great choice of food and accomodation - so you won't have far to stagger after an evening of wonderful wine tasting!

The Blue Mountains to the west offer spectacular scenery, some mighty walks and, if you're lucky, a smattering of snow in August!

In winter, visit the Snowy Mountains for night skiing, downhill or cross-country skiing, snowboarding or tobogganing. During the summer, marvel at mountain flowers, grazing wallabies and grand scenery.

The vastness of New South Wales and the variety of things on offer will make for an amazing vacation!
