What is good to know if travelling to Sydney?- For tourists keen on getting the best view of the Sydney vistas, consider taking a Harbour Bridge Climb tour in order to reach the top arch that offers you 360-degree panoramic views over the landscape. Alternatively, there’s a 40-second ride that can be taken with the super-fast double-decker lifts over at Centrepoint Tower, lifting passengers some 260 meters up in the air, providing them with breathtaking panoramic views.
- For families visiting Sydney, keep in mind that the Taronga Zoo is always a great spot to visit. Home to some of the most amazing Australian animals (and a variety of exotic species as well), the zoo is a perfect day-trip destination and offers some stunning views over the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the Opera House, and the Cove.
- Everybody knows about Australia’s weird and wonderful marine life, so why not head over to see the largest collection of Aussie marine life at the Sydney Aquarium? The Aquarium is renowned for its shark-feeding shows, which are hosted on the Shark Explorer, a thrilling glass-bottomed boat!
