DAY 3
This is a tour that we feel is totally unique and well beyond what is offered to the majority of Sydney visitors. Sydney harbour is an amazing natural wonder which has shaped the culture and lifestyle of Sydney.
Whether you climb over it, cruise on it, swim in it, walk along its foreshores or dine beside it, your Sydney Harbour experience can be as energetic or as relaxed as you choose. What better way to enjoy Sydney than by getting on the water with Australia Vacation Package.
Ron and Jan, your hosts at Australia vacation have their own boat and as such can guide you to the backwaters, beaches and bays of Sydney Harbour and its tributary the Parramatta River, an area where Sydney-siders live and play. We visit locations that tourists never see and where no cruise boats go.
Imagine morning tea, fine wine and cheese platter along side The Opera House - viewing the Harbour Bridge and city skyline. There is no doubt that Sydney Harbour is one of the finest natural harbours in the world. Although, very much a working harbour, its’ sparkling expanse offers the perfect escape from big city streets. The sprawling waterways, with their idyllic foreshores are an integral part of the cities’ identity. We can then cruise past the fascinating architecture of harbourside suburbs to arrive at Watsons Bay for lunch and a walk to the local landmarks. The stunning cliffs at the “Gap” which is the southern entrance to the harbour and the nearby convict built Macquarie Lightouse
We then return to Darling Harbour which is Sydney’s entertainment and convention centre. There is a huge array of shops, bars restaurants and theatres. Disembark for a stroll through this tourist precinct and stay to watch the city lights come on and enjoy an evening meal. Just phone us at your Australia Vacation apartment for a pickup (only 45 minutes notice required after 7pm). Package Holidays to Australia suggests this day tour or we can customise an individual tour that suits your special interests.
