Things to do in Sydney, New South Wales: The Best Multi-day Tours

October 8, 2021 Sachiko Swiger

Sydney offers plenty of historical and contemporary Australian flavor. The marvelous Sydney Opera House looks like a great origami sailboat, floating peacefully in a harbor. Wander the narrow cobblestone streets of The Rocks and then take in a street performance on the Circular Quay before heading into the Museum of Contemporary Art. The views from the Sydney Tower Eye observatory are epic – use this chance to get to know the layout of the city from high above.

South Goulburn caravan park wonderful friendly place to stay. Pet friendly and close to everything needed for overnight stay. Owners were very accommodating and helped us with our stay, the pet friendly cabin was very clean and our feline fur baby sure appreciated the journey being made into shorter runs instead of one long journey. We will definitely be staying here again whether we are traveling with or without our fur baby. Thank you so much .. ;)

This was my first time doing a tour with INTRO Travel and they did not disappoint! Everything from start to finish was organised for me. From hotels, to restaurants to transport, I didn’t need to worry about a thing! I loved everything about the trip but my favourite bit was staying at Sarana Bungalows and seeing the amazing beaches and view points in Koh Phangan. The locals are so friendly and it’s lovely to see the bond between the locals and the group leaders. I made memories I’ll never forget and friends for life. The best way to see Thailand, I definitely recommend the the 9 day Thailand tour. Thank you INTRO Travel!

Daniel was an amazing guide! He told us a lot about australian history and aboriginal tales from a unique perspective, you could really feel his love and passion for doing what he does! The kayak tour began after a quick hike up a small hill from which we had an amazing view over the hawkesbury river. The tour itself was really fun and not too exhausting. We never really kayaked before and everything went totally fine, so definitely fine for beginners. Along the way we also had some stops for food and drinks, of which especially daniel's delicious wraps made a lasting impression. I can highly recommend this tour for everyone who wants to experience something a little more adventurous and see places that you normally would never come to see!

There's no better way to see the sights of Sydney Harbour than on a hop-on hop-off harbour cruise. You can jump on and off at any number of stops, including Circular Quay, Taronga Zoo, Watsons Bay, Shark Island and Manly. Simply disembark at any destination, stay as long as you like, then board another boat to reach your next sightseeing destination.

Our party of 6 adults chose the Top Deck Lunch Cruise as a great way to see the Harbour, Food was excellent, service was prompt and friendly. My only comment would be that we had to order drinks through an app which took a little bit of mucking around but once we got the hang of it it was easy. Loved the fact that we could have lunch then move around the boat - downstairs in the lounge area or upstairs on the open deck. Also loved that we could stay on the vessel for 2 circuits of the Harbour. Very economical considering we could use our NSW dining vouchers. Great experience and would highly recommend.
