40 days in Sydney Itinerary

Lent iconic status as a result of its famous bridge and opera house, Sydney has a down-to-earth charm that enhances its spectacular setting and functional efficiency.

Venture out of the city with trips to Blue Mountains National Park (Grand Canyon track, Lincoln's Rock, &more), Katoomba (Blue Mountains Cultural Centre, Cahill's Lookout, &more) and Convict Trail (in Wisemans Ferry). There's lots more to do: stop by The Rocks, observe the fascinating underwater world at Sea Life Sydney Aquarium, see a show at Sydney Opera House, and take a stroll through Darling Harbour.
