An Ideal Weekend Getaway to Sydney, Australia

Weekends are undoubtedly one of the most anticipated days in a week, especially for a 9-5 employee. Overflowing with possibilities, you might be looking for a few glorious days devoid of any responsibility. Sydney, being one of the most luxurious cities in the world and the capital of New South Wales, is one of the most desired tourist destinations in the world. This city has plenty to offer its visitors to make sure you don’t spend the day indoors binge watching your favourite Netflix show. Here are a few ways you can seize your weekend.


Sydney Harbour can be identified as one of the top attractions of this coastal city, its magnificent waterways surrounded by numerous national parks, historical sites and islands, is a sight to behold for any visitor. Cruising down past these attractions in the middle of the day can give you an overview of the city’s splendid skyline and a lunch cruise in Sydney is the ideal way to go about it. The family-friendly catamaran, one of the top cruises in the harbour, offers you a freshly cooked multi-cuisine buffet as you stroll along its three expansive outer decks and take in the views of the icons such as the Opera House, Harbour Bridge and many more. Savour fizzy drinks and other sparkling beverages from the fully licensed bar, available for purchase throughout the cruise duration. A Sydney lunch cruise is the ultimate getaway from the bustling of the city and a great way to dine with a view in the middle of the city.


Another sought-after attraction in the harbour is the Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb, which has seen over hundreds of thousands of people climb to the summit of this soaring structure. There are many packages available to climb this iconic bridge including express climbs which take fewer time to ascend and the regular climbs. Once you're geared up with all the safety equipment, you'll slowly start to ascend with your group. Witness the unparalleled 360° views of the harbour, the city and the splendid waters itself, as you experience  a mixture of both nerves and excitement. The guides will give you an insight into the history of the bridge and what it took to build this masterpiece and will be constantly checking on you to ensure a safe experience.


The Opera House is not only the most iconic architectural landmark in Sydney, it is also the pinnacle of Sydney’s diverse art and cultural scene. Head to this gem in Sydney with your friends and catch a play, a musical, a comedy show, the opera or a ballet. Once you're done with the show, you can cool off at the Opera Bar, right next to the building, a great outdoor bar and restaurant serving good food and even greater views.
