Sydney's Greatest Hits

No Sydney visit is complete without laying eyes on the city's two heavy-hitters, one natural and the other cultural.
Start with culture at Sydney's iconic Opera House, where a tour guide will take you through the history behind the soaring architecture that shaped Sydney's harbor. Afterwards, you'll take a scenic drive to Watson's Bay to take photos of "The Gap," as the entrance to the harbor is commonly known. Finish at Bondi Beach, Australia's world-famous surfing mecca. Locals and tourists alike come to enjoy the half-mile crescent of sandy beach and the shops and restaurants along the main street.
