Sydney tours

Whether it be to see a show, for a guided tour, or just to have your photo taken on the steps - you can’t possibly visit Sydney without a trip to the Sydney Opera House. One hour guided tours are available, departing every half hour, with the choice of a theater tour or a backstage tour - there’s even tours in Japanese, Korean or Mandarin. Tours cost $26, which isn’t too bad - but there’s an early bird special of only $16 if you take the 9:00am, 9:30am or 10:00am tours.

It might seem a little extravagant, but taking a twilight helicopter flight over Sydney is something that every visitor to Sydney should try and do at least once in their life. Not only is it spectacular, it’s probably one of the best value for money tours you can take while in Sydney. The twilight flight begins over Coogee and Bondi beaches just as the sun goes down, and continues north along the coastline to Manly Beach and the North and South Headlands, then through the heads, and finally over Sydney Harbour. Seeing the Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge come into view as your fly through the heads is absolutely magical and is something many tourist include amongst the highlights of their visit to Sydney.
