About the City


Sydney, the “Emerald City,” sits majestically around a beautiful, green, urban harbor. Voted Best City by Conde Naste, Sydney is vibrant and bursting with character. Discover Sydney’s unique blend of dining, shopping, and outdoor recreation options.

TRAVEL:                 Most visitors to Sydney arrive at Sydney Airport. Interstate and regional trains as well as bus
                             lines provide service to and from Sydney. Driving in Sydney can be a challenge – the city’s
                             underground train loop is the fastest way of getting around..

ACCOMODATIONS:    The city offers a broad range of accommodations to suit your travel needs. From world-class
                             luxury hotels to affordable boutique hotels, Sydney is a great place to stay and explore..

DINING:                  With an abundance of award-winning Australian wines and fresh oysters, fine dining can be found
                             at five-star restaurants or neighborhood pubs, where you can buy a “shout” for your new
                             Aussie mates.

SPORTS:                 Australia has more than 120 national sporting organizations and thousands of state, regional, and
                             local clubs. It is estimated that 6.5 million people, about a third of the population, are registered
                             participants in sporting events such as sailing, bushwalking, and football.

CULTURE:                Sydney’s rich culture is symbolized by the Landmark Opera House – but includes a wide variety
                             of indoor and outdoor activities. You should not miss the coastline views, Harbour Bridge, The
                             Rocks, Featherdale Wildlife Park, or Bondi Beach.
