Sydney Tour Selection Trips
- The main sights of Sydney really are central located around the harbor. As a tourist one to one and a half days will be more than sufficient to enjoy Sydney.
- Take advantage of the Circular Queue area - it might seem touristy, but it's from here that you'll get the best photographs!
- If you have time, absolutely try to see a performance at the Opera House. It's famous for reasons other than it's unique architectural style!
