Sydney and its surrounding
areas offer a vast range of things to do, on one of your free
days you may wish to take in the sights of our wonderful city
and for unrivalled views there is nothing better than those seen
from the top of Centrepoint Tower. Sydney's skyline has changed
considerably over the past quarter of a century but one iconic
building still stands heads and shoulders above the rest, Sydney
Tower. The golden minaret-topped spike remains Sydney's most
prominent landmark and one of the city's must-see icons, home to
the fantastic attraction duo of Sydney Tower and OzTrek.
Sydney Taronga Zoo is a short ferry ride across the Harbour, and one of the most beautiful zoos in the world and home to the largest native and exotic animal collections in NSW. The giraffes enjoy million dollar views of the city from their enclosure. Featherdale Wildlife Park is a short ride from the Holiday Inn and allows visitors the opportunity of getting up close to the kangaroos and you can cuddle a Koala.
Of course there is always shopping and Sydney’s cosmopolitan shops will allow you to shop till you drop. Visit China Town and its gardens, Darling Harbour, stroll around The Rocks area, or the Botanical Gardens, the Opera House offers guided tours and for the more energetic there’s the Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb, - a birds eye view of the harbour from its summit of 134 metres.
At the end of the day you
can relax in one of the many bars and cafes along water front,
watch the sun set and witness the harbour city don its sparking
evening wear as night falls.
and the Great Barrier Reef off the
coast of tropical North Queensland is well worth a visit time
permitting.
Prices of the
optional tours etc will be available shortly.
Join us “Down Under” in 2009, you will take home memories that last a lifetime.
