Sydney is considered the jewel in the crown of the South Pacific. An exciting cosmopolitan international city filled with life, history, with lots of great shopping, restaurants, and places to see.

The most populous city in Australia with a population of approximately 4.28 million, Sydney is the state capital of New South Wales. Sydney is also the site of the first European colony in Australia, established in 1788. Sydney is a major international tourist destination notable for its beaches, the Sydney Opera house and Harbour Bridge.

No trip to Sydney would be complete without taking a harbour cruise, climbing the bridge and visiting the Opera House.
