We have created a list of great things to do in Sydney. These top Sydney destinations are very popular and we think you haven’t really experienced Sydney until you have visited these places!
ELS Universal English College: Walk over the top of the bridge (Bridge Climb is $198 - $228 depending on the climb and time of year) or take the footpath across the bridge. Either way, this is a must if you are visiting Sydney.
ELS Universal English College: Entry is free. There are so many sections to the Botanic Gardens and it is just beautiful! This is a great spot for a picnic.
ELS Universal English College: Visit this famous beach. We recommend watching the sun rise over the sea – absolutely spectacular. Swim at the end of Summer to enjoy the warmer water :)
ELS Universal English College: Explore the caves! The drive is long but it is well worth the wait. Cave tours are $30 - $40. Adventure and kids tours also available.
ELS Universal English College: If you have the time and the money to splash out on sailing in the harbour you should do it. Prices vary $100 - $150 for around 3 hours.
ELS Universal English College: Boards ships and experience what life is like on the water. We loved going on board the destroyer, submarine and tall ship. You will pay $32 for full access. Cheaper rates for regular visits.
ELS Universal English College: This is the coolest museum ever! There are so many different sections to explore and much of the museum is interactive so you have a great time here. Admission is only $10. Happy times ahead :)
