Things to do in Sydney

Taking the guided tour of the Sydney Opera House was an unforgettable experience that truly brought this architectural masterpiece to life. While its striking sails are breathtaking from the outside, stepping inside reveals an even deeper level of beauty, history, and innovation. Our guide was knowledgeable, passionate, and full of fascinating stories — from the challenges of its construction to insights into performances that have graced its stages. We explored several of the main performance halls, and walked through areas not usually open to the public. The tour provided a real appreciation for both the artistry and engineering behind the Opera House. Whether you're an architecture enthusiast, a performing arts lover, or just curious about one of the world’s most iconic buildings, this tour is well worth your time.

I went on the Featherdale + Blue Mountains tour with guide Kelvin Sung! Since it was a summer starlight tour, the schedule ended late, but after it was over, instead of saying "Ah, I'm tired," the first thing I said was "Wow, that was a great trip." From the moment we set off, I noticed that the guide's voice was really nice, lol. I thought he was a radio DJ... it was easy to concentrate on the explanations because they were so easy on the ears. We started the day at Featherdale Wildlife Park, and it was amazing to see Australian animals in real life. We took pictures with the panoramic view at Lincoln's Rock, and had plenty of time for a break in Leura Village. It was amazing that the schedule went smoothly even though the temperature exceeded 40 degrees Celsius that day. He timed the breaks perfectly, so there was no physical strain. We had dinner in Katoomba Village, and I recharged my k-blood at the Korean restaurant he recommended after a long time. The most impressive thing was definitely the Blue Mountains sunset and the stargazing. Especially when watching the sunset and the stars, the guide took us to a secret spot he had discovered himself, and the scenery was so quiet and peaceful that the emotion was doubled. In the car, he didn't just explain the tourist attractions, but also gave us encouraging words and positive expressions, which made me feel good throughout the tour. Everyone in the tour group said, "He's the best guide I've ever met," and I completely agree. Even in the hot weather, he took care of us meticulously and created a great atmosphere, making it a tour that will remain in my memory for a long time. I really want to recommend it to people around me, and if I come again, I will definitely choose this tour again!!

didnt imagine in my whole life that the blue mountains would be this majestic and beautiful, you should try it too!

The majestic scenery of the Blue Mountains offers a visual and physical escape when you ascend to take in the views. The activity starts with a photo op at Lincoln's Rock, where you can sit on the edge of the cliff – the driver/guide will help take pictures, but be mindful of your own safety as there's an endless drop below. I have a fear of heights and felt dizzy, so I took the picture standing up. Next, we went to Echo Point to admire the Three Sisters rock formation up close and appreciate their unwavering, resilient spirit. Then came the highlight of the tour – experiencing three different cable cars at Blue Mountains National Park. For the red cable car, which has the steepest incline, it's best to hold onto your backpack and not leave it on the empty seat next to you, because the descent gets incredibly steep, and your bag will likely fall down to several seats in front of you. After the descent, there's a forest trail with many lifelike dinosaur displays. The whole itinerary is quite relaxing, and at lunchtime, you'll go to town for a free meal, where you can choose your favorite restaurant.

I spent a day on this tour during my Sydney trip and it was truly satisfying. From the morning pickup to the itinerary, everything was systematically managed, so I could enjoy it comfortably. At Featherdale Wildlife Park, I was thrilled to see koalas and kangaroos up close. The view of the Blue Mountains was much grander than the pictures I had seen, and the cable car and railway at Scenic World were thrilling and fun. The guide explained everything in detail and took good care of the photo spots in between, so I had a fulfilling day. If you visit Sydney, I highly recommend it!

The cruise was nice and entertaining. we were able to see different views of the opera house, harbour bridge, island and sydney baywalks and residences. The guide shared different insights. It also comes with free refreshments. 🙂

Despite the relatively high price, this is a novel and well worth it experience. The staff go the extra mile to make it fun, engaging and memorable. The facility is clean and there is a cafe and gift shop for pre/post climb activity. A considerable amount of time was spent on the safety prep, but even then it was done in an interesting and fun way. We were given standard overalls to wear over our clothes, so avoid wearing loose clothing (i.e. dress, skirts, big sweaters). Phones and accessories are not allowed (i guess to avoid dropping them up there), if you wear glasses they will give you a special strap for it. Lockers are also provided and there are water stations along the route in case you get thirsty. Overall a great experience and must do in Sydney!

It was a hassle free booking - we booked our tickets just one hour before our visit and got the confirmation immediately! So easy to use (just had to scan the code at the entrance) and we’re in! Great experience

Highly recommended for families with kids! My daughter especially loved the SEA LIFE Aquarium experience. She’s a big fan of sea animals, and it was such a joy seeing her enjoy and learn at the same time. The pass is a great way to explore multiple attractions and get the best value.
