Sydney Friluftsliv og sportsaktiviteter

we took the 9.15am ferry, it's not too crowded and the safety briefing was precise. the crew helped to spot the whales and we had 20 mins of whale viewing time before we said farewell to the the giant sea mammals. The boat was quite distanced from the whales, without a powerful camera it's looks pretty tiny. see the tiny fish using handphone vs the bigger ones using a camera. Overall, we thank God for the nice weather and good show-off by the whales. experience:great safety:good location: satisfactory, Abit far instructor: knowledgeable, whales do not eat during migration.

Opplevelsen var fantastisk! Cruiset tilbyr en minibar om bord, samt spypose. Vi så 3 hvaler som plasket opp av vannet! Jeg anbefaler på det sterkeste å sjekke tidevann og vær før du bestiller dato og tid. Operatøren er ved Circular Bay Wharf, hvor du kan spørre om å endre dato eller tid.

Det var en drøm å hoppe i fallskjerm i Sydney Wollongong, og endelig fikk jeg gjort det! Det var en utrolig morsom opplevelse, og været var fantastisk. Takk til Andy som hoppet sammen med meg! Takket være deg fikk jeg en trygg og hyggelig opplevelse. Siden det var første gang, sjekket han alt før vi satte oss i bilen, før vi gikk om bord i flyet, og dobbeltsjekket før vi hoppet, noe som gjorde meg trygg. Han forklarte også hvordan jeg kunne få gode videoer, så jeg fikk med meg flotte opptak! Jeg anbefaler på det sterkeste å oppleve dette hvis du kommer til Sydney. Avreise fra Sydney kl. 06:00, ankomst i byen kl. 14:30! Ta dette med i betraktningen når du planlegger turen.

If you can only do ONE thing in Sydney that’s worth every penny and memories that last a lifetime, this is it! We are a family of 4 with two teens and I’ve never seen both my kids smile genuinely in pictures 😁😂. our tour guide Eloisa was energetic and we can tell she loves her job! Highly recommend it especially the night climb! we went up during sunset and came down at night.

So lucky that the whale was so close to the boat and they were quite active during the morning that have seen them several times during the trip. One small tip is that the ferry is aboard close to the aquarium. We almost missed the ferry as it just said the meeting point is Darling harbour and we went to the other side of the harbour. Allow some time as the crew will have a talk on the safety matters before getting on the boat.

Denne gangen deltok jeg på en aktivitet jeg lenge har ønsket å være med på, og heldigvis ble jeg ikke skuffet. Jeg var med på to båtturer. Første gang var med en stor båt (ca. 50 personer), og på avstand (ca. 100 meter) så vi knølhvaler blåse vann og svømme opp til overflaten under vandringen. I løpet av litt over en time så vi omtrent 5-6 par hvaler, og vi møtte til og med et par delfiner som lekte rundt båten. Noen dager senere deltok jeg på en tur med en hurtigbåt (ca. 10 personer), og denne gangen var jeg enda heldigere og fikk se en knølhval slå med halen i vannet på nært hold i to til tre minutter – en uforglemmelig opplevelse!

The original tour was supposed to go to Newcastle, but we were only informed at 6:15 AM on the day of the tour that it was canceled. We were then offered to go to Wollongong for a skydive experience instead. The overall experience was quite good, but the original return time was 11:30 AM. However, we had to wait for everyone to finish their jumps, including those who joined later, so we didn't depart for Sydney until around 2:00 PM, arriving back in Sydney at approximately 4:00 PM. You should set aside a full day for this. You can also walk along the beach nearby, and the weather was nice, so it felt like visiting an extra place.

Food was average but the crew made up for it. The explanation provided by the commentator was great and kudos to the crew that we saw dolphins and many sightings of humpback whales. Thanks! ☺️

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An absolute dream trip to the Snowy Mountains! I have been to the Snowy Mountains before, but this experience was so much better! We departed late at night on July 11, 2026, and the weather turned out to be wild and exciting. I was even checking out the live cam from the Snowy Mountains beforehand to track the snow! There was a huge dumping of fresh snow compared to the previous days, and we even experienced an incredible blizzard! During my first trip here, I wasn’t able to roam around at all, but this time we were able to explore so much more. Our tour guide was so sweet & nice! We were dropped off at Smiggin Holes, where we first headed inside to grab some coffee and breakfast - the food there was seriously good! Afterward, we made great use of the free shuttle to easily get all around the Snowy Mountains. Having the freedom to look around coupled with the fresh powder made this trip unforgettable. I am so glad I gave this destination another chance!
