The metropol of Sydney is a world-famous tourist destination that boasts of not one, not two but plenty of attractions for locals and visitors alike. From stunning beaches to the famous landmarks including Sydney Opera House, the city offers a wide range of tourist sites that will take your breath away. However, for most of you travelling within a busy schedule, covering all these sites can’t be easy. If your holiday in Sydney spans less than a week, we have planned a perfect itinerary that will help you cover a good range of sites within just two days of time.

Day 1

On the first day, head over to Sydney’s iconic Sydney Harbour and explore the big-name places such as Circular Quay, the Opera House, Botanic Gardens, the Harbour Bridge and The Rocks. Start off your day by having your breakfast at any of the three best-known restaurants in the area: Ground Control Cafe, La Renaissance Patisserie and Cafe or Opera Kitchen. After you’ve eaten, make your way to the Botanic Gardens to marvel at the garden beds and exquisite sculptures. An interesting way to go sightseeing around the Harbour in very little time ...
... is the ferry or perhaps a Sydney Harbour Lunch cruise. We recommend the latter as it’s known to be one of the most cost and time efficient options that combines sightseeing and dining at an affordable expense. Get on board a catamaran lunch cruise in Sydney to enjoy three hours of luxury cruising and a freshly prepared seated and served banquet meal with prime views of the popular Sydney Harbour Bridge and Sydney Opera House. A Sydney Harbour Lunch cruise is built to exceptional nautical standards and are equipped with state-of-the-art amenities such as a modernised galley, expansive viewing decks and GPS-based commentary. They also have a fully licensed bar on board that serves some of the finest Australian beers and wines. Once you’ve experienced the joy of cruising, head up onto the Sydney Harbour Bridge for a thrilling adventure called the ‘Bridge Climb experience’. You’re sure to work up a hunger to gobble up a big meal after this! For a great end to an eventful day, have dinner at any of these eateries: the Gateway Circular Quay, Squires Landing, Tayim Middle Eastern, Cafe Sydney or Quay.

Day 2

Sydney is known to have around 100 beaches along the coast of NSW that stretches for about 2000kms. If you’re planning to leave Sydney without visiting some of the best known beaches here, that’d be an injustice done to the city’s postcard-perfect beaches. On the second day of your sojourn, explore the waters and beaches of Sydney, beginning in Barangaroo and finishing in Sydney’s east in Bondi or Coogee based on your stamina and likings. For a quick breakfast, grab a coffee and pastry from Bourke Street Bakery or if you prefer a full breakfast, head over to the Wild Sage, Devon Cafe or the Butcher’s block. Once you’ve had your morning fill, take a ferry from Barangaroo to Watson’s Bay that gives you many photo opportunities along the way. Once at Watson’s Bay, you can head on to explore places such as th eWharf beach, Camp Cove Kiosk and beach. The beach trails out to the south Heritage that takes you to the hornby Lighthouse and some of the best views in the city. Once you’ve explored Watson’s Bay, get on board the 380 bus to North Bondi Beach and discover the famous Bondi to Coogee path. Don’t forget to visit the popular Icebergs swimming pool on the run. Your itinerary ends with a dinner from any of these famous culinary destinations in the city: Surrey Hills, Chinatown or Coogee Pavilion.
