Some tourist attractions turn out to be a real bummer. Primarily because of long queues, poor management, or lack of money’s worth. Choosing attractions that you will personally enjoy and will be an entertaining experience can be challenging to find, especially in a city like Sydney.
Labeled as one of the top cities in the world, Sydney is home to many free-spirited and wild locals that have turned the city into a hub of art, culture, architecture, and nature but, most importantly, thrilling activities.
For young tourists and those who chase the high, you can go to Sydney to get your adrenaline fixed!
Climbing The Harbour Bridge
To start your trip off right, climbing this iconic bridge will be the highlight. The stairs to the top are pretty narrow and only allow small groups to be able to go at once. However, it is made out of the highest quality of steel with the professional guarantee of the bridge not budging.
While the climb is only one wrong move away from a disaster, the views from the top are worth every ounce of fear. Looking at the sea below or watching the city lights sparkle from far away is an iconic view. Moreover, the cool breeze and sunsets at such a height look more colorful and beautiful than ever.
When climbing the bridge, a professional guide will accompany you and ensure that all safety measures are followed strictly, including every member wearing safety gear. In addition, the guide will share entertaining stories about the bridge, its history, and why it is considered such an iconic bridge.
Once at the top, you can enjoy the views, take scenic pictures, and climb back safely.
A Visit To Bondi Beach
Australia has almost 12,000 beaches; 100 of them are in Sydney alone. However, Bondi Beach has gained much popularity among tourists because of the hit 2006 drama, “Bondi Rescue.”
The beach is peaceful, calm, and quite picturesque, but if you are looking for an activity, it is also an excellent place to surf. You can book a class with “Let’s Go Surfing” and receive a two-hour-long training from experienced surfers.
They will teach you all the basics of surfing so you can face a few small tides on your own but even if you fail, splashing in the water and enjoying the ecstasy of learning a new skill is an unmatchable experience in itself.
Deep Dive In The Ocean At The Fairlight Beach
If visiting an aquarium is not exciting, snorkeling with marine life surrounding you will leave you speechless.
The Fairlight beach offers snorkel equipment and guides that will help you dive into the ocean to interact directly with marine life. You will meet the cockatoo fish, goatfish, leatherjackets, sea urchins, and cute little pomfrets that will burst your heart with love.
The trainers ensure that all safety precautions are taken and that you are educated on adequately using the breathing equipment to ensure you enjoy your visit to the fish with no stress in mind.
Darling Harbour
The harbour is the hub of tourist attractions. It has an activity for every individual to indulge in. The harbour is filled with pubs, bars, and restaurants that offer excellent service, delicious food, and a sea view to add the cherry on top.
After you enjoy good food, local shops, and live entertainment, you can also visit Madame Tussaud’s. The wax figurines are surreal, but it’s educational to know about the influential individuals of the world. If you are more of an art enthusiast, you can also look out for the Darling Harbour Street Art Trail. The mesmerizing, colorful paintings are eye-catching, and you can buy some pieces from local artists.
If that doesn’t interest you, you can also visit the WildLife Zoo or the Sea Life Aquarium, which is home to varying species of marine life. What is better than spending time with cute animals and gushing over their adorable selves?
No doubt that visiting museums, seeing art, or going to zoos will bore many kids. The harbour also has adventurous activities for young kids.
Children can indulge in festival rides such as carousels or Ferris wheels or can also beat the heat in waterparks. There are 9D theaters, simulated flights, and racing cars also available to match the interest of every child.
Visit The Scenic World To See The Tops Of The Blue Mountain
While digitized versions of the scenic beauty of the world are a mesmerizing way of enjoying beauty without the pain- the experience is still unmatched.
You can take a trip to the scenic world where the scenic railway that miners once used takes you through the scenic routes, mountain tops, and valley floors of Sydney. A glass cable car on the railway hangs, allowing individuals to enjoy the beauty from far above.
Looking down might end up stressing you out, but a single trip will tick off viewing the Three Sisters, Orphan Rock, Mount Solitary, and Katoomba Falls off your list.
Buckle tight because up we go!
Chinese Garden Of Friendship
After all the adventure, you can conclude your trip in a slow, relaxing tone. Located in the heart of Sydney, you will be amazed at how peaceful and noiseless the garden is. It is the perfect escape to relax, refresh, enjoy nature’s beauty and flowers’ fragrance, and stroll through stone bridges.
The garden is ideal for enjoying solitude, spending time with loved ones, or maybe sitting under a tree to enjoy your favorite book.
The beautiful garden has streams within that are home to Koi fish. Tourists can sit near the creek to watch, feed, or touch the friendly fish. The true essence or representation of the Garden Of Friendship is portrayed through the Koi Fish- a gift of solidarity.
Enjoy the perfect escape before the hassle of daily life begins again.
Conclusion
The adventurous trip had to end, but Cathay Pacific can locate the most comfortable and layover-free flights to ensure that you can relax during your flight back home and rest after the thrill you have experienced.
