Holiday Overview
Sydney has to be considered as one of the most recognised cities in the world. The largest & deepest natural harbour in the world with the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera House firmly set by its edge. You can easily explore further than the streets of this great city out to the vineyards of Hunter Valley, to enjoy its fine wines, then onto the Blue Mountains. These mountains get their name from the blue eucalyptus haze floating in the air as the sun hits the trees – very special. The views in this national park will be one to remember. Return to Sydney feeling fully satisfied that you have seen the very best of this area in just a week. This is a great self drive holiday from Sydney
