Thrilling Escapades In Eastern Australia

1. ACTION PACKED: NEW SOUTH WALES

SOAK UP SYDNEY

No matter how popular it gets, the stunning Sydney harbour will still captivate first-time and returning visitors alike. Take to the stunning water at a pace of your choosing. You can take a ferry to soak in the views and use the slow speed to capture the perfect shot, or get the wind in your hair by trying jetboating. You could even test your endurance by kayaking across the water. Lounge on any one of Sydney’s 70 sparkling beaches, or get active as you dive with sharks at Manly SEALIFE. Refuel with a yum cha feast in Chinatown or tuck into a hearty pie at Harry’s Café de Wheels; this city truly has it all.

MIGHTY BLUE MOUNTAINS

Just a 90 minute drive to the west of Sydney, The Three Sisters is an iconic rock formation which happens to be a part of the World Heritage Blue Mountains. Ideal for canyoning and caving, the mountains have deep fissures gouged from the sandstone over eons. Jenolan Caves is a labyrinth of stalactite-lined limestone chasms carved by underground rivers. Scenic World takes you into the Jamison Valley floor, via railway, cable car and skywalk. Follow the boardwalk through the trees and take in the sounds and tranquillity of the Jurassic rainforest.
