This classic first time itinerary takes you to Sydney and the city beaches as well as the iconic Red Centre and the Great Barrier Reef. Start your trip with a bang in Sydney, wander through the beautiful Royal Botanic Gardens, why not take an early morning backstage tour of the Opera House or maybe venture further and spend a day sampling wine in the Hunter Valley. spend some time in Circular Quay admiring the iconic harbour and we recommend doing the coastal walk between Coogee and Bondi as the views are stunning.
Uluru is the next destination and a bucket list tick. Perhaps take a guided walk around the base of Uluru, or dine under the canopy of stars. Finally head to Port Douglas in Queensland, spend time enjoying the laid back atmosphere and four mile beach and make sure you complete your trip by taking a snorkelling or diving trip to the Great Barrier Reef.
On arrival into Sydney make your way into the city and check in at the Veriu Central Sydney and settle into your room. You could spend the afternoon making use of the hotel facilities or maybe head down to the Rocks and explore the shops and enjoy dinner in one of the many restaurants.

You have three full days to explore the city so plenty of time to catch a glimpse of Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Opera House, maybe even opt to head in for a backstage tour and learn about the history and see how the performances come to life. Make time to hit the beach, Bondi and Manly are two of Sydney's most popular sandy spots, or if you are feeling active the walk from Bondi beach to Coogee Beach is a must do!
If you fancy getting out of the city you can do the Blue Mountains or Hunter Valley in a day, so why not visit some boutique wineries and sample local produce, you can do this at your own leisure or as part of a group tour.
