Insider tips so you can plan an amazing visit to Sydney

Paula was super quick to respond and gave me great personal advice based on her experiences. She also checked some additional information for me and helped me greatly to decide where to celebrate new year's eve this year. Thanks a lot to Paula - I highly recommend her as a sydney expert.

My fav 'go to' page when sourcing things to do in Sydney, very helpful advice

A totally invaluable travel site. We got all the info needed for our NYE trip and it gave us the most time-efficient use of our 12 days in Oz. Massive thanks go out to everyone involved in such a fabulous site!!! We can't wait to be back in Oz and this will be our first travel tool when we have raised the cash! 10 out of 5!!!

So glad I found this site!!! TONS of info for planning a visit to Sydney. It provides overviews as well as specific, in-depth planning info for ALL of the top Sydney sites (including also the Blue Mountains and Manly beach). I would’ve been lost without this site.
