Auckland to Sydney Travel Guide

Sydney really works for its reputation as the liveliest city in Australia. There’s loads going on, from nonstop nightlife and sports games to out-there restaurants and heaving bars. It’s easy to navigate, too. The best bits line up along the waterfront, including the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge.
But despite the big city vibes, the wilderness is never far away. Wild parks and clifftop paths decorate the local coastline, which dips and dives around bays and peninsulas.

Sydney turns things up to 11. Locals and tourists alike power their way around the city, snapping up waterfront sights like the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge. Or they head to Bondi Beach, surfboards underarm. A snooze is in order at this point – Sydney is usually around 4°C warmer than Auckland, after all. And come evening, firework shows and big-name gigs light up the city.
