This trip was designed for busy tourists who intend to have a short but unforgettable holiday in Sydney. Arrive on Friday morning for three days, or on Saturday morning for two, and fly home on Sunday evening: you will see the absolute best of Australia — Sydney's landmarks straight from the airport, the Blue Mountains, the Hunter Valley wineries or the South Coast. We pick you up at Sydney Airport when you land and bring you back to the airport at the end of the program, so you never need a taxi or a transfer.
