Know when to go.
- Visa: Most visitors need an ETA or eVisitor visa arranged online before travelling, with a passport valid for the duration of your stay. We can point you to the right one for your nationality
- Currency: The currency is the Australian Dollar. Sydney is largely cashless, with cards and contactless payment accepted almost everywhere; an Opal card makes public transport easy
- Seasons reversed: Sydney is in the southern hemisphere, so summer (December to February) is warm and beachy, while winter (June to August) is mild. Spring and autumn are lovely for sightseeing
- Sun protection: The Australian sun is fierce, so pack high-SPF sunscreen, a hat and sunglasses and reapply often — slip, slop, slap, as the locals say
- Beach safety: Always swim between the red and yellow flags on patrolled beaches, and be aware of rips and surf. Sydney's beaches are beautiful but the ocean can be powerful
- Getting around: Sydney is well served by trains, buses and iconic ferries, all on the Opal card. The harbour ferries are a scenic way to travel and a highlight in themselves
- Best time: Sydney is a year-round destination — summer for beaches, spring and autumn for comfortable sightseeing, and events like New Year's Eve fireworks and Vivid Sydney (May-June) light festival
- Tipping: Tipping is not expected in Australia, though rounding up or leaving a little for great service is appreciated
- Wildlife & nature: Day trips to the Blue Mountains and Port Stephens offer koalas, kangaroos and dolphins; respect wildlife and never feed animals unless guided
- Connectivity & power: A local SIM or eSIM gives good coverage. Power is 230V with the Australian type I plug, so bring an adapter
