Explore the must-see icons of Sydney, including the famed opera house, Royal Botanic Garden and Sydney Tower, all of which will reveal the heart and soul of this extraordinary city.

DÍA 1

Disembark the ship in Sydney and meet your guide at the pier before starting out on your day tour of the city. Begin with a drive through the city in a luxury coach, stopping for photos of Sydney Harbor Bridge and the Sydney Opera House. Still, the best and most historical vantage point is from Mrs. Macquarie’s Chair, a stone seat that was hand-carved out of a rock ledge by convicts in 1810 so that the governor’s wife could enjoy the ultimate harbor view.

You will then travel to the Royal Botanic Garden, the oldest botanic garden and scientific institution in Australia, for an Aboriginal Heritage Tour. As you walk the grounds, an Aboriginal guide will describe how the indigenous Cadigal people used plants for various purposes. You many also get the chance to sample bush foods.

encounter with indigenous species. As the zookeeper describes the habitats of the animals, you may

pose with a koala or hold a native owl on your gloved hand.

You will then proceed to the Sydney Opera House for an exclusive tour, during which you will learn

about its extraordinary design and why UNESCO deemed it a World Heritage site. The opera house is so

iconic that it is impossible to think of Sydney without this cultural center coming to mind.

As the hotel isn’t far off, you can choose to walk back on your own and explore other attractions on the

way. The evening will be spent cruising through Sydney Harbour and enjoying a sumptuous dinner. Las

illuminated city will look absolutely radiant as you sail along the coast.

Upon returning to the hotel, the remainder of the evening will be at your leisure.

DÍA 3

Explore the must-see icons of Sydney, including the famed opera house, Royal Botanic Garden and Sydney Tower, all of which will reveal the heart and soul of this extraordinary city.

DÍA 1

Disembark the ship in Sydney and meet your guide at the pier before starting out on your day tour of the city. Begin with a drive through the city in a luxury coach, stopping for photos of Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Sydney Opera House. Still, the best and most historical vantage point is from Mrs. Macquarie’s Chair, a stone seat that convicts hand-carved out of a rock ledge in 1810 so that the governor’s wife could enjoy the ultimate harbor view.

You will then travel to the Royal Botanic Garden, the oldest botanic garden and scientific institution in Australia, for an Aboriginal Heritage Tour. As you walk the grounds, an Aboriginal guide will describe how the indigenous Cadigal people used plants for various purposes. You many also get the chance to sample bush foods.

Continuing on to the observation deck of Sydney Tower, you will enjoy a sky-high 360-degree view of the city and beyond to the Blue Mountains. Once the tallest building in Australia, the tower soars over the city, making it easy to identify key landmarks below.

You will then proceed to the Sydney Opera House for an exclusive tour, during which you will learn about its extraordinary design and why UNESCO deemed it a World Heritage site. The opera house is so iconic that it is impossible to think of Sydney without this cultural center coming to mind.

Upon returning to the hotel, the remainder of the evening will be at your leisure.

DÍA 2

Following breakfast in the Me-Gal restaurant, you will meet your guide in the hotel lobby and transfer to the ferry terminal, where you will take a boat shuttle across Sydney Harbor and into the downtown.

Start with a walk to the Sydney Botanical Gardens, where you will have the opportunity to learn about vast species of Australian plant life that are located in the middle of the city.

Next, visit the Art Gallery of New South Wales for a guided tour of the newest Sydney Modern Project, which showcases both modern art and remarkable works by Aboriginal artists.

For an insight into the history of Sydney and the arrival of the first settlers in 1788, you will walk through the historical and cultural area known as The Rocks. There in a pub, you will enjoy an Australian pizza for lunch with a glass of beer or wine.

In the afternoon, you will return to The Wilderness Retreat and tour The Sanctuary with a park ranger. You can expect an up-close and personal experience with indigenous animals such as koalas, wallabies and echidnas. The ranger will provide you with exclusive access to areas of the park not accessible to the general public, allowing you to meet these remarkable animals and have a real conversation with the experts on the conservation and protection of these unique species.

The evening is yours to enjoy at leisure. Dinner is included at the Me-Gal restaurant.

The evening is also at your leisure with dinner included at the Me-Gal restaurant.
