Top tips for Rome to Sydney
Visit the Opera House
Rome and Sydney are two cities renowned for their architectural splendour. Though the ancient ruins of Rome may be landmarks of old, Sydney’s modern masterpiece is the iconic Opera House building.
With its distinctive ‘wind sail’ design, this world-famous construction is one of the most recognisable structures on the planet. Explore inside with a guided tour, enjoy a delicious meal at the Opera House restaurant and – if you can book tickets in advance – catch a spectacular show.
Experience Darling Harbour
You’ve sailed down the Tiber River running through Rome – now go on an aquatic adventure at Darling Harbour.
Yellow water taxis are a great fun option, while full-day cruise packages are also available, including ones that offer your own very own private sea vessel and crew. You can then return to the harbour for fun packed activities like high-octane amusement parks and 9D action cinemas.
