Why go to Sydney
A holiday to Sydney is, for many, a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Few haven't heard of Bondi Beach, where surfing and strutting come hand in hand and a mellow, family-friendly oceanside vibe pervades. Though its rip currents are notorious, they can be easily avoided by sticking to safe areas and observing any warning signs. If in doubt, head for the child-friendly sea baths at either end.
While there's more than enough in the city to keep you occupied for the duration of your visit, you might wish to venture into the countryside for a taste of rural Australia in all of its natural beauty.
You can make day trips out to the beautiful UNESCO World Heritage-listed Blue Mountains National Park or the Hunter Valley wine country under your own steam. Alternatively, many trips can be included on cheap Sydney package holiday deals, to make your adventures even easier.

*ATOL (Air Travel Organiser's Licence) is a financial protection scheme for package holidays: It provides support to consumers in the event their holiday provider collapses. Booking with an ATOL holder ensures that you won't be left out of pocket and you won't be left stranded abroad. All package holidays compared using TravelSupermarket are protected by ATOL.
ABTA (Association of British Travel Agents) offers similar cover for packages booked with its members. However, while ATOL predominantly covers flight-based packages, ABTA covers non-flight based holidays (such as rail and cruise) and linked travel arrangements. If you are unsure whether or not your trip is covered by ABTA, check with your provider.
