Let’s say you want to interview ten people and ask them the same question. The question is – Name the five best activities you want to repeat over and over again. Most of them, if not all would name traveling as such an activity. If you decide to probe further and ask about the destination on their bucket list, some of them will name Australia. Australia is on numerous travel bucket lists as it is the land of sunshine, good vibes and adventure.
There are three cities in Australia that will change your life, so let’s go straight into it.
Sydney
Every guide to Australia has to begin with Sydney. Especially if you’re a single man looking to experience Sydney, you’ll thank yourself for booking a plane ticket. There’s no shortage of unforgettable experiences to be had in Sydney, so plan to see the following.
The Sydney Harbour Bridge adventure
If you want an iconic experience and you’re visiting Sydney alone, climb the Sydney Harbour Bridge. This once-in-a-lifetime experience may be something you do once, only in Australia. It’s a guided activity, where you’ll experience the breathtaking panoramic views of the city skyline, the Sydney Opera House, and the sparkling waters of the harbour below.
Take a break at the Bondi Beach
Even those with the biggest lust for adventure will appreciate taking some time off after climbing a bridge. That’s exactly why you should spend some time at Bondi Beach. It’s packed with people enjoying the sun, the wind and the lively atmosphere. You may even try surfing or get a surfing lesson from one of the local surf schools.
Learn about the Sydney Opera House
Lastly, take some time to marvel at this renowned architectural masterpiece. Go on a guided tour and learn about its fascinating history, design, and cultural significance. It will leave a lasting impression on you, so don’t miss out on this.
Melbourne
Melbourne is the second on this list but equally magical as the previous one. From amazing lanes adorned with street art to unforgettable nightlife that takes you to Harem Melbourne and other iconic venues.
Take photos of Melbourne’s street art
The first stop in your Melbourne adventure is Hosier Lane and the city’s street art scene. Dress in something neutral to create a contrast while you pose for great, colourful photos. Take in all the murals, graffiti, and stencil art and get immersed in the vibrant street art.
Try new food at Queen Victoria Market
If you’re a foodie and you love tasting new food on your travels, head to foodies paradise. There’s international and local cuisine, something for even the most delicate taste buds. It’s a place where food, street art, live music and artisans meet to create a festive atmosphere.
Escape it all at the Yarra River
You can take a stroll along the Yarra River or book a cruise. Also, you can go kayaking and observe the city from a unique perspective. Either way, you can truly relax and take a break from this vibrant city at the Yarra River.
Brisbane
Brisbane is known for its amazing parks, koala sanctuary, amazing nightlife and Moreton Island. Once you take in all the beauty of Brisbane Botanic Gardens, plan the following two activities.
Spend a day trip at Moreton Island
Firstly, make a room in your schedule for a day trip at Moreton Island. Cruises usually depart early in the morning, so you’ll have enough time to enjoy it for the day. Moreover, if you visit it between June and November, you may be in time for whale watching.
Visit Koala sanctuary
Secondly, plan to visit the world’s largest sanctuary known as Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary. You’ll get to see koalas and other native Australian animals. Just imagine how cute a sleepy koala is. Also, you can feed kangaroos and wallabies and watch different wildlife shows
As you can see, there’s something unique to do in each one of these three towns. There’s a lot more to each one of these cities and it’s up to you to jump on a plane and explore.
