Perfect Weekend Planner | Things To Do in Sydney

Have you been in Sydney longer than you can remember? Then you may probably also be bored of doing the same things over the weekends in the name of ‘fun’. For those of you who are looking forward to something more fun than what you’re used to, here is a perfect weekend planner for you and your family.

A Day at the Sydney Harbour but with a twist

Sydney Harbour, probably the most cliched weekend destination there is in Sydney, is still serendipitous in many ways. For instance, have you ever got on board a luxury Sydney Harbour lunch cruise? Or climbed the Sydney Harbour Bridge yet? A luxury lunch cruise in Sydney offers a wholesome sightseeing experience. For a sophisticated cruise dining experience, get on board a premium glassboat lunch cruise in Sydney and wrap yourself in sheer comfort and luxury. The glassboat offers a stunning 360° view of the harbour and every seat on board feels like a window-seat. Why always go for the cheap ferry experience when you have the luxury cruises, a once-in-a-lifetime experience you shouldn’t miss in Sydney. An alternate option to start your day on a refreshing note is a kayaking experience at the harbour. Kayak past the famous Sydney Harbour attractions at the break of dawn such as the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House with a mug of coffee in your hand for a bright start to a memorable day.

Whale watching in Jervis Bay

Jervis Bay is one of the most popular whale watching spots in Sydney that also has a picturesque setting. Hop on board a whale watching cruise at Jervis Bay for a mesmerising experience. Watch the majestic humpback whales from on board a cruise as you glide past intriguing sea caves and rugged cliffs. Do carry your camera with you to capture all those special moments and sights such as the whales frolicking in the waters.

Food and wine tours in Sydney

Sydney is famous for its many wine regions and of course, its culinary wealth. Head over to the Hunter Valley, prominent wine region in Sydney, for an intriguing wine tasting tour that will make you fall in love with this magnificent city all over again. Hunter Valley is home to a number of wineries, lush green farmlands and vineyards. Visit any of the vineyards here at the Hunter Valley to indulge in amazing gourmet food and wine on offer in a relaxing and cosy ambience. You can also visit distilleries such as the Archie Rose Distillery to get a taste of their on-site gin, whisky and vodka. This distillery is a must-visit as it was first opened Sydney some 160 years back.

Abseiling and rock climbing at Katoomba

In a mood for some adventure? Head to the Blue Mountains and sign up for a thrilling Katoomba rock climbing or abseiling experience. Start off your day with abseiling at a 5-meter tall cliff and later a 40-meter high cliff. Get a perfect adrenaline fix by jumping and swinging over and between the cliffs here and the reward for it all? Incredible views of the Blue Mountains and the Megalong Valley. You can explore other parts of the Blue Mountains after your adventure experience at Katoomba such as the Jenolan Caves, the Grand Canyon forest walk and more. Blue Mountains also has a number of cosy and sophisticated restaurants that serve comfy and luxurious dining experiences as well. If you wish for a short getaway from the din and bustle of the city for this weekend, the Blue Mountains is a great option to consider.
