From a local’s point of view, here are some of the best things to do and foods to eat in Sydney, Australia. A lot of these are cheap,???and if there’s no entry price mentioned it’s probably free!

The Classics
- There’s heaps to do around Circular Quay: take a tour of the Sydney Opera House ($43+), walk around The Rocks historic district, go up the Harbour Bridge Pylon lookout ($20), or just sit and people watch.
- Just a short stroll away from Circular Quay, walk around the Royal Botanic Garden. Stop by Mrs. Macquarie’s chair for excellent harbour views and the nearby pond that’s accidentally full of eels.
