Australia's Two Most Iconic Cities in One Trip

This seven day itinerary covers Australia's two most visited cities, from Sydney's harbour icons to Melbourne's laneway culture and one of the world's great coastal drives in between.

In Sydney, cruise the harbour past the Opera House and Harbour Bridge, and walk the clifftop coastal path from Bondi to Coogee. Fly to Melbourne for a very different pace of city life among hidden laneways, street art and coffee culture, then take a full day drive along the Great Ocean Road to see the limestone stacks of the Twelve Apostles.

The package includes domestic flights between Sydney and Melbourne, airport transfers, six nights of hotel stay with daily breakfast, a Sydney Harbour cruise and the Great Ocean Road day tour, arranged privately for a comfortable family pace.

Best Time to Visit Sydney & Melbourne

Australia's seasons run opposite to India's, and March to May brings Sydney and Melbourne's autumn, with mild temperatures and fewer crowds ideal for the Great Ocean Road drive and harbour cruises. September to November, the Southern spring, is equally pleasant, while December to February is summer and the busiest, most expensive season, and June to August is cooler and best suited to indoor city exploring.
