Sydney Long Weekend Adventure
Overview
Get ready for an unforgettable adventure. The Student Tour’s Sydney Tour 2025 is here! Sure, we’re proudly Team New Zealand (and we all know Aotearoa takes the cake), but even we have to admit... Sydney has some seriously awesome experiences waiting for you.
From snapping selfies in front of the world-famous Opera House, to soaking up the sun at Bondi Beach, to meeting cuddly koalas up close. This tour packs the best of Sydney into four epic days. Whether you're in it for the sights, the shopping, or just the vibes, this trip has something for everyone.

Itinerary
Arrive in sunny Sydney mid-morning and head straight to our accommodation to drop bags and freshen up. Then we’ll stretch our legs with a guided city walk through the harbour precinct — take in the skyline, snap photos of the Opera House from different angles and get your first taste of Sydney’s buzz. Lunch at Circular Quay follows, before we hop aboard a short harbour cruise to see Sydney from the water: dramatic harbour scenery, waterfront mansions and the chance to spot seabirds and other wildlife. Our destination is Taronga Zoo, where you’ll meet Australia’s most famous animals — kangaroos, wombats and, yes, koalas (photo op guaranteed). Explore the exhibits, learn about conservation efforts, and enjoy close-up encounters that bring Aussie wildlife to life. Return to the city for dinner in the lively Haymarket precinct, where everyone can choose from a huge range of flavours.
Rise and shine — it’s beach day. Starting at Coogee, we tackle the famous Bondi to Coogee coastal walk: dramatic cliffs, rock pools and lookout points with chances to spot whales in season. Arriving at Bondi Beach for lunch, beach time and surf culture. After lunch we take a surf lesson with qualified instructors, try the tidal rock pools, or explore the cafes and shops. Capture the action with epic photos for your socials. Return to the city for a group dinner and a relaxed evening — perfect for recharging after a day of sun and surf.
Start the day with a guided tour inside the Sydney Opera House — discover its architecture, history and the stories behind world-class performances. Next, we’ll board a scenic harbour ferry to Manly Beach. Students can chill on the sand, play beach games or explore The Corso for shopping and snacks. We’ll cruise back into Sydney at sunset — camera ready for golden hour harbour views — then enjoy dinner at Darling Harbour, a buzzing waterfront precinct with great dining and evening entertainment.
Enjoy a relaxed final morning with a stroll through the harbour precinct and free time in the city. Visit The Rocks markets for souvenirs and handmade keepsakes, then take a stroll across the Sydney Harbour Bridge for 360-degree skyline panoramas. After a final group lunch, we’ll transfer to the airport and say farewell to Sydney. You’ll return home with new friends, a camera full of photos and stories you’ll be telling for years.
