With its shimmering harbour, iconic Opera House, golden beaches, and vibrant neighborhoods, Sydney is an Australian city in a category all its own. On this 11-day holiday, you leave this cosmopolitan gem and sail to Hobart, Tasmania, where rugged coastlines meet charming streets. In Adelaide, wine country meets culture in the "City of Churches," where you can tour world-class vineyards in the Barossa Valley or stroll through the lively Adelaide Central Market. Finally, immerse yourself in dynamic Melbourne, where laneways reveal hidden cafes, galleries, and unique boutiques. Ride the iconic trams or visit the Royal Botanic Gardens.
