Keep dreaming of cosmopolitan cities with rich history

The world needs us to stay in right now, so instead of boarding your next plane, join us as we continue dreaming about your next holiday.

This week we visit Sydney and its surrounds, uncovering not only the trendy and modern, but also the history and heritage. Discover exquisite dining and cultural immersion within Sydney's city limits; but then venture out from this cosmopolitan city and discover rare gems that offer comparable pleasures, without the city's hustle and bustle. Join us as we explore Australia's most popular city and beyond.

WHAT TO DO
Art Gallery of New South Wales
Take a leisurely stroll through one of Australia’s leading art museums and learn of the stories and hidden connotations within. The gallerys' collection features Australian, Aboriginal, European and Asian inspired works of art.

Wine Region, Orange
You don't have to be a sommelier to appreciate good wine. Explore the lesser known (but just as sophisticated) wine region of Orange — known for delectable wines and exceptional local produce. Sip your way through the countryside followed by a divine meal and taste local flavours that flourish in this cooler climate region.

The Blue Mountains
This magical region compliments its undisturbed natural environment with eco-friendly tourist attractions. Visit The Three Sisters and learn of the Aboriginal dream-time legend. Walk through colourful gardens and spectacular bushland. Or seek a refined luxurious stay enveloped by nature at one of Travel Associates hand-picked favourites, Spicers Sangoma Retreat.

The Sydney Opera House
You cannot miss the opportunity to watch a performance at the Sydney Opera House. The performances within feature what's new and exciting in Australia theatre. And the building itself is a display of inspiring architecture that Sydney has become known for. In May, the iconic white sails of the Opera House illuminate with lights as part of the annual Vivid Sydney Festival.

WHERE TO STAY
Spicers Potts Point, Sydney
Situated on one of Sydney’s most picturesque avenues, Spicers Potts Point is comprised of three meticulously restored Victorian terrace houses. Surrounded by fashionable shops, cafes and restaurants, this modern boutique hotel has a private club feel that peacefully envelops you once inside and away from the hustle and bustle of the busy city.

Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley
Set on 2800 hectares of carbon-neutral conservation and wildlife reserve in the Greater Blue Mountains region, the resort combines absolute luxury with a quintessentially Australian bush experience. Each villa features their own swimming pool, double-sided fireplace and private veranda with stunning valley views.

Byron at Byron, a Crystalbrook Collection Resort
Nestled within subtropical rainforest, this resort is a celebration of nature, responsible luxury and the local environment. Unwind poolside with signature cocktails and pool service; and don't forget to treat yourself to a treatment at their multi award winning day spa.

WHERE TO EAT
Jonah’s Restaurant

Overlooking the pristine waters of Whale Beach, Jonah's is an award-winning Hatted restaurant where the contemporary Australian cuisine on the menu is possibly the only thing that can divert your attention away from stunning views. Tantalise your tastebuds with the array of options on the menu — from fresh oysters to sublime rib-eye.

The Press Cafe
Venture to The Highlands and taste the best coffee in the area. The baristas are dedicated to offering perfection in a cup - which is just what every coffee-drinker desires. Pair a revitalising tea from their herbal tea range or coffee with an item from their menu where the produce is 100% sourced from local small batch producers.

Bennelong Restaurant
Chef Peter Gilmore curates an inspiring menu that he believes envisages the essence of Australian cuisine. Anticipate a dining experience filled with sophisticated tastes and cooking techniques that truly highlight the flavours, diversity and quality of Australian produce.
