Overseas Passenger Terminal, Circular Quay



Cruise ships are getting larger and larger. They are regular visitors to Sydney, often only staying a day - long enough for people to have a wander around the circular Quay area, maybe walk across the Harbour Bridge and to the Opera House, and say they have "done Sydney".

  1. Well we'll be visiting Sydney on a cruise this year but one day won't be enough for us. After the cruise we're having a few days to see a bit more of Sydney especially that great bridge! Don't think I'll do the trek across the top though. Too old for that.

    1. The Bridge Climb is really great if you do do it. You have a bit of training first; you are clipped in. Quite honestly, I didn't even notice it. You walk up steps which are quite shallow, and there are high barriers. I suppose the trickiest part if that you do have to descend a couple of ladders.

      If the climb doesn't entice you, of course you can always walk across the footpath for free! And go up one of the pylons for small charge.

      Taking more than one day is a great idea - there is no way you could see even a small fraction of Sydney in a day!

  2. One would need more than a day in Sydney.

  4. That ship is huge. It looks like it could fill a city block.
