SYDNEY & NEW SOUTH WALES
The forefront of any daydream of New South Wales is undoubtably the sparkling capital of Sydney— with its vibrant city life and postcard-worthy harbor— but this region is rich with possibility beyond this. There are seemingly endless golden beaches, bushland known to captivate one’ s wanderlust, a sophisticated dining scene and scores of lesser-known attractions that combine to create a destination deserving of top billing on your bucket list.
• Lord Howe Island may just be Australia’ s idea of paradise on Earth: This UNESCO World Heritage-listed island is only a two-hour flight from Sydney and promises endless opportunities for outdoor adventure and relaxation. There’ s a limit of 400 visitors at a time, so you’ ll often feel as if you have the entire island to yourself as you explore this tropical paradise.
• A helicopter tour of the Hunter Valley Wine Country is sure to be an unforgettable experience. This scenic flight sees you soaring over the iconic Broken Back Range and scores of lush vineyards before landing at award-winning wineries in Australia’ s oldest wine region. Extend your journey with an overnight stay at a vineyard resort, where you can pair delicious local cuisine with world famous vintages, while spotting kangaroos in the vines.

• A private yacht charter on Sydney Harbour makes for a charming way to experience the city. Some charters include a private chef and sommelier, ensuring the scene is set for maximum romance as you cruise by the Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge.
