to & from

  • San Francisco direct to Sydney on Qantas. The service was lovely on Qantas and the flight attendants were so nice to our girls - they got to sit in the cockpit with the pilots after we landed. Believe or not that 14 hours went by pretty fast. 
  • We Uber'd all over Sydney, its very easy to get an Uber or take a taxi. The ferries in Sydney are also an efficient way to get to all of the beaches and fun things to do.

Where to Stay

In Sydney we stayed at the Four Seasons, which is in a very convenient location near the ferries in Circular Quay. Make sure to book a room with a view of the Opera House! The concierge was incredibly helpful in booking our restaurants, tours and activities.
