Australia is one of the best country in the world. We went to Sydney and went to the Opera house. It's beautiful architectural designed and stunning voice projection in the concert hall makes me fall sleep. The aquarium with it's fascinating creatures right in the city. Two hours drive is the Blue mountain with a good walk in Mt. Thoma. I came back there many times. An hour drive is a fascinating Three sisters mountain that makes your whole day full of excitement. We went to Melbourne and enjoyed the Safari there. The Northern Territory was a must to see, Jim jim falls and Katherine is amazingly wonderful. The Anherm land and it's historical and cultural background amazed me most. Western Australia gives you a winery taste and amazing caves. Perth City has lovely beaches elegant houses. Brizzy is my favourate palce to live and in the future I am planning to see Tasmania.

Tahra 's tip about Sydney, Australia 15th Oct 2008

Sydney was amazing. Spent a month there exploring the city, from Darling Harbour with it's shopping and Chinese Gardens and the Aquarium to the Bondi Markets and beach to Coogee Beach and all around the bay. Gordon's Bay was an amazing place to go snorkeling. St. Mary's Cathedral was spectacular with all the architecture and the crypt down below. Found a little museum just down the road from St. Mary's, dedicated to a small piece of local history. The shopping was fantastic. Randwick was an awesome place to stay, with parks, and the racecourse near by, and best of all, it had the most amazing pizza place. Woy-Woy, about a 3 hour drive out of Sydney central had some amazing beaches, and a fantastic 4 story mall. Also the Blue Mountains were spectacular, even from a distance. A month in Sydney was not enough to explore it all.

Peter 's tip about Melbourne, Australia  (with reference to City Breaks) 15th Nov 2011

Don't come to Melbourne.

I lived here more than 50 years. Its has violence, drunken behaviour, drunk drivers, rapes and racism. The city smells because men piss everywhere at night time when at night clubs.

And its not safe to go out at night time.

Read the Melbourne newspapers. You'll get a true indication then.

Oh I could say more....

Peter, I migrated to Australia 11 years ago. I travel a lot so I can tell you it is one of the best cities to live in and visit. It has it's own culture and I love diversity of Australia. Late night crime is there in all metro cities in the world with some exceptions e.g Singapore. It does not make the city and surroundings less attractive. For visitors, get to the federation sequare opposite to flinders street railway station there is information building with everything you need to know being visitor you can also visit tourism Victoria website for more details.

Tom 's tip about Perth, Australia 14th Jun 2008

Perth is a great place to live, I have lived in Melbourne and I grew up in Sydney, its not as big as either of the other two, but it is cleaner, greener, safer and friendlier than either Sydney or Melbourne. Perth itself is a rapidly growing city with plenty to see. You can see the zoo, doesn't cost much to get in, or Whiteman Park, admission is free, but it costs to gain entry into most of the attractions. The climate here is very Mediterraneans, but it can be a bit windy in early spring and autumn, it rarely drops below zero at night in winter, only on still cloudless nights. The summer temperature is usually in the mid thrities (celcius) unless there is a persistent easterly wind blowing, then it can go above forty, but generally speaking it is a very pleasant and comfortable climate, the westerly that blows each afternoon (the Fremantle Doctor) keeps the air clean, clear and comfortable. Enjoy your visit.

Beautiful part of Australia.. was shown around by a good friend that moved there.. was taken to a sweet factory (mmm lovely)... also went to an animal reserve (The Gorge).. you could walk amongst the animals and the wallabies fed from your hand.. my oldest daughter loved it..also went to Safe harbor and went on a pony ride to the Island to see the puffins etc...good shopping mall too.. they had a place that served flavored balls of ice.. my daughter kept wanting more lol... would love to go back again...was very warm when we went - Easter(April) in fact it was just the right sort of warm and we had a great time...we went to a Place called Charlies.. you pay 12 and you can eat as much as you want.. was very good value...

My first trip abroad was to Australia.It was to attend my eldest son's graduation.He graduated from the University of Southern Queensland.It was also a good holiday for our family.We were able to see most of the places . I found the people very friendly. A clean beautiful country where one would love to go back and spend the rest of the years.
