The cities are wonderful – Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Canberra the major ones – all bustling and lively with plenty to see and do and exciting restaurant scenes that serve the very best of Australian cuisine.

Travellers stepping off their cheap flights to Australia will be able to do things here they’re unable to do anywhere else in the world.
