Travel Tips for Sydney, Australia

Here are some great travel tips for Sydney, Australia fromwww.TukTukTips.com 1. *If you plan to go to the Opera House, it is best to get the tickets in advance because you run the risk of them selling out when you get there because of the high number of tourists that visit. 2. If travelling by bus, buy the 10 pass bus ticket instead of individual rides. You will save money and the hassle of making sure you have coins each time you want to take a bus. 3. Make sure your taxi has a meter; otherwise the driver will try to take advantage of you. 4. To take the ferry is cheaper than a taxi. Go towww.TukTukTips.comfor more travel tips for Australia and other destinations. Bon Voyage! Leon If you're planning to use a lot of public transit during a few days in Sydney, your best bet is a "Green Travel Card" (or "pass") - costs about $45 and covers 7 days unlimited use (within a reasonable radius of the city centre) of trains, buses and almost all ferries. A few ferry rides, and the card pays for itself. |

Travel Tips for Sydney, Australia
Leon!
Since when do any taxi's in Sydney NOT have a meter?. If what you get into doesnt have a meter then its NOT A TAXI. Hire cars & chaufferred vehicles ARE NOT TAXIS and thus will work mainly on hourly rates etc. But again I say ALL SYDNEY TAXIS HAVE METERS So if you post this again, please delete that section re taxi and no meters.
