Flight Sydney
A fascinating city
Australia, both a country and a continent, is a captivating and enticing destination which crystallizes everything that dreams are made of. From the red landscapes of Uluru desert to the Sydney suburbs, from the Great Barrier Reef to the shores of Tasmania, Australia will have you fall under its unequalled charms. So as you book your flight, get yourself ready for some unforgettable adventures.
The essential
Dive at the heart of the aboriginal culture
In spite of its seeming paradoxes, everything about Australia reads like a success story! Striking, spectacular, unique…all superlative descriptions seem to fit it like a tailor-made glove. Nature rimes with abundance and luxuriance, while it remains perfectly integrated to the urban landscape of coastal cities. Though the history of British colonization remains recent, the unique and enigmatic Aboriginal culture is now recognized and estimated worldwide. Australia has even come to be considered as mankind’s second cradle (after Africa)! It is indeed on Aussie turf that the oldest geological traces are found. Nature seems to have chosen Australia to express the infinite range of its imagination. Here you will encounter wildlife that’s positively strange and fascinating. As you travel through the immensity of Australia, you will make endless discoveries that will stack up like a collection of unforgettable memories.

Sydney, showcase of all Australia
Art in all its forms
Sydney is a glorious gateway to Australia and a grand introduction to Australian cultural heritage. Book your flights to Sydney for a holiday in a major hub of culture. Begin your exploration of Sydney with the Sydney Opera House. With its iconic architecture like stacked segments of an orange, it’s an instantly recognisable landmark. Continue your Australian cultural tour at the Museum of Contemporary Art. This Art Deco building houses around 7,000 contemporary aboriginal works of art. Next on your Sydney holiday travel itinerary is the New South Wales Art Gallery where you can catch world class exhibitions of Australian and international art.
An exceptionally beautiful natural setting
Australia is also a country of wide open spaces: book flights to Sydney and see the outback with your own eyes. Recharge your batteries with a walk in the lush greenery of the Royal Botanic Gardens in the city centre. Dating from the 19th century, this 30 hectare garden is home to exotic plants and amazing animals, such as the ibis, with its long, curved black beak. Next, hit Sydney’s famous beaches. Reflecting Australia’s easy going nature, Bondi Beach is a surf haven. You can learn to ride the waves here and then chill in a beachside bar. In search of a lively atmosphere? Go north to explore the shops and restaurants around Manly Beach.
Australian wildlife in all its glory
By booking your airfare to Australia, you’ll also have the chance to see some of the amazing wildlife that lives there. With its panoramic view over Sydney, Taronga Zoo is home to some 350 different species, including Asian elephants, koalas and tigers from Sumatra. Next, discover the deep sea world of coral and colourful fish at Sea Life Aquarium. You’ll see dugongs, penguins, rays and sharks there. With art, wildlife and amazing beaches, Sydney offers all the treasures of Australia.

At once a challenge, a journey, and a party: this boat race has existed for decades. The yachts set off from the port of Sydney, cheered on by hundreds of spectators. The boats then cross the Bass Strait in the Tasman Sea. There's no time for sailors to admire the beautiful landscapes! After crossing Storm Bay, where the winds are unleashed, they head for Hobart Harbour, the finish line of the race. There, as the competitors celebrate their victories they will and share their memories of the highs and lows of these few days spent on the ocean.<br/>

In the city, on the water and even in the sky: Australia Day celebrations are everywhere! Also known as Anniversary Day, Invasion Day and Foundation Day, the 26th January is Australia's national day. In 1788, the first British ship arrived in Sydney Cove, a small bay on the southern shore of Sydney Harbour. Some Australia Day events have become classics that are not to be missed, like the Ferrython, in which Sydney's fleet of ferries embark on a thrilling race from Circular Quay to Shark Island and then back to finish at the Sydney Harbour Bridge. There is also the gigantic fireworks display at the end of the day. You can expect great food, fun times and plenty of Aussie good humour.

The first Sydney Festival took place in 1977. Since then, it's become a tradition for Australia's largest city to kick start the year with two weeks of arts events. Throughout the city, many shows, sometimes free, follow one another: ballet dances, light installations, concerts and much more. To celebrate each new year, Australian diversity is honoured with a focus on home-grown culture, presenting contemporary creations but also Aboriginal art. Lectures, meetings, concerts, screenings: there's something for everyone. Björk, Cate Blanchett, Manu Chao and Ian McKellen are among the artists who have taken part in the festival in the past.

Sydney is well known for its gorgeous beaches, popular among surfers and swimmers, locals and visitors. Bondi Beach is undoubtedly the best known and the biggest of Sydney's beaches. Even the name is evocative: Bondi or Boondi, for the Aboriginal people, was named for the noise of the waves breaking against the rocks.
A popular Sydney hangout, the beach is lined with cafés, bars and restaurants. As for the promenade which runs alongside the beach, it's the perfect place to see some really spectacular views.
For swimming, sunbathing , running, or skating, Bondi Beach is a must!
