Transportation

Get around Sydney using public transportation, including trains, buses, ferries and light rail. Purchase an Opal card for discounted fares and convenience when traveling on multiple modes of transport.

 

Cultural Etiquette

Respect local customs and etiquette, such as queuing in line, tipping in restaurants and bars (usually 10-15% of the total bill) and addressing people with a friendly “G’day” or “Hello.”

 

Health and Safety

Sydney is generally safe for tourists, but it’s essential to take precautions against sunburn, heatstroke and dehydration, especially during the hot summer months. Stay hydrated, use sunscreen and be mindful of ocean currents and beach safety flags when swimming.
