Can’t believe Sydney ranks #2! I am a great OZ lover and I find Sydney to be the best of all the places you can every visit. Ihave been to Mebourne, Perth, Port Douglas and many more place in Australia but Sydney simply stands out as the best place to visit any time of the year. I also enjoyed my tour by ExperienceOz.com.au. I had a fun time and it was in my budget too so there are only and only good memories of Sydney in my mind
Great information once again on dstv specials cape town. Thanks=)
