Best places to visit in Australia

  • Sydney: This is an action-packed city that offers natural beauty too. It has a trendy, cosmopolitan nightlife scene and a coastal lifestyle to go with its famous beaches. The Sydney Opera House is the most well-known tourist attraction here, and you should also treat yourself to a drive across Sydney Harbour Bridge. On the city fringes are nature reserves that are also well worth visiting.
  • Melbourne: The live music capital of Australia, this is also known as the city of four seasons in one day, so be prepared for any weather at any time of year. It has a celebrated arts and culture scene, so make sure to visit the National Gallery of Victoria, where you'll find everything from modern Australian to authentic Aboriginal art.
  • Brisbane: A beautiful city between the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast, it offers plenty of natural attractions. The Brisbane Botanic Gardens are among the finest in the country, and the city's skyline is dominated by Mount Coot-ha. You can visit koala bear sanctuaries and aquatic amusement parks, or alternatively immerse yourself in all the contemporary art galleries that you'll find here.

Summer in Australia

If you're going on holiday Down Under to escape the UK winter, use your SIXT car hire in Australia to visit its iconic beaches in season, like Bondi Beach in Sydney or the picturesque Gold Coast. This is also a good time to drive out in your hire car to the Blue Mountains National Park where you find some of the most breathtaking scenery in the country. Moving back to the coast, you can't leave without a trip out to the Great Barrier Reef, where you can snorkel or dive in this stunning marine paradise.
