Say goodbye to the winter blues with Sydney’s top five luxury experiences.
Sydney is just as alive and vibrant in winter as it is in summer. From private bridge climbs to igloos by the harbour, Sydney pulls out all the stops in winter. Time to swap the bikini for a coat and experience the cooler side of Sydney.

1. Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb
Some of the clearest skies and the most remarkable sunsets in Sydney happen in winter. To really see Sydney shine, book a private Sydney Harbour Bridge climb. With a private climb, you can enjoy a truly personal experience. Stand on top of the world (well, Sydney at least) accompanied by your guests and climb leader. Watch the sunset and witness panoramic views of one of the world’s most beautiful harbours.

3. Sydney Harbour Luxury Cruising
When it comes to cruising the Sydney harbour, look no further than Hiilani with Sydney Harbour Luxe Charters. The elegant, 95ft motor yacht was previously owned by none other than Shirley Temple.

The Italian-made yacht can sleep up to nine people in the four spacious cabins. To get you through the winter months, book an on-board cocktail function for up to 49 people.
