I can imagine that the view would be great from up here, I have seen photos taken by family members so I didn't venture up, as it is quite expensive at UK£20!!

Alternative: I think you can get a better view from Harbour bridge, or even the monorail! Fair enough, I can't give the best judement but i would not recommend this!

I LOVED the souvenirs in Sydney!! I thought they were absolutely great and i bought a lot of things, ranging from stuffed teddy kangeroo bears to Australia jewellery. The souvenirs are so great that shop keepers can risk charging whatever price they want, as most people won't shop around. I saw the same souvenir in all the shops I went in and the price range for it was unbelievable!! This is particularly true of boomerangs!

At Least Do This: The best way to avoid this is to price compare as soon as you land!! I landed thinking I only wanted a keyring, but seeing all the great stuff they had to offer, I knew I had to economise, so I compared prices, and I'm happy I did!
Alternative: If you do pay too much, move on!! Its ok to make mistakes...just pretend your good is of better quality!

Sometimes tours will not be exactly as described. This is probably because of something beyond the tour operators control.

At Least Do This: So if you are really keen on doing a particular thing on tour, make really sure that it is running that day. On my tour to the Blue mountains, the cable car and the train near the three sisters were not working, so we could not partake in this event.
Alternative: Just enjoy the rest of the tour!! Its not the end of the world, it was meant to be!! I keep thinking 'what if I was on the cable car when it stopped working?' So I'm happy I didn't go on it!! :D
