Australia Day Fireworks
SATURDAY 23RD JANUARY TO FRIDAY 29TH JANUARY, 2021
We are a nation of endless stories, whether from indigenous culture thousands of years in the
making or histories carried from faraway lands, when we weave it all together,
it makes us a land of diversity and what we are today.
The acclaimed Australia Day fireworks are held in Circular Quay, which is where you will find most
of the day's celebrations. Ahead of the pyrotechnics display, many districts will be overrun

MELBOURNE TO ALBURY
We’re collected from home this morning by our chauffeur service and transferred to
meet our O’Shannessy’s Quality Tours coach and crew for our Sydney Australia Day
Tour. What a great time to be heading to Sydney – summer on The Harbour, fireworks,
food and friends. After completing our home pick up service we head to Wangaratta

including the magnificent views from the War Memorial Pillar on Monument Hill before
settling in to our hotel for the evening.

ALBURY TO SYDNEY
This morning we are on the road again. Stopping in Gundagai for our morning break we
then travel on to Goulburn, proclaimed to be Australia's first inland city through letters
patent by Queen Victoria in 1863. Enjoying lunch here we’ll then get a feel for the city’s
history and of course see the “Big Merino.” Continuing onwards, we’ll arrive at our
Sydney hotel, where we can unpack and make ourselves at home for the next three
nights.
OVERNIGHT: Parkroyal Darling Harbour, SYDNEY 
DAY 3 Monday 25th January, 2021
SYDNEY HARBOUR SIGHTS
Today we uncover the sights of Sydney Harbour. With our guide leading the way we are
enlightened to the intriguing stories of the city as we make our way to Mrs Macquarie’s
Chair. The chair, carved out of the sandstone by convicts for Governor Lachlan
Macquarie’s wife to watch the activity on the Harbour offers great views of the Sydney
Opera House, Harbour Bridge and Fort Denison. So, make sure you have your camera’s
packed! Afterwards there will be time to wander along Darling Harbour to feel the
ambiance that only Sydney can exude with plenty of eating choices for lunch. Rejoining
later, we tour the iconic Sydney Opera House. Journey underneath the sails of one of
the world’s greatest buildings of all time, uncovering the stories, history and magic of
the House. Afterwards we’ll head back to the hotel to relax before dinner.
Lunch at own expense and arrangement
OVERNIGHT: Parkroyal Darling Harbour, SYDNEY
DAY 4 Tuesday 26th January, 2021
AUSTRALIA DAY CELEBRATIONS
We have a leisurely start to the day before meeting up mid-morning to board our special
Captain Cook Cruise – Australia Day is one of the feature events on the Sydney Harbour
calendar and we’ll do it in style today as we enjoy a sumptuous lunch and drinks while
cruising the Harbour. We’ll see the annual Ferrython and the Sydney State Ferries
“dressed up” in spectacular colours as they race for first place under the Sydney Harbour
Bridge, followed by a parade of tall ships, small ships, big boats and beautiful classics on
the Harbour. The rest of the afternoon we have to ourselves to watch all the activity on
the Harbour or relax at the hotel. This evening we will be waterside at Cyrens Bar Grill
for dinner and to watch the spectacular Australia Day Fireworks. What a magical end to
the day and what a privilege to be an Aussie!
OVERNIGHT: Parkroyal Darling Harbour, SYDNEY
DAY 5 Wednesday 27th January, 2021
SYDNEY TO BATEMAN’S BAY
This morning we thank our hosts and head towards Wollongong. Taking a moment to admire
the views at Stanwell Tops lookout we then discover Wollongong's most popular coastal tourist
drive, Sea Cliff Bridge. Enjoy an amazing driving experience, witnessing the stunning views of
the Illawarra Escarpment plunging into the South Pacific Ocean. In Kiama we stop for lunch and
a chance to visit the famous Blowhole – some of us may like to walk off our lunch and others
can watch the water spout. Our next stop isn’t far – the charming village of Berry. Here we’ll
have some time to wander down the main street which has some interesting shops and
galleries. The last leg of today’s journey sees us arriving in Batemans Bay later this afternoon.
OVERNIGHT: Sunseeker Motor Inn, BATEMANS BAY
DAY 6 Thursday 28th January, 2021
BATEMAN’S BAY TO LAKES ENTRANCE
We continue south on the Pacific Highway, in Boydtown for lunch. Benjamin Boyd, the son of a
London Banker established Boydtown at Twofold Bay in the mid 1800’s as his headquarters
from where he ran his whaling and grazing exploits. Boyd had grandiose ideas of developing
Boydtown to a stage not only to rival nearby Eden but Sydney itself. His grand plans for
Boydtown never eventuated and the only buildings erected were the Seahorse Inn – where we
enjoy lunch today, Boyd’s Church and Lookout Tower. Our afternoon travels take us through
Cann River and Orbost then on to Lakes Entrance.
OVERNIGHT: Bellevue on the Lakes, LAKES ENTRANCE
DAY 7 Friday 29th January, 2021

down the Main Neerim Road to the pretty town of Neerim. This whole area is called the
Gourmet Deli Trail. From here we’ll slip along the Jackson Track to Jindivick for lunch before
