Sydney Mini Pack Itinerary
Airport Transfer & Hostel Hangs
Day 1
You’ve landed and you’re officially Down Under! Now it’s time to get you to your hostel for your first night of accommodation. You’ll be staying at Sydneys’ best hostel called WakeUp! right in the heart of the city. After a long flight, get settled in and relax.
This day is all yours to relax and unwind before you meet up with your guide the next morning. If you’re not too jet lagged jump on the light rail down to Circular Quay so you can soak in Sydney’s iconic atmosphere.
Meet Your Guide & Explore Sydney
Day 2
Today’s the day we get to meet you! The first thing we want to do is get you organised for the rest of your time in Australia. This morning we will set up your bank account, sim card and Tax File Number.Â
Now the paperwork is out of the way you’ll be ready for your personalised walking tour of the city. You’ve seen Sydney on the TV, talked about coming here for years and now you’re getting up close to those recognisable landmarks while learning about Sydney’s history, people and culture.
You will have a lot of jealous friends and followers after today’s Instagram story.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Yes you do! If you’re coming here just as a tourist to visit Australia, you’ll need a Visitor Visa.
If you’re coming here to work while you’re on holiday, you’ll need either a Working Holiday Visa (417) or a Work and Holiday Visa (462), depending on which country you’re from.

Your guided portions of the Mini Pack can run pretty much every day of the week, so we take this opportunity to keep the numbers low for a more personal experience.
There can be up to 5 people in your walking tour group, or it could be just you and your guide exploring the city on your terms for the day.

With your guide you get a full city walk complete with facts, great food tips and ideas for the rest of your time in the city. You also have your personal one-on-one session with your guide for work and travel advice.

Once you’ve booked we will send over your personalised itinerary, which takes into consideration our varied work week and what the best layout would be for you.
