City Breaks for Australia

Sydney is the "best city in the world" according to readers of Condé Nast Traveller magazine and Travel & Leisure Magazine. It was also the site of the Olympic Games in the year 2000.

From its convict origins as the first European settlement in Australia, it grew up to become the country's largest and most exciting city. With its beautiful harbour and beaches, Sydney is very scenic. It is your major gateway to the State of New South Wales and the rest of Australia.

Sydney is also the location of Goway's main office in Australia, which is only a phone call away to be of further service to you.
