A visit to the Sydney tower gives you the opportunity to get to the highest point of Sydney – and so high is the place that in cloudy days the view from there gets obscured by the clouds, meaning that by climbing the Sydney tower, you get well into the clouds without having taken an airplane!
The height of the tower aside, though, fact is that it gives you a vantage point from where you can see much of Sydney and her surroundings. And it is also at the Sydney tower that you get the opportunity to do a skywalk- and perhaps get to fancy yourself as an astronaut out to fix some gadget on a shuttle somewhere in the outer space. In these respects, the Sydney tower space walk can be a truly exhilarating experience – and if you get to do it on your Sydney tour, it is an experience you will always live to remember.
Sydney tower has much more to offer besides sightseeing and sky-walking though.
The pass with which you gain entry to the Sydney tower is located also gives you access to the ‘Wildlife World’ – widely considered the Sydney’s newest attraction, for both residents and visitors to the city.
The wildlife world – to which you get automatic entry by paying for a visit to the Sydney tower is the place to watch the widest exhibit of Sydney’s unique and fascinating animals and plants. At the Wildlife world for instance, you will get to see a Koala – a very fascinating animal, uniquely associated with Australia. Here you also get to watch some of the unique reptiles for which Australia is famed for. Yet another unique species of animals to be found at the wildlife world is the yellow footed rock wallabies – and more.
And if you adventurous or daring enough – you can also throw yourself from the high wallaby cliffs – all in your visit to the wildlife world.
The beauty of the animals on display at the wildlife world is that the conditions in which the various animals are kept have been adjusted as much as possible to bring them as close as reasonably possible to the animal’s natural habitats.
And apart from giving you access to the highest point from which you can possibly view Sydney as well as entry into city’s newest attraction the wildlife world, the ticket with which you enter the Sydney tower also gives you access to what is referred to a virtual tour of Australia and through which you get the opportunity to catch up with the parts of Australia you might not have the opportunity to make it to on your tour. This virtual too is created to simulate a real tour as much as possible – complete with three dimensional displays and even real motion seating, which promises, at least the first time you experience it, to be like nothing you have ever experienced before.
With the experience that is a climb to the top of the Sydney tour – and the extras it comes with (including the entry to the wildlife world and the virtual tour of Australia), a visit to the Sydney tower is clearly an experience worth having and definitely offers you good value for your money.
