Admire the iconic Sydney Opera House, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most distinctive buildings of the 20th century. Take a guided tour of the building and learn about its history and architecture. End the day with a sunset dinner at the Bennelong Restaurant, overlooking the Opera House.
The National Gallery of Victoria houses an impressive collection of Australian and international art, including works by renowned artists such as Van Gogh, Degas, and Picasso. Take a 2-hour guided tour and learn about the history and significance of the artwork on display. After the tour, enjoy a coffee at the gallery's café.
Visit the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), Australia's largest stadium and one of the world's most significant cricket grounds. Take a guided tour of the stadium and learn about its history and its role in Australian culture. End the day with a visit to the MCG Museum, which houses a collection of cricket memorabilia and interactive exhibits.
If you have more time, consider adding a day trip to the Blue Mountains from Sydney or visiting the Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria in Melbourne.

Make sure to check the opening and closing times of the attractions before making your plans, as some may close earlier on certain days or for special events.
