Sydney travel tips
Visa and entry
Entry rules for Indian passport holders change, including visa-free, visa-on-arrival and e-visa schemes, so confirm the current rules on the official government or embassy website for Australia before booking flights. Most countries require a passport valid for at least six months beyond your return date. We check the current requirements when we prepare your quote; we cannot guarantee visa approval.
Health and safety
Buy travel insurance that covers medical treatment and evacuation; healthcare abroad can be expensive. Carry prescription medicines in their original packaging with a copy of the prescription. For current safety advice, check the travel advisories published by the Government of India and the embassy in Australia.
Currency and tipping
The currency is the Australian dollar (AUD). Not expected; rounding up is appreciated.
Best time to visit
September to November and March to May. Mild seasons; summer is hot.
Getting around
Domestic flights connect the big cities; distances are vast, so focus on two or three regions.
Local etiquette
- Ask before photographing people, and follow photography rules at religious sites and museums.
What to pack
Pack sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat and swimwear, comfortable walking shoes and a universal travel adapter.
Phone and internet
Indian mobile operators sell international roaming packs, or you can buy a local SIM or eSIM on arrival with your passport. Check that your phone is unlocked and supports eSIM before you travel.
Budget
We don't publish fixed prices because the season, hotel category, flights and group size change the cost. Your written quote lists exactly what is included, so you can compare like for like.
