Experience a dazzling long weekend in Sydney and see Aida, one of opera’s great epics, staged on the grandest scale on the harbour. Aida is the ultimate operatic spectacle. Love, war and grandeur collide. An 18-metre, 15-tonne rotating bust of Nefertiti towers over the stage. 130 performers and musicians bring Ancient Egypt to life. Fireworks light up the sky at every performance. Add a scenic harbour cruise with high tea, free time to explore, and a Farewell Dinner to finish. Don’t miss this unforgettable escape to Australia’s stunning harbour city. Event Information: Sung in Verdi’s original Italian, with English surtitles so you can follow every moment of the story.
This morning, fly from Auckland to Sydney. On arrival, travel by coach and visit the vibrant new Sydney Fish Market at Blackwattle Bay, the largest of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere.
