You would have seen a number of new Travel pieces on Eat Drink Play – spanning many different countries and events. This year, we were left wondering where to take a friend when they come to visit us in Sydney – which inspired the ‘Tourist’s local guide to Sydney’ article. Whether you take them to the iconic Opera House, to a cheap bar or along the coastal walk, there are many ways to show off Sydney to an out-of-towner! Read the Tourist’s Local Guide To Sydney
