Prepare in One week in Sydney
Travelling in Sydney is very easy, however, a good map will not go astray, especially when walking around the CBD area. As Sydney can get very hot and humid during late spring, summer, and early Autumn (from October-March), sufficient sun protection is advisable during these times, including SPF30+ sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses. This is a good idea even during winter as you can still get sunburnt at those times, depending on the weather. It is also advisable that you carry a bottle of water around with you. Tap water in Sydney is very safe to drink and has no bad taste; alternatively, large bottles of water (1L or more) can be bought from any supermarket, usually for less than $2, and will be a lot cheaper than bottled water sold in restaurants or food outlets.
A suggestion, to save time and money, is to buy a yellow My-Multi (■)weekly ticket. This ticket is valid for seven days on all public transport within a given zone. Details can be found at the . For the following itinerary, it is recommended that a MyMulti3 be purchased. Although moderately expensive at $57 a ticket (for adults, concession is half price), this should cover all public transport (except monorail and private ferries) around the city within the seven days and will save you money and time from buying single tickets every time. You can buy a MyMulti2 weekly ticket that is $48, but you will not be able to travel to the Blue Mountains except by purchasing separate tickets, which are $15.60 return for an peak adult train fare and will cost you more than the difference between a MuMulti2 and MyMulti3. A MyMulti 1 ticket ($41) will restrict you to ferries and buses outside of the inner city and will not cover train travel to any of this itinerary that takes place outside of the CBD and inner suburbs. MyMulti tickets are available at any CityRail railway station, bus ticket office (though not buses themselves), or Manly or Circular Quay ferry wharf.
At Sydney Airport you can buy MyMulti tickets from the NewsLink newsagencies in T1 (International) Arrivals, and T2 (Domestic) Arrivals, but they will not include travel to or from the Airport railway stations. If you purchase them from the Airport railway stations but they will include a "GatePass" which will add at least $11.80 to the price of the ticket (per trip). You may want to purchase separate train tickets to the city, or for an alternative means of travel from the Airport and avoiding these fees, see the Sydney guide under the "Get In" section.
