Maroola is around Goulburn which is a long way from Sydney.

Sydney has the best transport system in OZ, a combination of train ,light rail and ferry's will take you to all parts of the city. HOHO does not cover places like Manly or the Zoo, also Photo Op's on the harbour abound.Sydney is a great DIY city,grab an Opal card and explore. google Sydney Transport .Welcome to OZ

Chilli why not get your mate "BIG GAV" to bring a Freedom class ship to our shores, seeing that white elephant "La Leepa" has disappeared and he should have some spare time,he could also get a new OPT built in the harbour. 😁 -
They will be in force when entering both Australian and NZ ports you will be notified by the ship not to take any food items of the ship. Trail Mix can be obtained from every supermarket,health food store or just about any where that sells food,so why risk a fine. By the way NZ is a lot stricter than OZ.

As you like nightlife suggest Darling Harbour which is loaded with bars and places to eat,also less expensive than Circular Quay. The Light Rail runs through Darling and down to the Quay. Ferries are available from King Street Wharf. The Holiday Inn is well located in this area, however there are plenty of hotels in the area. Hope this helps,

Sydney, AUS harbor cruise recommends
beatleman replied to Cruisercl's topic in Australia & New Zealand
Captain Cook Cruises are an option, however if you have the time Possum52's notions are the best way to enjoy the harbour. Grab an Opal Card and use the ferries like a hop on hop off bus. -
Another article with useless info, perhaps the author couldn't find London or Paris.🙃

Pass at a grand a night i can get a suite at Hayman Island. 🤣 -
You are cruising from Melbourne, it's a no brainer a direct flight to Melbourne by Qantas, Lufthansa or United to name a few;problem solved. You have East to West USA to start your trip don't add any problems to what is a long flight.
-
Fully agree great products at Ricks ,Cooroy and Yandina also have super Pie Shops
-
Anything at any Bar to the value of $15US, new system works well with Bar Staff informing you when your out of ammo😭
-
Darwin has a very good HopOn HopOff Bus service that picks up outside the cruise terminal, about $47AUD good value with the drivers commentary.
-
They are also stocking Tassie National Pies 2 pack $7/50; unfrozen quite a nice range and taste nice too. Tassie pies are normally 80% roadkill 20% pastry lovely lol 🤣
-
Hope Royal takes notice and follows suit, I hate having to carry a phone everywhere on board.🙃

Looking forward to having a Scallop Pie in Hobart in a fortnights time. This thread needs some new recipes and pie shops ifs been dormant since Christmas😭😁

Staying at the same place early March, will take the train from airport to Central then L1 Light Rail to Paddys Market (2 stops ). Easy Peasy as Uncle Les would say.
