A Guide To Sydney For Adventure Travelers

November 28, 2013 By itravelnet.com

Sydney is a magnificent city at the best of times. The amazing Sydney Harbor, the Opera House, the ocean, and the waterways – it’s a city in which to linger for longer. And the adventures! Sydney sings a seductive siren song for those whose adrenaline levels are high – here’s more!

Jet Boat Ride
At Sydney’s Circular Quay, you can enjoy a fun-filled, exciting 30-minute jet boat ride on weekends. It’s the best way to experience the world’s most beautiful harbor. Experience the deliciously cool sea spray on your face as your boat hurtles through massive and awesome sideways slides, fish tails and power stops.

Defensive Driving Course
Head out to Western Sydney to learn some amazing on-road defensive driving skills. You’ll never be caught short on the freeways again, too scared to try a potentially risky maneuver! This training will finely hone your reaction speed and judgment on the road. And no, it’s not just a boring course – it’s an exciting way to explore your own abilities to face danger and come out singing!

Helicopter Scenic Shared Flight
If you’ve always been a land adventurer, do yourself a favor. Sign up for a 30 minute helicopter ride over the Sydney Harbor. The flight is offered by Adrenalin at Kingsford Smith Airport. Enjoy amazing views of the beaches and cliffs of Maroubra and Coogee and the world-famous Bondi beach. Do bring along a camera with telescopic lens. You will want to take pictures!

V8 Race Car Drive and Ride
Eastern Creek, Sydney has another treat in store for you. Drive a V8 supercar – Australia’s most powerful 450hp V8 race cars along with an instructor. Your instructor will likely be a professional race car driver – pick his or her brains, go ahead! Your V8 awaits you – with Bilstein suspension, racing gearbox handles, racing slicks, supercar 6-pot brakes and more!

Quad Biking
Go quad biking for 1.5 hours in Glenworth Valley at Peats Ridge in Sydney with provider Adrenalin. Explore challenging water crossings, bush trails, sand dunes and rough terrains. Then challenge yourself on the turns and long straights of a purpose-built quad biking circuit. You’ll be taught how to handle your All-terrain Vehicle (ATV) quad bike. If you’ve never been on a motorcycle, don’t worry. These ATVs have automatic gearboxes.

Extended Jet Pack Experience
When you’re in Sydney, don’t fail to check out the amazing jet pack experience on offer at the Sydney International Regatta Centre in Penrith. Jet packing – Australia’s dazzling, most exciting new thrill. It sounds fierce, but we assure you, it’s perfectly safe. A jet pack is strapped on to your back while you’re harnessed to a speedboat by rope. As the boat moves, your jet pack unit will blast hundreds of liters of water, creating an anti-gravity thrust into the air. This is the closest you’ll ever come to being James Bond!

Learn To Fly!
For one full hour, you can enjoy what it feels like to pilot a Citabria or Piper Sport Camden, Sydney. If you already have a pilot’s license, the flight time will be logged on it. You’ll be accompanied by a fully-qualified pilot, of course. Enjoy some amazing views over the historic MacArthur region and over Sydney’s incredible skyline.
