Description

••• Discover Sydney's best on foot •••

What's that gleam in every Sydneysider's eye? It's the glitter of their harbour, from Bondi Beach to the Opera House. Views of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the waterfront are iconic, but few visitors know that much of it is easily explored on foot. And why wouldn't you? It's healthy, green and, let's be honest, cheap.

Big hitters, museums, little-known landmarks - this app takes you strolling the beaches, meandering down the laneways of the Rocks and will get you catching ferries like a local. See koalas in the bushland of Taronga Zoo or experience the hurly burly of Sydney Fish Market. And when it gets too much enjoy the views from the perfect bar or east at the city's top restaurants.

This app serves it up straight – we’ll tell you the best dishes to order, tell you what ferry to catch if it's out of the way, plus how to avoid the crowds and if it’s over-hyped you’ll be the first to know. Skip the brochurese and publicity pimping - make your own tour on foot.

Features:
- local reviews of the best the city has to see, eat and drink
- GPS maps to give you directions to the closest meal, drink or sight
- hand-selected picks for the best photos, rainy day alternatives and activities to bring the city to life
- over 200 images including signage and shopfonts so you know what to look for
- updates when a bar closes or a hot new restaurant appears
- smooth interface to phone ahead to reserve a table or click to their website for latest gigs
