Explore the icy-blue hues of Bondi
Start your morning with the beautiful Bondi to Bronte coastal walk. The picturesque trail connects three of Sydney’s most beautiful beaches, Bondi, Tamarama and Bronte, and offers uninterrupted ocean views throughout the entire walk - an absolute bucket list item for Elsa (Jemma Rix).
Visit iconic Icebergs
On your return loop of the Bondi to Bronte coastal walk, stop by The Crabbe Hole Café for a coffee whilst overlooking Bondi Icebergs pool, or if you’re in need of invigorate, take a dip! Post swim, treat yourself to a memorable lunch at Icebergs Dining Room and Bar. This Sydney institution is renowned for its panoramic views of Bondi Beach and incredible menu that celebrates seasonal flavours and the finest locally sourced produce.
Satisfy your sugar cravings with these Frozen-inspired sweet treats

Located a short five-minute walk from Sydney’s Capitol Theatre, this precinct is the perfect spot to grab a bite to eat pre- or post-show so tantalise your taste buds with colourful Coronation Croissants, Snow Queen drinks, and even a delicious white hot chocolate ‘Warm Hugs’. Sydney’s dessert icon KOI Dessert Bar by the Poernomo Brothers, has also launched a series of desserts in collaboration with Frozen that are almost too pretty to eat.
Experience a magical stay
Spend a night in your very own Kingdom of Arendelle and turn your getaway into something magical. Stay at Novotel Darling Square, located a short seven-minute walk from Capitol Theatre and receive a Frozen-themed gift, complimentary Frozen refreshments. Or indulge in a five-star stay at nearby Sofitel Sydney Darling Harbour, where you can take a dip in their rooftop pool overlooking Darling Harbour.

Get up close and personal with the icons and some cool critters
Did you really visit Sydney if you didn’t explore the harbour on a boat? Just like Jemma and Courtney, book a private water taxi from Circular Quay and sail past the Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge at your leisure, offering ample opportunities for those picture-perfect Sydney moments.
Take the water taxi over to Taronga Zoo Sydney and spend the day visiting their 4,000 wonderful and unique animals from all over the globe. Visitors can even arrange close encounters with their favourite wildlife – like Jemma and Courtney did with the penguins. Make a day of it, stop for lunch and spend the night at the onsite luxury eco-retreat – Wildlife Retreat at Taronga, overlooking the magnificent Sydney Harbour.

102-year-old visits Sydney and officially completes her seven-continent lifelong dream
#feelnewsydney
Destination NSW has teamed up with the popular YouTube channel Yes Theory, with its impressive 9.2 million subscribers, and Qantas, to fulfil 102-year-old San Franciso local, Dorothy Smith’s lifelong dream of visiting Sydney, Australia, completing her remarkable journey to every continent in the world.
Yes Theory producers Ammar Kandil and Staffan Taylor first met Dorothy in October 2024 when they moved into The Redwoods Retirement Village for 48 hours. Moved by Dorothy’s heartfelt regret of not yet reaching her final frontier, Australia, Ammar and Staffan felt compelled to help her complete this remarkable journey.
Reflecting on her motivation to travel and time in Sydney, Dorothy shared, "Travel is important to me because it’s a big world, and each country is different and has something different to offer; I want to see them all and I don’t want to miss anything!
“I loved visiting Sydney; it’s a beautiful city. The people are charming, the food is good, the scenery is just wonderful, and even the weather is nice! We saw the little koala bears, of course the Sydney Opera House, we went to the Botanic Gardens, and the Museum of Contemporary Art, good restaurants, and the lovely Bondi Beach where we got our feet a little wet and the water was really cold! And the people – they are all so nice, and so friendly!”

A living link to history, Dorothy is more than twice the age of the Sydney Opera House. In 1922, the year she was born, the NSW Government passed the Sydney Harbour Bridge Act, laying the foundation for the construction of the iconic bridge. Today, the Sydney Harbour Bridge stands as a powerful symbol of Australia’s resilience and connection to the world—a fitting backdrop for Dorothy’s own journey of exploration and discovery.
With Qantas’s support, Dorothy embarked on her adventure to Sydney in comfort, and received an exclusive invite to the cock-pit to meet the pilot, before she was warmly welcomed at Sydney Airport with personalised displays and a crowd of Yes Theory fans eager to celebrate her arrival. Her stay at the luxurious Shangri-La Sydney became a “home away from home,” offering Dorothy the chance to wake up to the breathtaking view of the Sydney Opera House—a landmark she had always dreamed of seeing firsthand.
Ammar Kandil, co-founder of Yes Theory, was driven to support her adventure saying, “Dorothy’s story is a powerful reminder that life is meant to be lived to the fullest, and we’re incredibly happy to help her achieve this lifelong dream to visit Sydney and tick of Australia as her seventh and final continent.
“Our mantra is ‘seek discomfort’ and embrace adventure, and Dorothy’s journey truly embodies the spirit of our channel. Her incredible story is set to inspire millions around the world to pursue their own adventures, no matter the obstacles.”

- A visit to the iconic Bondi Beach, where Dorothy enjoyed splashing her feet in the waves and seeing one of the world’s most famous beaches.
And Dorothy’s secret to a long, healthy life? “You have to exercise, you have to eat lots of fruit and vegetables and stay hydrated. And also, FUN! You have to have fun so you’ll stay healthy, and you can also enjoy 102 years! And if there’s anything else you want to try, go ahead and try it!”
