Central Station by 7am. Finding the location isn't easy if you're new to it, so I recommend doing a simulation beforehand. Our guide, Alfie, was impressive. He lived in China for 10 years and speaks Chinese like a native speaker. It's fascinating to hear an Australian speak Korean, but even more fascinating to see him speak Chinese. ^^ Anyway, we departed from Furama Darling Harbour with several Chinese travelers. There were about 23-24 of us, mostly Chinese, one Japanese group, a woman who looked Australian, and us. The explanations and tour were informative. After visiting the War Memorial, we left for Sydney right away, arriving around 7am (exactly 12 hours). Lunch was good. Beer can be purchased separately by card. Canberra is out of the question, right? It's about 280km from Sydney. Thanks, Alfie. Make sure you get to Central Station by 7am. If it's your first time finding the spot, it's not the easiest, so I'd recommend doing a little practice run beforehand. Our guide Alfie really stood out — he said he lived in China for 10 years and his Chinese is basically native-level. It's already cool seeing an Aussie speak Korean, but hearing him speak Chinese was even more surprising. Anyway, we left from the Furama Darling Harbor after picking up a bunch of Chinese travelers. There were about 23–24 people in to Appreciate Alfie
