If you had friends/family visiting from overseas for the first (and likely only) time, what are some quintessential Aussie things you’d want to have them see/do/eat/experience? [Serious]
I’ve been here for about a decade and my family is finally coming to visit soon from overseas on a holiday. I never really experienced Australia as a tourist. I came here and jumped right into domestic life with my partner. Australia is just home to me so when I think of grand holiday here I think of just like 12 hours uninterrupted sleep in my bed lol. I’m trying to think of some quintessential stuff I wouldn’t want them to miss, but for some reason my mind’s drawing a bunch of blanks.
We don’t know where we’ll end up yet, so not looking at specific attraction recommendations but more… Aussie things that you can only really experience here. I know they’re real keen on trying chips with chicken salt. I’ll likely go for one of those zoo wildlife encounters for koalas/kangaroos (the only thing I ever did as a “tourist” and enjoyed the novelty and photos). But what other sort of stuff is there like that?
I want them to have a good time and really feel like they experienced *Australia* and things you can only really do/see/eat here
