Dear all, do I need to buy an Opal card for a two-day trip to Sydney? Any recommended route planning and public transportation apps for buses and subways? Thank you ?

If you take the subway, you need to have an Opal card. I think it costs 5 dollars for the card. If you want to check the route, just use Google Maps. It's very accurate for time and routes.
You just need a chip-enabled credit card to pay. You can directly swipe it on the train.
If you want to go to the University of Sydney or the Royal Botanic Gardens, you will need an Opal card.
