Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, arrived in Sydney yesterday, a day before they officially start a 16-day tour of Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific.
The trip is their only international tour since the Duke and Duchess were married in May, apart from a two-day visit to Ireland.
The pair landed on an overcast morning after a commercial flight from London with a brief stopover in Singapore.
They have 76 engagements scheduled over 16 days in Australia, Fiji, Tonga and New Zealand. In Australia, they will pet a koala in a Sydney zoo, visit the drought-stricken Outback town of Dubbo and meet indigenous leaders on Fraser Island, the world's largest sand island, in northeastern Queensland state.
