Australia
If you are in a wheelchair visiting Sydney, getting into town is a breeze by using the subway from the airport to the centre of town.
Once downtown, buy a day or weekly pass. The rails are wheelchair friendly as are the Sydney Ferries. Using the ferries is a great way to explore the harbour and the city by getting off a various points. Some docks, like Neutral Bay, lead to steep hills up, so you may need to ask for a push, but if you smile, the Aussies will always help!
My recommendation is a visit to Manly.

We completed the London to Sydney overland trip last year by bus that was already running before OZBus came to the sene. I was frustrated to read in all the papers that they were the first to offer this service, since we had already completed it!
It took nine months and we paid slightly less than OZBus! The OZbus website copied word for word the other company's website, I got in contact with OZBus but they never responded!
Three months is way too quick to complete this trip. To go through China has to be pre-arranged, for them to cancel that at the last minute is highly unprofessional! Be warned, try the other companies that are out there, as there are plenty of them.
It is a top little city and if any tourist ever asks me where is a good place in Australia, I answer like every other Melburnian.
"Sydney! Mate you'd love it."
Hee hee hee.
If you can see the coat hanger, mate you're standing in it.
