About this activity

If you are looking for a private tour guided by a Sydney born and bred operator that focusses not only on the city's iconic landmarks but also on its unique aboriginal heritage, colonial beginnings and the multicultural society that it is today, then this tour is for you!!! As a general itinerary, the day begins as we make our way to the historic Rocks district, Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera House foreshores. We then journey to the Botanical Gardens, Mrs Macquarie’s Chair and the ever-evolving suburbs of Woolloomooloo and Kings Cross. Following the harbour, we venture through the city’s eastern bays out to South Head and iconic Bondi Beach for a water view lunch. From Bondi, we take a leisurely stroll along the beautiful coastline. We return to the city via fashionable Oxford Street, Paddington with our final destination at Darling Harbour. This private tour enables guests flexibility in structuring the day to best suit the group. Start and end times can be adjusted accordingly.
