Hi, my name is Rohan and I am a Melburnian by birth (I originate from Melbourne) who happens to have lived in Sydney for the past 39 years. I now call Sydney home and therefore a Sydneysider! I have a Degree in Business Studies majoring in Hotel Management and Tourism and have worked in the hospitality and tourism industry my whole working life. For the last 16 years I have been blessed with the constant buzz of enjoyment that comes from guiding and introducing visitors to all the captivating aspects of Sydney's daily life. As an inner-city resident who loves exploring the streets by foot, I have acquired a great understanding of where it's happening in Sydney and what's hot and what's not. Couple that with an extensive knowledge of interesting historical facts and figures about Sydney life and I am your walking-talking-guiding concierge! I have been very fortunate to have travelled extensively in my own country and around the world and intend to keep doing so for as long as I'm capable! As a seasoned traveller, I understand the desire of a visitor to quickly grasp 'the feel' of a new city; to seek out the real sightseeing highlights and find out where the locals are eating, drinking and shopping. What is my idea of the perfect day? It would start with a bike ride to Bondi Beach, a morning ocean swim followed by a strong coffee and then guiding visitors through the pleasures and treasures of Sydney life. To finish the day, a meal in a local eatery accompanied by a glass of Hunter Valley Semillon or Shiraz, followed by an evening walk through a local inner city neighbourhood to see what's new and exciting. With an obligatory stop at a gelato bar! My tour offerings include a walking tour through some of the city's inner city precincts, offering personalised suggestions for further sightseeing and dining options for the duration of your stay in Sydney. If it is the gorgeous natural beauty and breathtaking architecture of Sydney that interests you (think the Opera House, think Sydney's spectacular harbour, think Bondi Beach), then my Scintillating Sydney tour is for you. You can choose from either my half-day, four-hour tour or my full-day tour option. If you would prefer an introduction to some of Sydney's hip inner-city neighbourhoods and their happening food and drink scene, then my five-hour Fabulous food tour could be enticing. This tour includes opportunities to visit small businesses and providores and sample the artisanal food and drink products that have made them hugely popular with locals. Further afield, there are wonderful full day tours to either the naturally captivating Northern beaches, the beautiful Blue Mountains, the Hunter Valley wine country, or the Coastal and Hinterland regions south of Sydney to choose from. For visitors who are captivated by our unique wildlife but short on time, I offer a quick tour to our famous Australian Reptile Park. You will have ample time to admire an array of amazing Aussie animals and reptiles and then be back in Sydney and free to explore on your own again by lunchtime. For avid sports fans, you can even experience our unique Australian football competition! From March to August each year I offer a tour opportunity to enjoy a live Aussie Rules football game and get up close and personal with Aussie footballers, rather than Aussie animals! Thanks for taking the time to read my profile. Now book a tour so I can show you how my Sydney sparkles everyday!

Are you keen to have the opportunity to pat and be photographed with a koala? To learn more about koalas from keepers who spend their days looking after them? To hand-feed kangaroos and wallabies? To see a wombats, echidnas, dingos, Tasmanian devils and even a cranky crocodile? To witness a high-tech facility for the milking of venom from an array of dangerous Australian snakes and spiders? If so, then my 4-hour tour to the famous Australian Reptile Park might be just what you are looking for! An expertly curated wildlife park situated in a lovely bushland setting, the Australian Reptile park showcases some of this country's most iconic species but is not 'overrun' with tour buses. Are you keen to make the most of your time while in Sydney? A 7am to 9am tour start time will allow you to spend up to two hours at the Park itself, just when many of the animals are at their most active. We will then head back to Sydney and have you back at your hotel between 11am and 1pm with the afternoon all yours!
7am to 9am - Pick up from your Sydney hotel or Cruise Ship Terminal. 1 hour drive to Australian Reptile Park on the Central Coast. 8am to 10am - Arrive at the Australian Reptile Park and head to the koala pen to spend time meeting a koala. Then you will have ample time to roam the Park, feed some of the kangaroos and see a variety of our unique Australian animals. Be brave and check out the impressive Venom Centre where they milk the venom from all our dangerous snakes and spiders. 10am to 12noon - Depart Australian Reptile Park and return to your Sydney via the lovely large homes of the leafy North Shore of Sydney. . 11am to 1pm - Arrive back at your Sydney Hotel or Cruise Ship Terminal. *The tour can start at a later time, if requested, however the Australian Reptile Park will be busier after 10am so an early start time from 7am to 9am is strongly recommended to enjoy your time with the Aussie animals and reptiles!
