G'day ! My name is Kunal (aka koala !) and I'm a 'tourist at heart, on the journey of life'. I have been living in Sydney for over 20 years and have also lived in a few other countries in Asia before I moved here. In all the places I have lived, I lived like a 'tourist', with a passionate curiosity to explore and learn more about the local culture, history, food, architecture and all the other 'inside' knowledge about the city. Since two decades, I have been discovering this amazing and beautiful city of Sydney just like a tourist, so much so that I now know more than many a local and would love to share it with you. I create fun, personalised and memorable tours that go beyond the 'guidebook'. Before I turned to professional tour guiding, I have had an extensive career in the world of advertising, as a creative strategist. Whilst developing stories and campaign ideas for global and local brands, I have cultivated a deep understanding of people and interacted with a diverse multi-cultural profile. I have received over 500 hundred 5 Star reviews during my career as a guide and even made some friends for life. I'd love to take you in and around Sydney, whether it's half a day you have or a full one. Whether you wish to walk, drive or go by boat ! Something else I am hugely passionate about is capturing anything that looks photogenic. I believe beauty is all around us, as long as we are mindful enough to notice it. It's not what you look at, but what you see ! Although I was an addict of my Nikon D90, these days I manage to get some great pictures from my iPhone and it's so easy to carry everywhere you go. I know how to get the best out of your iPhone camera and would be more than happy to share some cool ways of getting some fab photos. I am also very open to developing a bespoke tour for you if you have any particular preferences in mind. I love the outdoors and nature, love all things food and drink, fluent with the history and culture of Australia and have a strong affinity for 'everyday beauty'. I am a fun loving, highly personable guy with a good sense of humour and there will not be a boring moment with me. Check out some of my tour reviews :-) Thanks for taking the time to read my bio, I look forward to hearing from you and the opportunity to share the city I love :-) - Certificate IV in Tour Guiding from TAFE Ultimo (the most awarded Travel and Tourism vocational institute in Sydney) - Drivers Authority issued by NSW Road Transport Authority - MR Driving Licence (can drive a coach) - First Aid Certificate - Bachelor of Science (Math)

A leisurely walk of approx. 3 hours that kicks off in the Rocks, commonly referred to as ’the birthplace of Sydney'. Walk along the spectacular coastline with great views of The Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Sydney Opera House. Discover the Rocks precinct, the birthplace of this colony. Walk through the Royal Botanical Gardens, one of the best curated gardens in Australia and see the impressive castle like Gothic Revival architecture of the Government House and the adjacent Sydney Conservatorium of Music, once the stables of the Governor ! Join me as we walk through some of the best parts of Sydney. You won't regret it.
I kick off at the 4 Seasons Hotel on George St. Then we spend a considerable amount of time discovering and walking through The Rocks precinct, the birth place of Sydney. After that we walk along the harbour foreshore stop at a few places, view the second oldest residential structure in Sydney and walk to the Sydney Opera House. After a conversation about that, we walk through the Botanical Gardens where you get a view of the new Govt House and of course a part of the beautiful gardens. We then exit the Gardens on Macquarie St, cross over and walk back to where we started. It kinda takes about 2:30- 3 hours, depending on the pace at which we walk etc.
