It's a pleasure to connect with you through ToursByLocals. As a certified NSW National Parks EcoPass guide, I specialise in showcasing Sydney's natural beauty. From the Northern Beaches to the Blue Mountains, I offer tailored tours that immerse you in the landscapes and wildlife of our stunning region, whilst escaping the crowds from the bus tours. As a Sydney local I know the secret spots and lookouts that us locals like to keep secret, but I love to share them with our visitors. Beyond guiding, I work as a volunteer wildlife rescuer for WIRES, Australia's largest wildlife rescue organization. This allows me to share fascinating insights about our native animals and marine life during our tours. When I'm not on tour, I bring over a decade of experience in the travel and tourism industry, including a tenure at Tourism Australia. I also work as a sustainable tourism trainer, helping businesses and individuals adopt environmentally responsible practices. For your comfort and safety, I provide two vehicles: a luxury Toyota Landcruiser Prado and a VW Caravelle for larger groups, accommodating 1 to 8 guests on private tours. Looking forward to sharing the wonders of Sydney with you!

Overview of your Sydney tour

Start your day with fresh sea air at Bondi or Manly, your choice of two iconic seaside towns. Enjoy coffee where the locals go, wander along the beach, dip your toes in the surf, or simply take in the crystal-clear ocean views. Next, capture unforgettable photos at Mrs Macquarie’s Chair, with sweeping vistas over Sydney Harbour and the Royal Botanic Gardens. Then step back in time at The Rocks, where cobbled streets tell stories of Sydney’s colourful past, from its darkest days to its vibrant present.
