6 hour private tour itinerary:
Spend 4 hours exploring the classic ‘must see’ sights of Sydney including The Rocks, Sydney Harbour foreshore, Sydney Harbour Bridge, Sydney Opera House, Mrs Macquarie’s Chair, King’s Cross, Watson’s Bay, Bondi Beach.
Add 2 hours of your choice with the following themes:
- Option 1: Natural wonder – Escape to the beautiful north and see more beaches like Manly and Balmoral while also exploring the rugged beauty of Ku-Ring-Gai National Park
- Option 2: Art and Culture – Visit a selection of local galleries/museums and experience the local creative scene. Depending on the day of tour, this could be the Brett Whitely Studio, White Rabbit Gallery, Aquabumps studio or any of your choice.

- Option 5: Sydney by Night – Either finish your afternoon tour in the evening or have most of the tour in the evening hours, it’s up to you. Sydney is an exciting city to explore after dark and the harbour sparkles with reflections and colours. Great for the photographer, foodie or anyone after a unique Sydney tour.

What truly set this tour apart was the incredible flexibility. Charlie was happy to mold the itinerary on the fly throughout the day, ensuring we spent time on the sights we loved most while avoiding the typical tourist crowds. If you are looking for a tailored, professional, and stress-free way to see the Blue Mountains, I cannot recommend Charlie and this team highly enough!
our guide was very friendly, chatty, suggesting different stops and guiding through the whole tour. would definitely do again and recommend
Charlie, our guide, was incredible. He was so knowledgeable and interesting and it was great to experience his passion and obvious love of the area. He took us to all the best spots, and it was so relaxed, like going out for the day with an old friend. One of our party has a disability which affects her mobility and he tailored the tour to her needs, whilst ensuring we saw so much. Lunch at a little cafe in the mountains was perfect and the whole day was just wonderful. We would never have seen anything like the amount of sights we saw if we’d tried to do it ourselves, and a group tour wouldn’t have allowed the flexibility that this did.
Thanks so much Charlie!
We loved all the special places in the nature, the lunch spot and the winery.
It was a brilliant day and one of your trip highlights.
He took the time to get to know us on the drive and thoughtfully customized the entire day based on our interests, personalities, and even the weather—resulting in a perfectly curated itinerary. Even making a pit stop at a local winery which ended up being the absolute highlight of the day.
If you’re looking for a truly customized, worthwhile experience exploring the beauty of the Blue Mountains, I highly recommend this private tour.
What made this so good was the easy rapport with Alex. She was informative but also in tune with our needs, providing water and breaks and toilet stops as needed. We were not pressured to keep a schedule and the scenery was off the hook. We felt like VIP's from beginning to end. We recommend Alex and Your Sydney Guide without reservation.
Charlie guided us through beautiful hiking trails, allowing us to see beautiful waterfalls and stunning views from different spots. He was flexible and made sure we could comfortably see the highlights of the Blue Mountains at our own pace (the big advantage of a private guide).
I would highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to make the most of a single day in this gorgeous region.

Scott’s passion for Sydney and his deep understanding of its history brought every stop to life. He didn’t just show us the sights — he gave us context, stories, and insights that helped us truly appreciate Australia’s past and how Sydney became what it is today. The historical areas were fascinating and thoughtfully chosen.
What made the experience extra special was how completely he tailored the day to what we wanted to do. It was personal, relaxed, and perfectly paced.
And lunch at the Sydney Fish Market was a huge highlight — such a fun, authentic, and delicious experience that we never would have navigated so well on our own!
If you want a customized, engaging, and memorable way to see Sydney, we cannot recommend Your Sydney Guide highly enough. Scott is outstanding.
Scott was pleasant, incredibly knowledgeable, and wonderful to spend the day with. We loved visiting Featherdale, getting up close with the animals, and finishing with a relaxing wine tasting.
Highly recommend — especially for families looking for a thoughtful, customized experience!
We were a big group of 15 people, and somehow everything ran smoothly — we were always on time without it ever feeling rushed or stressful. Scott took us to some of the best spots in the Southern Highlands and made the whole day feel like a fun, relaxed adventure with friends and family.
Honestly, it was completely stress-free and such a good vibe overall. Would 100% recommend Scott if you’re after a smooth, well-paced, and genuinely fun day out.
And then we were off for an amazing day. He found the sweet spot for our diverse fitness levels. Showed us beautiful places in Royal National park, coastal walk and a great city tour. Perfect way to start our holiday in Sydney. Thanks for being flexible
Scott customized our hike based on exactly what we were looking for that day, and it was absolutely beautiful. We ended the day with a lovely lunch, followed by a visit to the Megalong Valley for wine and a charcuterie board, which was the perfect finish. The entire experience was exactly the kind of little private escape we had hoped it would be.
We highly recommend Scott and Your Sydney Guide, and we will absolutely be calling him again next time we’re back in Sydney.
From the very start, Scott, the owner, was fantastic. He helped us secure a highly sought-after date, took the time to understand what mattered most to our family, and thoughtfully tailored the itinerary to match our interests. Most importantly, he paired us with Sam as our tour guide.
Sam was, without question, the star of the day and one of the highlights of our entire trip to Australia. She was the perfect guide: warm, knowledgeable, flexible, and genuinely engaging. Her background in animal care, sanctuary work, and even venomous snake handling added incredible depth to everything we saw and learned in the Blue Mountains. She shared insights about wildlife, ecology, and everyday life in Australia that made the day both fascinating and fun — and the time absolutely flew by.
What truly set Sam apart was how naturally she connected with our family. She instantly bonded with our 12-year-old daughter (who later declared Sam her favorite person she met in Australia), and even went out of her way to make a spontaneous stop at Woolworths to hunt down Pascall Clinkers — not on the itinerary, but unforgettable for our daughter. Sam was also a great photographer, a wonderful conversationalist, and even gave invaluable advice for driving on the left when we headed to Melbourne.
Throughout the day, everything felt perfectly paced. We were always where we needed to be, yet never rushed, and Sam made it easy to adjust plans on the fly. Saying goodbye at the end of the tour genuinely felt sad — a true sign of how special the experience was.
If you’re considering a tour, book with Your Sydney Guide. The experience is top-notch, deeply personalized, and absolutely worth every penny. They delivered more than we hoped for.

It was an amazing and fantastic day, in fact the one of our best days in Australia. She knew a lot about the surroundings, she was also extremely pleasant and helpful throughout the whole day, showing us places we wouldn't have seen and experienced, if we had chosen to go on a bus tour.
So we give our best recommendations from here.
As an Australian I thought I knew this city but I can truly say that before this tour with Scott I had not seen many of the spots he took us to. Scott explained the history of this amazing city and its surrounds along with many other points of interest as to the spots we were taken to .
What makes a great tour guide is passion , knowledge , inspiration and preparation and the ability to read his clients as to when times to be accompanied and left to our own devices .,Scott listened to our requirements and ticked every box and some special surprises were thrown in . Thanks Scott for the great pie shop , you were right that pie was the best .
Whether it be a great famous pie or a top restaurant suggestion to the hidden spots with great views Scott had it all .
Your personal touch made us miss you and your great city which you know so well .
Thanks very much to the team at Your Sydney Guide and thanks Scott .
Easy 2+ hr trip to and from Sydney.
Deserve 5+ stars.
The tour can be personalized to your taste.
Through out the day Charlie was very engaging and shared lots of historical facts as well as current local knowledge. We ended the trip with a ferry ride into Sydney harbour and circular quay.
Would highly recommended this trip, well worth the money.
In February before a transpacific cruise,
Blue Mountains and Tour of Sydney.
We Loved both tours!
My husband is still taking about the
Blue Mountains tour and how Fabio helped with the wheelchair accessibility.
It was wonderful to be able to see this beautiful part of your country.
I would recommend this company 100%
