Your informative and knowledgeable guide will collect you from your Sydney hotel as we commence our private journey of Sydney and its City Highlights and the little visited picturesque Northern Beaches. We begin in the Sydney old town (The Rocks) and CBD (Central Business District)for you to learn about the settling of Sydney, colonial convict history and the modern financially focussed skyscrapers. We visit Macquarie St and MrsMacquarie’s Chair where some of Sydney’s most historic sites and buildings are located as well as prime views of Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge.
From here, it is time to escape the hustle and bustle of Sydney city and crossing The Sydney Harbour Bridge we travel through picturesque Northern Suburbs as we make our way to the Northern Beaches Peninsula. Arriving via the lushly forested Wakehurst Parkway we join the coast at Warriewood Headland for stunning views and morning tea/coffee refreshments. Driving on, we follow the coastline and enjoying stunning beach views before arriving at the Long Reef Headland. Here time to stretch your legs and enjoy the walk to the lookout for spectacular coastal views.
Heading into the local suburb of Dee Why we head to the beachfront to enjoy a leisurely lunch at one of the popular local restaurants. Here, with stunning beach views, we enjoy a delicious 2 course lunch of your choice off the menu, accompanied by a glass of beer, wine or soft drink. After lunch, we have time to enjoy a walk on the beach or perhaps enjoy a swim in the ocean! As we continue our exploration of local life in the Peninsula, we stop in at the iconic 4 Pines Brewery, where the machination of brewing meets the experience of drinking. 4 Pines Truck Bar is built inside the main brewery giving the customer the unique experience of drinking award-winning beer in the very place it is conceived and brewed. The bar is built of and around an old Dodge Truck and showcases 21 taps, including all our core range beers as well as rotating taps showcasing the large variety of small batch ‘Keller Door’ beers our brewery team produce. Here chat with the local bar tender as we enjoy a tasting paddle of a selection of Brews. Our final stop of the day is in the well-known beach suburb of Manly for time to walk the esplanade, stopping to watch a local beach volleyball game or observe the local surfers before a final pause at North Head for stunning views back across the Sydney harbour entrance to Sydney city.
From here you can choose to stay on in Manly – perhaps enjoy a sunset dinner at one of the harbour side restaurants/bars before returning to the city via ferry at your leisure/cost. Alternatively, your guide will drive you back to the city via Spit Bridge, Balmoral Beach and back roads through the exclusive and quaint north shore suburbs of Mosman, Cremorne and Neutral Bay to arrive back approximately 5.00-5.30pm.

We spent almost 9 hours on a bus with inadequate air conditioning and no curtains, exposed to the sun for most of the journey. The guide’s audio was barely understandable, and the audio guides for non-English speakers were practically useless.
We spent more time on the bus than actually enjoying the places we visited. Very disappointing, especially for such a long and expensive tour.
We had the most incredible Blue Mountains tour celebrating my mom’s 50th birthday! The entire day was unforgettable — from the stunning scenery to the amazing experiences along the way. We especially loved stopping in the charming local town and visiting the zoo, where we got to go inside the enclosures with wallabies and see koalas up close. It made the trip feel so personal and special.
A huge thank you to our wonderful tour guide, Helder, who truly made the day even better. He was so knowledgeable, friendly, and incredibly talented at photography — he captured beautiful photos for us throughout the tour that we’ll treasure forever. He went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a great experience.
Highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Australia, especially if you’re celebrating a special occasion!
Our guide Helder, was so interesting, knowledgeable and humorous which made the trip all the more enjoyable.
Highlights were a farm with kangaroos, koalas, emus and many other favorites, waterfalls, Blue Mountains, a fantastic lunch (we had the delicious beef pie) and many other sites.
Highly recommend this tour. You won’t regret it.
Excellent, we loved it and the guide was fantastic, always available to explain everything with excellent general knowledge. I recommend him for his professionalism and friendliness.
We also took an all-day tour of the Blue Mountains with Larry, whose knowledge of the history, geology, flora, and fauna of the mountains is nothing short of spectacular. If you visit Sydney, take a tour with AEA. You will not regret it.
Give him a raise . We really saw a lot in one day , they provide lunch . Not only plants , botanical gardens , the farm with kangaroos, Koala, and more , the Grand Canyon , waterfalls . And cockatoos as wild all over . He made sure to explain everything and answer our questions. He was on time all day !
Karyn was great, very informative, and knowledgeable about her history.
