Sydney Tour Guide Recommendation


Recommended Posts

I used a private guide (not through a ship) for a tour of the Blue Mountains and Featherdale Wildlife Park: Peter Bailey. He was a really good guide. I am posting this recommendation as of the excursions that i took from Celebrity (5 of the 7 ship excursions) all were lousy. I was so so glad that i did this private tour (the day if boarding the Solstice on Dec 22) as it was truly the highlight of my trip. I explained to Peter through email communications what i wanted to do, and he suggested an early start since i wanted to be on the ship by 3:30. Peter met me at my Circular Quay hotel, and loaded up my cruise suitcases in his van and off we went for a really enjoyable day.

 

Peter is a great guide. His suggestions were right on. Leaving early we avoided all congestion, avoided the tour busses, and achieved everything I was seeking to do. I have posted a review on Trip Advisor in greater detail. His website

Go to Central Railway Station & get the train to either Kiama or Newcastle.

 

A lot cheap than a tour & believe it or not, more scenic.

 

You cannot purchase rail tickets any more, you will need an Opal Ticket. Purchase on the net.
