Travelling with a private group?
Tell us your preferred date, number of adults and children, pickup area and the places you most want to visit. A shorter city outing may suit an arrival day; a regional day trip needs more time. Include any luggage, child-seat or mobility requirements so arrangements can be checked before a quote is confirmed.
Request help with a group outingPlan around your stay
Only one day available
Keep your activities close together and allow time for check-in, boarding and transfers. A city or harbour experience is easier to combine with sightseeing around Circular Quay than a full-day regional excursion.
Staying for several days
Spread your activities out: city and harbour first, a separate coast or wildlife day, then a Blue Mountains excursion. Leave flexibility for weather and avoid tight evening commitments after a long day trip.
Arriving by cruise ship
Share your terminal, expected disembarkation time and the ship’s all-aboard deadline. Ask for pickup and return arrangements in writing; a scheduled day tour may not fit your port call.

Can every experience be booked through Sydney Tours?
This directory includes experience information. Contact us to check which arrangements we can assist with. A listing does not mean we operate the activity or have confirmed booking availability.
Why are prices not listed for every experience?
Rates can depend on your date, passenger ages, inclusions and operator. Ask for the total price and any optional costs in writing before confirming.
How should I compare two similar tours?
Compare the total price alongside group size, time at each stop, walking, meals, attraction entry, pickup and return arrangements, and cancellation terms.
What if someone in our group needs additional assistance?
Describe the assistance or equipment needed when enquiring. Vehicle access, wharves, paths and attractions vary; suitability must be checked for the specific experience.
