New South Wales Tours & Trips
Looking beyond Sydney's harbor? New South Wales extends with remarkable variety. The Blue Mountains sit an hour west with eucalyptus-hazed valleys, Hunter Valley delivers wine country, Byron Bay attracts a particular crowd. The South Coast has beaches without the crowds, while the North Coast trends warmer and more tropical, and the Snowy Mountains handle winter skiing. Your memories will stay with you forever.

Hotel was too far from the sights seeing and we wished that hotel was in city center to explore more. We paid lots of money for Uber

Eoin is a terrific guide, helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. Goes beyond just informing us. Great accommodations, especially loved the Beachfront Motel in Byron Bay. Our indigenous guide was sincere in his love for the land and heritage. It was a wonderful trip.

As far as tours go, it's great to have others to enjoy with. Wake Up was a nice hostel with a great breakfast included the first day. That day I chose to take the ferry to Manly where our tour guide Georgia showed us shopping, the beach, and this great acai bowl restaurant. From Sydney we took the 9 hour train ride to surf x camp in arrawara. The teepee I slept in was so cool. The surf lesson was great...but we only had less than 1 hour surfing in the water, if we wanted more we had to pay more, in the afternoon we went for a walk along the beach with some local indiginous people to learn about the plants of the area and try some, we stopped at the campground to find kangaroo. The food at surf X was good. surf x still hasn't sent us the link for the surfing photos though. Byron Bay is a great surf town, although I didn't surf Wake Up had free surfboards available...I had purchased the option to kayak with dolphins and didn't feel like surfing after that. the town had lots of little shops and restaurants and a walk to the lighthouse and furthest easterly point in Australia. The next day we went to Brisbane, after a koala bushwalk where we didn't see koala. In Brisbane check out Southbank and Queen street after dark.
