A fantastic way to discover a different side of Australia! The private tour took us beyond the usual tourist spots and gave us a chance to experience beautiful nature and wildlife up close. The whole experience felt personal, relaxed, and well organized. A memorable day and definitely worth doing if you want to see Australia beyond the city! Thank you Matt.

It was great having you along, and I hope you take home some fantastic memories of your Australian adventure!

We visited Sydney three years ago and had Matt as a tour guide we thought he was great then and when we had the opportunity to have him as our tour guide for this visit we booked him as our guide. Matt is a great guide and very flexible with the schedule. He is a true bushman! Our tour started with him showing us various leaves and how they could be used to clean, other leaves that were used for wounds and medicinal purposes. we were leaving an area and noticed a white barked tree with what looked like a black rope running up the tree. He pulled over and pulled some of the bark off the tree to show us that the black rope was actually termites and a good source of protein in the bush. He did eat them, we passed on the opportunity to taste them! We enjoyed the visit to the Sanctuary and the opportunity to pet the animals. The magic garden was very special and the lunch on the beach was exceptional. It was a great day full of educational activities, learning about how to survive in the bush and the history of Sydney. A wonderful day spent with a very creative guide.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for doing another tour with me after three years! It was an absolute pleasure to spend another day with you both, and I'm so glad you enjoyed discovering some of Australia's more unusual and hidden sides.
I'm impressed you both politely declined the termite tasting, although I have to admit, they're not exactly Michelin-star material. ;)
It was fantastic to share my little bit of bush knowledge, our wildlife, a few of Sydney's special hidden places with you again. I'm especially happy that you enjoyed Walkabout Wildlife Sanctuary, they do a great job with our rescued animals.
Thank you for trusting me with another day of your Australian adventure. Hopefully it won't be another three years before we get to do it again. :)
Until then, safe travels and keep exploring!
Kind regards,
Matt

Highlight of Sydney
What can I say.....meeting Matt was the highlight of our time in Sydney
Matts passion and enthusiasm for what he does sweeps you along to such a memorable experience
The trip covers so much and is so varied. We learnt about plants, the land, history and visited stunning locations and saw aboriginal carvings which was amazing
The visit to the animal sanctuary was the best. The close up experience with Chilli the Koala is something I'll never forget and feeding time with the kangaroos, wallabies and Emus was magic . You can see the hard work and dedication by the whole team helping rescue all these wonderful animals
Matt is so friendly and a wicked sense of humour the time just flew by and we absolutely loved every minute of this tour
Matt puts so much into personalising what you want to see and his years of expertise really shows
We are so glad we booked this tour....don't miss out you will have the best time

Sarah, I’m blushing! Thank you so much for such a wonderfully kind review.
There’s a lot of Australia we packed into that day, but having the right people along for the ride makes all the difference. You and Graham were brilliant company!
Watching you both get that close to the koala was one of the moments that makes me love what I do. It was an absolute pleasure showing you some of my favourite corners of Sydney, wild places to kangaroos, wallabies, emus and, of course, one very photogenic koala.
Thank you for trusting me with your day. I’m so glad you booked the tour, and I hope Australia has left you with a few stories you’ll be telling for years to come.
Happy travels around Oz! All the best…

Outstanding
Of all the things we did in Sydney this was by far the best. I'm so glad that I saved this until the last day and saved the best until last.
This is the ultimate "Australia in a day" trip. We experienced:
- some iconic shots of the Opera House and Bridge
- got up close and personal with a koala
- spent some magical time at a wildlife sanctuary watching the free running (hopping) kangaroos and wallabies
- made friends with random cockatoos
- saw parrots, stingless bees and kookaburras
- ate delicious fresh oysters
- saw spectacular views of the Hawksbury River - experienced a mangrove boardwalk and tasted some authentic wild sarsaparilla
- saw 4000 year old aboriginal carvings
- spent time at stunning beaches and explored rock formations and pools
- had a delicious relaxing lunch at a super cool surfing spot.
The entire day was spent with the company of not only a fantastic guide but a very nice person. We enjoyed spending the time with Matt as much as we did experiencing the things he shared with us.
This is the number one tour in Sydney if you want to get away from the city and see the fabulous scenery and wildlife in the surrounding areas.
Avoid the big bus tours and trust Matt to share his Australia with you.

Graham & Sarah, what a review! Thank you so much.
I’m absolutely thrilled you saved the best until last, although now I’m wondering if I’ve set the bar dangerously high for your next visit!
It was such a pleasure spending the day with you both and showing you the Australia that exists beyond the usual tourist trail. We sure did see a lot yesterday - not a bad day at the office!
Thanks again for choosing Sydney Guided Tours and for being such wonderful company. Hope to see you both back in Australia for another adventure someday!
Happy travels around The Magical Land of Oz…

The BEST experience you could have of Sydney!
If you do ANYTHING while you’re in Sydney, take Matt’s tour!!! We had the absolute BEST day learning about the Australian bush, aboriginal knowledge, neat plants, petting the FLUFFIEST animals, and taking in gorgeous sites. Matt is one of a kind and we will be talking about this tour as a highlight of our trip, no doubt🤩

Aubree! Thank you so much for the wonderful review! I had such a great time showing you around Sydney too. You were fantastic company, and I’m so glad you got to see the seal at sunset as well!
Although, I have to admit, photographing your portraits was quite a challenge. I’m pretty sure there was a secret agreement between you two that whenever one of you had your eyes open, the other would close theirs! We eventually got there, though!
Good luck with the Sydney Marathon tomorrow. I’ll be cheering you on from the sidelines, and I hope you both have an amazing run.
It was a real pleasure spending the day with you. Hopefully I’ll see you back in Sydney one day.
All the very best, and safe travels!

Grandsons are hard to please, but Matt did it!
Matt was a lovely, creative, responsive guide who provided an informative and funny day for grandmother and grandson alike. We learned a lot about the country, the animals, the humor, and enjoyed our ATV off-roading adventure. Matt can craft a fabulous day covering your groups interests.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was an absolute pleasure spending the day with both of you. I'm so glad I could put together an experience that kept everyone entertained - including myself! There’s nothing better than ending the day, munching on a packet of Aussie Fruit Tingles with new fiends! :)
Australia certainly has no shortage of quirky wildlife, and I’m so happy you enjoyed the quad bike adventure as well. One of the best parts of running this tours is being able to tailor the day to each group's interests, so it's great to hear that made a difference.
Thanks again for choosing Sydney Guided Tours. I hope the memories, and photos, bring back plenty of smiles for years to come. Wishing you both safe travels, and I'd love to welcome you back for another Australian adventure one day!
Cheers mateys,

Best tour of our trip
This is the kind of tour people remember long after the experience.... Within the first few minutes, we knew it was going to be a great day. Within the first hour, we felt like we were on a road trip with our friends. From booking to pick up, from suggestions to surprises, this was a day like no other. Matt was absolutely stellar from beginning to end - and it is the one tour we kept talking about afterwards. From the ATV ride in the rain (sooo much fun!), to kangaroos and wallabies at the Walkabout Wildlife Sanctuary to the many surprises Matt built into our day (don't want to give too much away), the day was phenomenal. We saw so much, and learned so much from Matt, that it was truly a highlight of our journey to Australia. We laughed and talked and walked and learned. Lunch at Avoca Beach was fabulous. We highly recommend Matt - and if we make it back to Australia, we'll definitely be booking another day with him.

Wow… thank you so much for such an incredibly thoughtful review. Reading this honestly put a huge smile on my face.
I loved spending the day with you both, and I’m so happy the tour felt more like a fun road trip with friends than a “tour”.
It means a lot to hear that this became one of the highlights of your Australian journey. Sharing our wildlife, landscapes, stories, and hidden corners with wonderful people like yourselves is exactly why I do what I do.
Thank you again for your kindness, your sense of adventure, and for being such fantastic company throughout the day. If you ever make it back to Australia, I’d absolutely love to take you on another adventure.
Safe travels and hopefully our paths cross again one day!
Cheers!

Best tour ever
There are not enough words to describe how great was this tour.
Being a private tour, you can choose your sights and a time you spend at each of those. We had a Sydney city tour just the day before so this was the perfect opportunity to see more of the beautiful nature. Matt was great and he and he shared so many interesting insights in such an engaging way that we never feel bored.
The stop at the wildlife park with all of the Australian wildlife was a blast, as we had a close encounter with koalas & kangaroos. It was a colder windy day but Matt had everything planned and brought wind jacket for us to use (he also had some chocolates & champagne stocked in the vehicle for us to enjoy).
He also took a bunch of high-quality photos for us, with his camera (not a phone), and email those to us at the end of the day. You will not regret booking this tour as it is great way to see sights that you probably never see with a large group tour, and we cannot recommend Matt highly enough (he also have a great taste in music)

Boris, thank you, this review really means a lot. It was such a pleasure spending the day with you and the family. Getting out into the bush and showing you a different side of Sydney is always where the magic happens.
I’m so glad you enjoyed the wildlife encounters, even when the weather decides to add a bit of drama. :) And I’m glad the music passed the test too, it's always a risky moment handing over control of the soundtracks.
Thanks again for choosing to spend your day exploring with me, and I hope the photos bring back some great memories for years to come.
Safe travels and hopefully we can do round two next time you’re back in Australia.

Unforgettable Sydney experience
Matt was the best decision we made for our short but sweet Sydney experience! Our time was super limited but our day spent with Matt checked a lot of boxes plus more! He took us to places that were off the beaten path and gave us a locals view of Sydney. He was great with the kids and adults as well. He is also a great photographer who shared all of his pictures with us at the end of the day. Couldn’t recommend him more!! Thanks Matt!

Thank you so much for the kind words. I’m really glad I could make the most of your short time in Sydney and show you a few special spots beyond the usual tourist trail.
It was a pleasure spending the day with your family, the kids were fantastic company, and I’m happy the photos will help keep the memories alive.
Hope to see you all back in Australia one day for round two. 😊
