Absolutely amazing! Matt is an expert at Australian wildlife the bush and beaches. We saw kangaroos wallabees koalas birds flying fox bats emus and lizards. Our tour of the national park and trails was outstanding and Matt's knowledge of the trees bushes birds etc was out of this world. He is not only a excellent down to earth tour guide but a genuine good guy with a great sense of humor. To book with Matt is time and money we'll spent and will definitely book with him on future trips . You will not be disappointed and I can tell you it will be your best day in the area. Thanks Matt and see you next time!

Matt is a knowledgeable and exceptional guide. This tour is unlike anything we ever expected and the sights and experiences he took us to have created truly special memories. We centered our tour around around nature and the wildlife and it was truly one of a kind and well worth the money and time spent. Matt is also a very friendly and kind person and he truly kept us engaged and happy from start to finish. Please book this tour way in advance as he books up quickly and the reason being is that there no other tour as unique and memorable as this one. Thank you Matt for a truly memorable and exciting experience.

My wife and I have experienced many guided tours over the years, and I can confidently say that the personalized tour Matt provided was truly exceptional. If you are looking to explore Sydney beyond the typical tourist spots, Matt is the perfect guide. His deep local knowledge and passion for the area made for a unique and memorable experience. From sampling native flora and learning about local trees, to an up-close koala and kangaroo encounter, stunning beach locations, and even witnessing trees filled with bats, every part of the tour was thoughtfully curated. The mid-day had a fantastic meal by the beach. Matt is personable, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what he does. I would highly recommend reaching out to him if you are considering a private, customized tour of Sydney.

I can’t recommend this tour enough! We had an incredible time with Matt. He was super knowledgeable, kind, and just a fun person to get to know. We had a great time at all of the stops. The wildlife portions were a blast, and we got to see some amazing local sights that had no other tourists anywhere. 11/10 tour!

Matt is a friendly, knowledgeable guide. He caters the tour to your specific interests, and is so easy to hang out with all day. The special stops along the way are made so special with the relationships he's created. Especially enjoyed the colorful birds and of course the koala and kangaroo encounters. Best idea for a short stay in Sydney before a cruise.

It seems like it will be a long day by the schedule, but the time flies by so fast because it is so amazing and you are having so much fun! Matt, our Tour Guide and Wildlife Whisperer was simply the best. He took us to many places of beauty- nature strolls in the bush, scenic river overlooks, beach/ocean vistas, bar “hang-outs”, and then wildlife sanctuary was one of the most thrilling experiences you could ever have if you even remotely love the koala, kangaroo, emu, wallaby, pademelon, exotic birds, and more. To actually get so close to all of these animals was an experience you’ll never forget. Matt told us many stories and talked about the history of the region, was a great driver, and a fun fellow to spend the day with. We could not recommend this trip more highly to anyone with the time to do it.

The day trip that we took with Matt was the best day of our month long trip! Matt picked us up at our hotel on time and within the first couple of minutes we knew it was going to be a great day! We spent the day doing all the things we love. We got to pet a Koala and Kangaroo. Feed Cockatoos and so much more. He took us to a quiet beach restaurant for lunch and we even got to go to a beautiful winery! We had the best day with Matt!

We had an absolutely fantastic day with Matt from Sydney Guided Tours! From start to finish, he was excellent — extremely friendly, welcoming, and professional. His knowledge of the area was incredible, and he shared so many interesting insights in such an engaging way that the whole experience felt both fun and informative. Matt took us to breathtaking views we never would have found on our own. Every stop felt special and thoughtfully chosen. One of the highlights was getting to play with a koala — such an unforgettable experience! To top it all off, Matt was basically our personal photographer for the day, making sure we had amazing photos to remember everything. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Highly recommend Sydney Guided Tours and especially Matt — it truly made our trip unforgettable!
