5.00With Newy Tour Co, we experience a fabulous tour of the east end precinct of Newcastle, NSW, where coastal beauty meets rich history. Tour guide, Keira, radiated enthusiasm in extolling the wonders of her home town. She was organised, punctual, and an engaging storyteller who knows how to keep her tourists interested. The 3 hours far exceeded our expectations. Highly recommended.
On time, excellent vehicle, so informative and enjoyable.

5.00Tour was very informative. Host Nathan was friendly and very knowledgeable- he grew up & resides in Newcastle. Visited 5 historic sites and a drive through the city area. I learned a lot about the area and the Novocastrian people. I would highly recommend this tour to first time visitors. Well done Nathan.

5.00Me and my friends had the best time touring Newcastle. Nathan is the best tour guide not only he was born and raised there, but because of how he represents how he is enjoying his life as he tours us around. Newcastle has a rich art and culture history 👍👏
Relaxed and informative tour
