This is a fully private tour - your group only!
The Royal National Park has waterfalls, cliffs, beaches, rock platforms, sand dunes and rainforest.
On our walk to Wedding Cake Rock we will see native animals and plants, and panoramic views from steep cliffs.
The pure white sandstone of Wedding Cake Rock is perfectly complemented by the blue Pacific Ocean.
The next stop after the walk is Wattamolla Beach and waterfall followed by a drive through the park where we see tall timber and rainforest.
Leaving the park presents yet more spectacular views at Bald Hill lookout.
It is time to choose whether to visit Symbio Wildlife Park and enjoy a diverse range of native animals or go further south and explore a local beach, Sea Cliff Bridge and a renovated historic hotel.
The day is flexible and we can do a longer walk to Eagle Rock, or do no walks at all if you prefer minimal walking.
We will walk at a pace that suits your group.
Join us for an uplifting day in nature.

An unexpected adventure

5.00Greg is very happy to change the itinerary. We did the hike to Eagle Rock which took a few hours. Highly recommended for the views! This is a medium hike which can take 2.5 hours.We did four wildlife parks on our cruise, so we're looking for something else. We suggested the kayaking but the place in Royal National Park was closed due to high winds. He suggested the glow worms at the abandoned train tunnel. Amazing experience. It was like looking at the stars while listening to the birds outside. Something out of a Hitchcock movie. The lunch was excellant. Nothing like having a homemade lunch, on a picnic table, in the forest with birds eyeing you after the hike. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a truly memorable adventure.
Lovely Bespoke hike/tour day in Royal National Park and Sydney

5.00Had a lovely day with Greg. We picked the Royal National Park tour but then ended up with a bespoke tour as we wanted a more challenging hike and had already visited the other sites listed on the original tour. Hiked Eagle Rock, had a nice picnic lunch (too bad the kookaburra flew off!), and then a leisurely drive through Sydney on the way back to our hotel. Greg pointed out buildings of architectural interest and we stopped twice for short walk arounds. Greg (of Sydney Nimble Tours) was truly nimble in adjusting the itinerary to suit us! We would definitely recommend Greg and Sydney Nimble Tours.
Great tour, fantastic host

5.00The value of this tour was so much more than the places we visited - Greg made sure we had the absolute best time we could have. Traveling as a family, we had a lot of requests for minor adjustments and Greg not only was flexible in accommodating those, but was also proactive in suggesting ways to improve our day. We had a blast and it's by far the day that our toddler talks about the most from the trip.
Excellent experience

5.00Greg picked us up nearly our hotel, and head straight to Royal National Park. He showed us where were the best spots to take photos and also helped to took some for us. The whole trip was excellent. I have traveled 24 countries and joined a lot of local tours, Greg's tour is one of the best one I have ever joined. Though we did not use to talk much
Do this trip vs the Blue Mountain tours- you won’t be disappointed!

5.00Greg was very punctual picking us up & extremely knowledgeable about the park and it’s surroundings, This not an easy hike and can be quite slippery over rocks and wet areas of the trail but Greg was very patient throughout the hike. Hand made much was delicious after the hike. He timed the wildlife visit at feeding time and were treated to many animals very active and easily visible. This wasn’t a zoo but more like a wildlife sanctuary and the staff deeply cares for the animals well being. Great views of the rugged Australian coast, terrific exercise, nice lunch, getting to see local wildlife up close and personal. Worth the long day & the hiking experience that will be even more special once whale sighting season begins! Mahalo Greg! 🤙🏼We thoroughly enjoyed it.
