Meet your knowledgeable guide at your hotel, then take a private tour of Sydney away from the city center. Crossing the harbor and leaving the northern suburbs behind, you soon find yourself surrounded by the pristine native bush of Ku-ring-gai National Park.

The drive continues to the coast, stopping at West Head for morning tea. See fantastic Pacific Ocean views from the vantage point here, then take a walk back through the millennia on a visit to see Aboriginal rock engravings believed to be thousands of years old.

Back on the coast, follow the beaches north to the long stretch of sand known as Palm beach, metropolitan Sydneys most northern surf beach, beloved by the citys rich and famous. Enjoy lunch with scenic views at award-winning, secluded Jonah's Restaurant, perched on the cliff top at nearby Whale Beach, overlooking the Pacific Ocean.

After lunch, the return trip to Sydney takes you along North Sydneys long coastline, passing a string of golden beaches including Curl Curl and Manly, and stopping at North Head for great views across the harbor to the city.

Back in the city center, see the sights of Central Sydney on a private tour that takes you to see Sydneys origins in the historic The rocks area, the iconic Sydney opera house, the sandstone seat known as Mrs Macquaries Chair, and the affluent houses and manicured gardens of Sydney's eastern suburbs.

Visit the sandstone cliffs at the Gap in Watsons bay for fabulous Pacific Ocean views, then return to the Sydney city center, arriving at your hotel at approximately 5:30pm.
