Private 2-Day Sydney to Canberra Tour | Coast To Capital Escape

Two days. Two completely different landscapes. One continuous private journey from Sydney's coastline to the heart of the nation.
Day 1 begins with breathtaking coastal vistas from Bald Hill Lookout over the Illawarra coastline, before continuing to Kiama to witness the raw power of the ocean at the famous blowhole. From the coast we climb the escarpment via Macquarie Pass into the Southern Highlands, arriving in Bowral for lunch before continuing south to Canberra.
Day 2 is yours to explore the capital at your own pace — the Australian War Memorial, Old Parliament House, Parliament House, the National Gallery, National Museum, and the National Arboretum are all on the table. Have a specific interest or venue in mind? As a fully private tour I'm happy to discuss alternatives within the Canberra region — just ask at the time of booking.
I've been guiding private tours from Sydney since 2009. No strangers, no fixed schedule, no rushing.

What To Expect
Bald Hill Lookout
One of the most dramatic coastal viewpoints in NSW. From this clifftop vantage point you'll look out over the Illawarra coastline with the famous Sea Cliff Bridge curving out over the ocean below — a view that stops people mid-sentence.
Kiama Blowhole
One of Australia's most powerful natural blowholes, where the Southern Ocean forces seawater through a rock fissure with remarkable force. Timing and swell-dependent, but always worth the stop. The surrounding headland and rock pools are worth a wander.

A 10 out of 10 Canberra Experience!

5.00It was a last minute decision to take this trip and there is no regret doing it! Fist of all, our guide David Richards was most accommodating and never ran out of topics to discuss during the entire trip... not to mention the meat pie stop we had halfway to Canberra. There was never a dull moment considering the long drive from Sydney to Canberra and back. Canberra scenes is completely amazing and more than surpassed our expectations. The amount of history we learned about Australian politics and government is unimaginable given our short stay. Hardly we ever imagined the role and contribution of Australian men and women in peacekeeping around the world had we missed this trip. We will surely recommend this visit to Canberra to our friends and relatives in the Philippines. This is for all Australian visitors to see! It's a must!
Dave's tour was amazing.

5.00David was a great host, very informative and definitely willing to cater the trip and sights to my preferences. There were no real time constraints on any of the particular locations, just on our time available in Canberra. It was an excellent value for price, and I would definitely do it again.
