South of Sydney past Wollongong, the coastline shifts to volcanic headlands, sea cliffs, and uncrowded beaches. This private tour is tailored to your group, with Greg as your guide. Visit Kiama and hear the boom of ocean water surging into a chamber and the surrounding air becoming compressed. If the seas are up enjoy the exhilarating view of sea water blasting out of the blowhole high into the air (up to 25 metres). We then head around the corner to the little blowhole for some more salt water action. Next stop are the unique basalt columns of Bombo Headland and the Stack Island at Minnamurra. Next stop is the impressively engineered Sea Cliff Bridge which curves around the surrounding sea cliffs. In the afternoon the Royal National Park provides a few choices including Wattamolla waterfall, a coastal walk, or a visit to Symbio Wildlife Park. The itinerary will be adjusted to match your interests and walking preferences. A delicious picnic lunch is included.

    What you'll see and do

    1. Kiama Blowhole

      Blowholes are sometimes referred to as marine geysers and are a rare geological feature. The Kiama blowhole is an intriguing place. As you wait for a wave to pass through the connected sea cave an air of anticipation arises. When a loud swoosh is heard a high pressured release of sea water occurs in the form of a spectacular spray. Just to make sure you get your fill of blowholes we visit a second contrasting blowhole which shoots a more stylish seawater plume. Sydney is fortunate to have such a wonderful natural entertainment system within a 2 hour drive.

    2. Bombo Headland

      The Bombo Headland Geological Site is a former quarry which contains remnants of many broken rocks. Basalt lava columns still remain in certain parts of the former quarry providing a surreal site against the background of the ocean. Photographers love this place!

    3. Cathedral Rocks

      A sea cave and stunning volcanic rocks jutting out of the ocean catch our attention when we visit Cathedral rocks.

      30 minutes here · Admission included

    4. Minnamurra Point provides two lookouts, one for viewing whales and the other provides spectacular views of the beach and Stack Island.

      30 minutes here

    5. Sea Cliff Bridge

      Sea Cliff Bridge is an amazing bridge that was built to replace an existing road that required closure due to rockfalls from the enormous cliff face above it. The curvature of the road is unique and provides a breathtaking vantage point of the ocean and beach below.

      30 minutes here · Admission included

    6. Bald Hill Lookout & Hang Gliding Spot

      Bald Hill is a place where you can watch hang gliders take off and sail above you. It is also a great spot to view the beaches south to Wollongong and is yet another spectacular lookout spot.

      15 minutes here · Admission included

    7. Royal National Park

      At this point we make our way to the Forest Track in the Royal National Park and walk through a luscious rainforest. Large hanging roots, birds nest and staghorn ferns, cedar trees and palms are a real treat. We may even get lucky and come across a lyre bird! As our tours are flexible you can choose to replace the rainforest walk with a coastal walk to Wedding Cake Rock. Both take around the same time (90 minutes) so either walk does not throw out our busy agenda.

      90 minutes here

    8. Symbio Wildlife Park

      We can either do the previously mentioned rainforest walk or instead visit Symbio Wildlife Park. This is a flexible private tour so you get choices! Symbio has an expansive area where kangaroos and wallabies roam free. Other native animals include koalas, echidnas, Tasmanian devils, wombats, dingoes, wedge tailed eagles and numerous native birds including the delightful Gouldian Finch. Non native animals located at Symbio include cheetahs, loveable meerkats, red pandas and ring tailed lemurs. You can nominate either of these choices on the day if you cant decide now.

    South Coast and Royal National Park Tour

    I booked two tours with Greg as a solo traveller. I booked onto the Royal National Park tour initially and Greg was super helpful in planning the itinerary for the day, not only ensuring we fitted in the walk to Eagle Rock but also making sure we saw several other points throughout the afternoon. The walk was taken at my own pace and Greg provided information on the surroundings and the history. Greg found a nice spot for us to have lunch and prepared this in front of me, which was a lovely feature not had on other tours. The second tour I booked was the South Coast tour, there is a lot of driving for this tour due to the distance from Sydney, however, Greg broke this up with a couple of stops before arriving at the Kiama Blowholes. We weren't blessed with good weather on this day unfortunately so our itinerary needed to be flexible, Greg suggested other ideas to ensure that we didn't waste any of the day and we got the most out of the Blowholes and cliffs. We had lunch overlooking a beach which was lovely! Greg took photos on both tours which was also a highlight, they came out much better than some of the ones on my phone and also meant that I could take in the scenery more. From the initial enquiry all the way through to both tours being complete, Greg was extremely helpful, being honest with what was manageable within each day tour and what extras we could include. Greg has a wealth of knowledge relevant to both tours and was great company! I am extremely happy that I booked with Sydney Nimble Tours and these were two of the highlights for my time in Sydney! I would highly recommend Greg and Sydney Nimble Tours if looking to do either of these activities.

    Response from the operator: Wow Amy that is one comprehensive review! Thank you for the effort and making the time to do this. Many thanks and regards, Greg

    Private tour of Kiama Blowholes, Sea Cliff Bridge and Wattamolla: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sydney.

    How much does Private tour of Kiama Blowholes, Sea Cliff Bridge and Wattamolla cost?

    +

    Prices start at $445 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Sydney usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Private tour of Kiama Blowholes, Sea Cliff Bridge and Wattamolla take?

    +

    Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Sydney is not rushed.

    Is Private tour of Kiama Blowholes, Sea Cliff Bridge and Wattamolla worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Sydney, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private tour of Kiama Blowholes, Sea Cliff Bridge and Wattamolla?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Private tour of Kiama Blowholes, Sea Cliff Bridge and Wattamolla suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private tour of Kiama Blowholes, Sea Cliff Bridge and Wattamolla?

    +

    Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Sydney can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Sydney and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private tour of Kiama Blowholes, Sea Cliff Bridge and Wattamolla start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Sydney within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Sydney?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Sydney experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include WILD Wombat and Kangaroo Day Tour, All Inclusive, Chef-Led Hunter Valley Gourmet Food and Wine Day Tour from Sydney, Ultimate Sydney Walking Tour (Small-Group, Drink Included). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Sydney?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Sydney?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
