What you'll see and do
Local Travel Planner
The experience begins when a friendly guide greets you at the meeting point. You'll be part of a small group of no more than 11 travellers aboard a comfortable minibus that takes you south out of the city along the beaches of Botany Bay and through the Royal National Park. First stop is Bald Hill Lookout, a popular launch site for hang gliders and para gliders, which affords sweeping views of the Illawarra coastline and the famous Sea Cliff Bridge. After the break it's just a few minutes drive to the family-run Symbio Wildlife Park which is active in koala conservation. Here you'll find out everything you ever wanted to know about these fascinating marsupials during a private koala experience with a keeper. Snap the ultimate selfie - just you and a koala. You’ll also be able to hand-feed kangaroos and wallabies and get up close to other native Australian wildlife. Next you'll meander along the Grand Pacific Drive traversing the Sea Cliff Bridge as it sweeps out over the ocean, well clear of the crumbling cliffs to which the old highway clung. You’ll continue to follow the scenic coastline to a golden beach where you’ll enjoy lunch in a café popular with locals with views out over the ocean. Bring your swimmers for a dip if the sun is out! In the afternoon you’ll head up through temperate rainforest into the Southern Highlands. An easy hike leads to viewpoints that take in the spectacular sandstone gorges and towering waterfalls of the Morton National Park. Finally, you’ll drive along country roads to a boutique winery to sample locally-produced, cool climate wine before returning to Sydney. Arrival back at Circular Quay is around 6:30pm.

Hands on Wildlife & Stunning Views
Nice to have early exclusive access to Symbio wildlife park, which was a highlight of our trip to have a close encounter with a koala, kangaroos and wallabies. Fantastic tour with Tony. He was knowledgeable, friendly, intelligent, kind and attentive. His calming presence made the tour relaxing and feel like a vacation. Learned extensively about the region, flora, birds, fascinating history snippets and current events. Tasty lunch ocean side was a nice touch, as were the picturesque stops/look out points. Impressive waterfall/mountain views, and relaxing wine tasting and nosh to wrap up the trip. Highly recommend, especially if Tony is guiding.

Unforgettable day trip south of Sydney
My wife and I had an incredible experience on the Wildlife, Waterfalls & Wine tour. From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized and offered the perfect mix of native Australian wildlife, stunning coastal and bushland views, and local wine tasting. The highlight for me was visiting the Symbio Wildlife Park and feeding the kangaroos. A special shout-out to our tour guide, Rohan, who truly made the trip exceptional! His knowledge of Sydney's history, geography, and wildlife was remarkable, and he kept us engaged and entertained throughout the day. Rohan went above and beyond to take us around the Bradman Oval (not in the official tour) after learning of my interest in cricket. Feeding the kangaroos and wallabies, getting up close with koalas, seeing the breathtaking waterfalls, and wrapping up the day at the winery made for a memorable experience. We couldn't have asked for a better day trip—highly recommended to anyone visiting the Sydney area!
Response from the operator: We're so pleased your day became such a memorable part of your visit. One of the things we love most is sharing places that have a personal connection for our guides, so it's wonderful to hear that the extra stop at Bradman Oval made the experience even more special. Thank you for your generous recommendation, and we hope Australia welcomes you back again one day. Cheers, from all of the team @WildlifeWaterfallsWine.com

Great day trip to the countryside
This was an amazing day trip—if you’re looking to get out of Sydney and see some of the Australian countryside this is a perfect chance. Steve was an incredible tour guide, telling us both about the places we were going but also sprinkling in experiences from his life (driving by creeks he played in as a kid, local places he spent time growing up, etc) that added to the trip and showed he really knew what he was talking about. The range of things we were able to see/experience in a day was a great value for the money and it was a stress-free way to check a bunch of boxes off my travel list.
Response from the operator: Hi, Some of the best travel experiences come from seeing a destination through the eyes of someone who calls it home, so we're thrilled that resonated with you. Thank you for choosing to spend the day exploring beyond Sydney with us. We hope those memories stay with you long after you've returned home. Cheers, from all of the team @WildlifeWaterfallsWine.com

Why this scores 92
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Wildlife, Waterfalls and Wine Day Tour from Sydney: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sydney.
How much does Wildlife, Waterfalls and Wine Day Tour from Sydney cost?
+
Prices start at $281 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 Wildlife, Waterfalls and Wine Day Tour from Sydney take?
+
Plan for about 11 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 Wildlife, Waterfalls and Wine Day Tour from Sydney worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 92 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 574 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Sydney, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule Wildlife, Waterfalls and Wine Day Tour from Sydney?
+
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 Wildlife, Waterfalls and Wine Day Tour from Sydney suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 11-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Wildlife, Waterfalls and Wine Day Tour from Sydney?
+
Around 201 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 11-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Wildlife, Waterfalls and Wine Day Tour from Sydney 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, Depart Syd: Blue Mountains Best All Inclusive with Local Guide, Blue Mountain Small Group Tour All Inclusive. 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.
