The beaches up and down the Pacific coastline might make the headlines...
But you’ll find much to explore too in New South Wales’ inland mountains, hinterland and on to the outback. Big cities, surf towns, wineries and wilderness. Soak up the sun, surf and soul of Sydney, head north to the bohemian Byron Bay, and bushwalk to waterfalls in the Blue Mountains, one of Australia's most stunning peak ranges.

Sydney
The glittering jewel in the east coast's crown. You’ve got the big-ticket Opera House and Harbour Bridge, and iconic beaches on the walk from Bondi to Bronte.
Byron Bay
This laid-back surf paradise is all about the beachside and wellness vibes. Join in yoga sessions and head to the hinterland to taste fresh produce straight from the farms. View our Byron Bay tours.
Blue Mountains
Hidden waterfalls, sweeping gorges, towering gum trees, cliffs, canyons, and small towns with their own personalities cover this dramatic mountain landscape. View our Blue Mountains tours.
Jervis Bay
Long stretches of white sand, sparkling waters, and one of the best places on the east coast to spot dolphins and whales.

I would highly recommended the Sydney to Cairns Adventure that Intrepid Tours offers especially if you are a person who likes to learn about history and nature. We visited several coastal beaches. For example, they coordinated kayaking in Byron Bay, whale watching in Hervey Bay, snorkeling via Ocean Rafting in the Great Barrier Reef. On three different occasions we learned about Aboriginal history from the Eora Nation in Sydney, the Gumbaynggirr at Red Rock in Coffs Harbour, and lastly Mungalla Station about the Nywaigi people. On top of all this, there were several hiking opportunities to see firsthand the beauty and diversity of Australia. Lastly a great opportunity to meet people from all over the world as well as having a great tour guide named, Taimi.

A brilliant trip that shows you lots of places on the East coast.
Taimi was an excellent tour guide and shared her knowledge of the country throughout the trip.
Activities are suited to all abilities - a good mix of sightseeing, walking and sporting.
There are long drives to get to each location and not many meals included.
Would definitely recommend this trip.

This is a great way to explore the East Coast of Australia in a short period of time. We visited lots of amazing tourist sites as well as smaller but beautiful towns. We saw lots of wildlife (kangaroos, koalas, whales, crocodiles and a platypus). Our group was great and we have made new friends from this tour. Our guides Taimi and Brendan were brilliant, very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and fun. I would wholeheartedly recommend this tour to anyone considering it.
