Private Tour - Nature, Culture and History, Immersion in North Head, including CBD pickup and ferry.
Join me for an immersive walk from Manly Wharf up to North Head in Sydney Harbour National Park. Not only is North Head one of the best locations to get that iconic Sydney Harbour photo (Including Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge), it is also an area of immense history. From the traditional healers of the Gayamagel People to the early colonists, a Quarantine Station, and North Fort a military complex. There is plenty to learn on this walk.
Today, the area is home to the Long-nosed Bandicoot, Flying Fox, Powerful and Barking Owls, and the Eastern Bentwing and Large eared Pied Bats. There are other 23 reptile species, 144 birds, and 430 different plants. We will learn about some of these as we walk.
As one of the best locations to view Humpback Whales during the season, there are plenty of memories to be built.
As we descend we will pass a beautiful look out of the Pacific Ocean, walk down into Shelly Beach (home of some of the best snorkeling and diving in Sydney), take in the stunning coastal walk to Manly, and head back to Manly Wharf.
There will be plenty of opportunities for photos along the way and an opportunity to stop for takeaway refreshments at the Bella Vista Cafe or the Boatshed in Shelley Beach.
This walk is approximately 7.5kms plus a short walk from CBD hotel to Circular Quay Ferry Terminal and requires a medium/good level of fitness.
Tailored to include your guide meeting you at a CBD hotel and returning you to the CBD. The price includes return ferry tickets.
There will be time to stop for lunch at North Head (not included in price).
