FAQ

Do you visit other places outside of the tours listed on the website?

Yes we do. Other places that are further out may however require two days, one night.

Places that my be of interest for a two day tour include but are not necessarily limited to: Mudgee, Capertee Valley, Jervis Bay, Canberra, Newcastle and Port Macquarie.

If interested get in touch.

Do I get a discount if I book more than one tour?

Yes you do!

We admire brilliant decision making and will reward your choice with a 5% discount on both tours, if you book 2 tours.

Get in touch and let us know which tours you are interested in and we will send a link that allows you to book two tours at the reduced price.

Same 5% off each tour if you book 3 tours applies. We have to be consistent!

What is Sydney Nimble’s cancellation policy?

If cancellation occurs 24 hours before the start of he tour the full amount of the tour price will be refunded.

In the event of bad weather what are the options?

We will get in touch and make our best efforts to reschedule the tour with you.

Alternatively the full tour fee will be refunded.

Subject to you being happy the tour can be changed so that the day is more in the nature of a bespoke tour. In this event art galleries, museums and other indoor places can be visited.

Is it ok to bring babies and children?

Yes we do take infants, children and even teenagers!

We can provide appropriate car seating or use your car seat if you prefer.

What practices does Sydney Nimble have for dealing with Covid?

We have the following COVID-19 health and safety measures:

  1. Guides required to regularly wash hands

  2. Transportation vehicle is thoroughly cleaned before the trip

Our tours are for your group only (1-6) so you do not have to worry about sharing the vehicle with other travellers.

Can we pick you up from the airport and commence a tour or do an airport drop off after a tour?

Yes this is generally available provided the time is not too extreme - very early morning or late night might prove difficult. Get in touch and we can confirm whether this is a viable option.

What happens if the national parks are closed?

If there is a total fire ban national parks may be closed. Once in a while a particular national park will be closed for pest control.

In this event we will either move the day subject to you being able to do it or we will offer an alternative tour.

There’s lots to see and do in Sydney and we can work out an alternative itinerary - we’ve had to do this several times over the summer and all our clients have been happy with their day. Greg has extensive knowledge of Sydney and all of the tours - feel free to email with any questions.

If you cant move the day or do not want to do an alternative tour we will provide a full refund of the cost of the tour.
