Great day of sightseeing with our private guide Greg. It was raining some during the day but that didn't stop us from visiting the parks and animals at the Symbio park. We didn't get to have the picnic lunch but had a great lunch at the Imperial Hotel. The best part was feeding the Wallabies and Kangaroos at Symbio. They were so cute holding on to my hands not letting me go so they could eat. Best part of the day.

Greg is very happy to change the itinerary. We did the hike to Eagle Rock which took a few hours. Highly recommended for the views! This is a medium hike which can take 2.5 hours.We did four wildlife parks on our cruise, so we're looking for something else. We suggested the kayaking but the place in Royal National Park was closed due to high winds. He suggested the glow worms at the abandoned train tunnel. Amazing experience. It was like looking at the stars while listening to the birds outside. Something out of a Hitchcock movie. The lunch was excellant. Nothing like having a homemade lunch, on a picnic table, in the forest with birds eyeing you after the hike. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a truly memorable adventure.

It was a wonderful experience, where we enjoyed incredible landscapes.
Our guide (Greg) picked us up directly at our hotel, and planned the day according to what we wanted to see/do. We're a family of 4 adults (parents + 2 grown up daughters)
We started by a ~2h30 walk (including all the photo breaks) on the coastal track, heading up to the wedding cake rock. Greg provided us some nice information on the geology, birds and plants around us.
After this nice walk we had a great healthy lunch that Greg prepared for us.
We then went to the Wattamolla falls, and to the Symbio Wildlife park. Greg managed to bring us there just at the time where the feeding of the koalas happened. The animal keeper also provided nice information.
We fed the kangaroos, the wallabies and the emus.
At the park closure we went to the Sea Cliff Bridge, and to the Wombarra beach. It was right at sunset, and we got really nice pictures.
Greg also took some family pictures and sent them just the day after.
Since going to the Royal National Park via public transport is close from the nightmare, that was a great opportunity for is to visit it. We highly recommend it!
