As an immigrant to Sydney, I learned where the best spots were to entertain two active and growing sons. Soon, I found pristine beaches, parks and picnic spots far from the hustle and bustle of the city. The secret spots - the hidden gems.
My love and enthusiasm for Sydney inspired me to launch my own company, Exclusive East Tours.
It is my intention to show those visiting Sydney, hangouts loved and frequented by locals and connect you to my city.
I'm looking forward to meeting you and hope you have fun and enjoy what is enthusiastically on offer.
Let's live like a local together!
Exclusive East Tours offers bespoke experiences in the heart of Sydney's East. Enjoy the unmatched natural beauty, real estate, and Indigenous & Colonial History that this unique area has to offer.
With Jenny, you'll explore the spots where the 'buses don't go', and live like a local.
After meeting at the Rose Bay Wharf we make our way to the gems of Sydney's East. We'll drive through fabulous real estate towards hidden secret beaches along the Harbour foreshore, whilst getting the best views of Sydney's Harbour across to the Opera House and Bridge. We'll head past iconic Bondi Beach filled with eclectic hipster charm, whilst stopping at some local sights on the way before dropping you off at a local stop to continue your day trip. We are happy to make restaurant suggestions and advise "things to do" for the remainder of your day. My aim is to give you a feel of the eastern suburbs area and I'm happy to improvise as we go, according to your interests.
See our choice of the Top Ten Harbour Beaches on this tour, whilst pointing out some geographical and historical sights en route.
You will also be able to view the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge.

"What a wonderful suprise "
"Having visited a few times in the past we thought Sydney had nothing new to offer. However, after meeting Jenny
and seeing the sights she showed us we learnt a lot. Jenny is knowledgeable, entertaining and a morning with her is a must. Thank you Jenny."

Jenny provided a long morning of fun in the sun! A wealth of knowledge, Jenny was a great guide around the Eastern Suburbs and some really wonderful beaches. We went for some walks and a couple swims and it was a great way to get introduced to the area. I was so happy I joined Jenny’s tour on the beginning of my trip because I returned to my two favorite beaches later during my stay. I have already recommended Jenny’s tour and highly recommend it if you are looking for an intimate experience, catered to your needs and interests. Perfect for couples, small families and solo travelers. Thanks Jenny!

I'm so glad that I joined this pleasant experience. It would be the highlight of my trip! The places that Jenny has shown were beautiful and it would be nice for those who like to see the Opera house and Harbour Bridge from another side, besides the tourist spots. Which I agreed with many others who joined the experience that it would be difficult and take so long to find and explore those places that she has shown. if I'm back again, I would like to go again! Thanks Jenny!

What an amazing harbour view trip. Jenny is very kind to share her experience and also introduced my twin boys the curious things and places they love. After this activity, definitely we love the nature of Sydney more.

It was a fantastic tour. It open my eyes to there is more to Sydney than the iconic Sydney Opera House. The crystal clear water and scenic beaches makes me want to go back for more. Two thumbs up to Jenny who was really thoughtful, knowledgeable and helpful. She even offered to help me in the future should I need more information on places to visit in Sydney. Definitely recommended tour.

I booked this experience with four of my colleagues who were visiting from overseas. We had an amazing time with Jenny! I live in Sydney, and Jenny still managed to show me some Harbour beaches that I hadn’t discovered before - real hidden away gems. The great thing about this experience is that you get to see more in less time because Jenny drives between the different beaches while guests are able to walk the connected trails. Finishing in Bondi is great, because you can walk the coastal walk to Coogee, if you’ve still got energy. Local snacks in the car was an added treat.

Jenny was very knowledgeable about the in outs of the area. Beaches, buildings, parks and history. She helped me personally on area eats and what to see and do in area also. She was so genuine and sincere in helping me being that I was on my own for the 1st time in Sydney.

What an insanely beautiful coastline! Don’t miss this walk with Jenny. Incredibly organized; a perfect mix of beach walks, cliff top vistas and photo ops. Jenny shared charming stories of her life along the harbor and raising her children in Sydney. Thank you Jenny, a perfect way to spend the afternoon!

Jenny is an amazing Host, she is so passionate and knowledgeable about the area she was showing us. She is extremely friendly and funny too.

We saw incredible panoramas and some of the best hidden beaches where access are granted only to people that really know the place. Thank you very much for being so welcoming and nice with us. Really high recommended!

Jenny was absolutely lovely. Right from the get-go, she extended that true-blue Australian hospitality. I feel like I've made a friend in Sydney! She even offered to give itinerary suggestions, and said to contact her anytime, which was a nice gesture especially for a solo traveller. The tour itself was very fun, and enriching. I never was a beach person but even I was so in awe of the beautiful, clear beaches. You will get to see many hidden gems as well. Thank you Jenny for being my model (inside joke), and I hope to see you again soon in Sydney!

You will see SO MUCH of the beautiful Sydney Harbor by spending the afternoon with Jenny. She is an incredible host: kind, thoughtful, knowledgeable, and with a plan to bring you to places that would be difficult to access on your own.

Jenny is a TREASURE. Her experience is a well-designed tour of all the secret beaches in Sydney. Without her guidance there is no way we would have found all of those beaches, many of them were well off the beaten path. Highly recommend to solo-travellers to families alike. Thanks, Jenny!

You really get to see amazing places that you can't find in the internet. Jenny was amazing, she gave me cookies, nuts and hot chocolate because it was too cold. I fell in love with all these places and she also gave me directions for the rest of my plans for the day. Highly recommended.

It is an awesome tour!!! You see so many beautiful places and hidden gems. Jenny is very nice and a true local guide. Very personal and she knows a lot about Sydney. I would highly recommend it, if you want to see the best beaches and views in Sydney.

Jenny is such a lovely guide! She is so much fun and has extensive knowledge of the neighbourhood and surrounds. The beaches are secluded and gorgeous and the views are stunning. It’s well worth seeing Sydney from this perspective.

From the beginning, I felt that I had made the right decision. Jenny, is a very thoughtful and well-informed guide which made the morning pass by enjoyably. The group itself is limited to three people which is very fortunate and allows one to get to know the other members naturally and to be able to decide things together. This is especially nice since it is easy to listen and ask questions, as well as express one’s preferences or desires. Although our group didn’t go swimming, the opportunities to do so are available and, in hindsight, recommended. One beach has lovely pristine aqua marine water as well as a convenient place to change. Last, Jenny is thoughtful and sincere, providing cold bottled water, tasty cookies and graciously treating us to coffee if we wished. As a solo traveller, her kindness and genuine desire to help you enjoy both the interesting beaches, views and landscapes not readily seen, and your time in Sydney are important elements of this tour. Overall, personally, this was a very enjoyable and informative tour revealing various areas and their interesting histories.

It was absolutely an amazing tour. I was overwhelmed by the scenery, the colour of water, and the nature. Jenny showed a variety of the private beach, which is fantastic but very quiet and peaceful. I could see that she tried her best to fill the tour with unforgettable memories. Good and prompt communication is a plus. I really recommend this tour to people who would like to enjoy the great nature with some peace in Sydney. Thank you Jenny for your guiding and taking great photos during the tour.

Jenny is a fabulous host! She is so knowledgeable about the history, culture and everything Aussie that I got a good dose of all things Aussie in half a day. Luckily for me, the weather was absolutely gorgeous and I was the only one on the tour so it felt quite special to be driven around the stunning east side of the city.. The locations Jenny picked were priceless and truly some of those would have been hard to find or get to without this tour. Highly recommend it, if you want a glimpse into the non-touristy hidden gems of the east side. She also recommended some nice places to eat after the tour and tips of what next to do. Overall a fabulous trip and a morning well spent!
