Fantastic 5.0
This is a review of the tour with our guide, Moses! We started very early in the morning, so I was quite tired, but after a brief tour preview, Moses drove safely, and I was able to comfortably sleep all the way to our destination. At the first zoo, since we were a group, we could pet the koalas for free. We also received one portion of food per person, and there was so much that I couldn't even give half of it away. It was wonderful to be able to freely pet and feed the kangaroos, as they were in an open-range enclosure. During the winery tour, we got to taste delicious wines. For adults, they provided chicken burgers, and for the children, they arranged a customized meal of pizza and juice. Since the weather was excellent, the dolphin tour was also very satisfying. We were lucky enough to see dolphins swimming alongside our yacht for about 10 minutes, right next to us. For the final activity, sandboarding, I was quite tired and only managed to go down four times, but it was still very enjoyable. Before each tour, Moses explained the precautions and provided helpful tips. During the remaining travel time, he also shared information about Sydney tours, history, gift shops for independent travelers, and recommended restaurants. If I were to take another tour on a different day, I would love to do it with Moses again. Thanks to this trip, I was very happy! I took many photos, but it's a shame there's a limit to how many I can attach.

I liked that we were a small group of 7 in the tour and pacing was just about right. Travel time from Sydney to Port Stephens is 3-4hrs. Be prepared to to spend most of your time on the road. The driver/guide was good. and we also had a Japanese guide. Water and lunch are already included. Overall, was fun experience

The tour was soooo good! Our guide was super friendly, shared lots of fun stories throughout the day, and even helped us take photos everywhere we went. The camel riding and sandboarding were definitely the highlights of the trip and one of the best experiences you can have around Sydney. 4 Pines was also great! Lunch was included, and I chose the steak—it was really good. The wine tasting was amazing too. I ended up trying so many different wines that I got a little tipsy lol. Thanks to Shirley, our tour guide!

This tour is truly the best value for money, and I didn't regret spending any money or time on it. If you come to Sydney, I highly recommend it 🥰 ⭐️Course: Dolphin Tour -> Lunch (Bibimbap) -> Desert Sliding Board -> Featherdale Wildlife Park!! ⭐️Guide: They are very friendly and take care of everyone without being intrusive. The Korean-tailored guide is the best. 🐬Dolphin Tour: I was so happy as soon as I saw the dolphins 🥺 🍚Lunch: Bibimbap is so delicious…. 🏜️Desert Boarding: The desert is really huge and vast. The board is so exciting and fun that I wanted to ride it 5 times, but I only rode it twice!!! 🐨🦘Wildlife Park: I've been to other zoos, but there was no place where I could interact with koalas and kangaroos like this. Here, I was able to feed the animals and touch their butts? for over an hour, so it was a very, very happy tour. I came with my family, and all 4 out of 4 people gave it a perfect score of 5 out of 5! If you want to see nature during one of your travel days, I highly recommend this tour!

Our tour guide and driver, Gordon, was incredibly professional. Along the way, he introduced us to the architecture of the cities we passed through and provided fascinating geographical and historical explanations about the areas we visited. His driving was very smooth, and he was always punctual. The tour itself was also very enjoyable. I brought my family along to experience dolphin watching (we succeeded!), and we all had a blast sandboarding. Everyone loved it, highly recommended! ✌️

I went on the Unlimited Australia Tour and the Nelson Bay Port Stephens Oakvale Wildlife Park Tour~ I really liked the relaxing atmosphere and local feel of Nelson Bay, and above all, the breathtaking natural scenery and fine sand of Port Stephens, and they took great pictures, so it was really fun. The animals at the zoo were so cute that I lost track of time! Take a look at the koala photos, I could even touch them.

What to know before visiting Port Stephens

Quick Port Stephens snapshot for first-time visitors

Port Stephens is a laid-back coastal escape where tours, outdoor & sports activities and wildlife experiences drive most bookings through the year. Demand peaks in May and falls to a low in October, so the rhythm of local activity ranges from busy autumn weekends to much quieter spring days.

Best times to visit and how prices move

Klook booking data show May is the busiest month while October typically sees the lowest demand. Prices rise and fall across the year: they hit their highest levels around January and drift down to much lower typical rates in March, with a number of low-price months clustered through late winter and early spring. If you want smaller crowds and lower prices, plan for the quieter shoulder months around October through March; if you prefer the peak-season atmosphere and more tour options, aim for May when demand is highest. Note that demand and prices don’t always move in lockstep — some months with lower demand still show mid-range prices, so check both when you plan.

Tips for travellers from Hong Kong

Most travellers from Hong Kong book activities a few days ahead, with typical bookings around three days and early planners reserving up to about 16 days before travel. For a short trip this makes Port Stephens easy to visit at short notice, but consider locking in popular tours a couple of weeks out if you travel in May. Use Klook to compare tour and outdoor‑activity options and secure spots without long lead times.
