Previously Nick has taken trike rides with us. He absolutely loves being on the trike so his brother Ben organised the scenic Sydney trike tour. Nick has cerebral palsy and the trike is perfect for him. It is safe and stable with seatbelts for each passenger. Nick can sit in the middle behind the rider and hold on.

Kirribilli Loop

Craig picked Nick and his carer up from Kirribilli. Firstly, they enjoyed the beautiful view across Sydney Harbour to the Opera House. To the right, there is a wonderful view of the side and underneath of the Harbour Bridge.

Continuing on what we call “the Kirribilli Loop”, they rode under the north end of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Similarly, this gives a very different perspective to the bridge from any other. They rode past the Luna Park entrance road and past North Sydney Olympic Pool before heading over the bridge.

Kings Cross

Next, they rode through Woolloomooloo and past the famous Harry Cafe De Wheels. Then they rode up into the infamous red light district of Kings Cross. Kings Cross is no longer what it was in its heyday, but it is still interesting to ride through.

South Head Peninsula

After that, they rode through the eastern suburbs of Rushcutters Bay and Vaucluse. Then they rode up the South Head Peninsula to the famous Watsons Bay, home to Doyles a famous fish and chips shop.

Near Watsons Bay is “The Gap”. It has wonderful views out to the Tasman Sea. Unfortunately, it is also called Suicide Gap as many people take their own lives here.

Bondi Beach and other eastern Sydney beaches

Then they rode back down the peninsula to the iconic Bondi Beach. They stopped for photos and to check out the view. Continuing on, they rode past the eastern beaches of Tamara and Bronte. This really was a scenic Sydney trike tour!

There was time to ride though the lovely Centennial Park. However, the 1.5 hours was just about up. So Craig rode them back over the Sydney Harbour Bridge and dropped them back at Jeffrey Street Wharf, Kirribilli.

In conclusion, the scenic Sydney trike tour was a huge success, Nick had a smile on his face the whole ride. https://www.trolltours.com.au/product/design-your-own-ride/

The 60th birthday Harley tour was a huge success. We organised Marian’s gift voucher with some of her family. They knew she would be coming to Australia from the UK for a holiday.

However, we could tell she was a bit hesitant about the Harley tour. For instance, Marian kept asking questions and seemed to be trying to put off the Harley tour. No way!

We reckon her brother and family (who bought the Gift Voucher) and her husband Spud, made her do it. Well, they had to as it was her 60th birthday Harley tour present!

Phil the Harley rider wrote – “Marian is out from the UK with her husband Spud to visit her brother. She was a bit hesitant at first but in the end she loved it – it “exceeded all expectations” were her words”.

Phil picked Marian up from The Rocks, in Sydney. As often happens, the rider and the passenger(s) discuss the route. This time, they both decided the 3 Bridges tour was the ideal ride to do.

Sydney Harbour Bridge

So, after picking Marian up at the Rocks, he rode over the Sydney Harbour Bridge. As we keep telling everyone – look up! Without a roof blocking your view, you will really be able to appreciate the arches.

Jeffrey Street Wharf, Kirribilli

After that, they stopped at Jeffrey Street Wharf, Kirribilli on the north side of the Harbour Bridge. It has wonderful views across Sydney Harbour towards the Sydney Opera House and the CBD. A view we never tire of. In addition, it also has an up-close view of the side and underneath of the bridge.

They continued on through North Sydney and Crows Nest before joining River Road. It is a fun road to ride on. River Road leads to Burns Bay Road which, in turn, leads to another bridge but not one of the main three.

Fig Tree Bridge, Tarban Creek Bridge, Gladesville Bridge

It is the Fig Tree Bridge which opened in 1963 and spans the Lane Cove River. After that bridge, they continued on and crossed the second of the bridges Tarban Creek Bridge. This spans Tarban Creek. Then they got to bridge #2 of the main 3 Bridges, the Gladesville Bridge. It has wonderful views along Parramatta River towards the Harbour Bridge and the city.

This bridge is on the main arterial thoroughfare of Victoria Road. They travelled along for a short while before turning off into the inner west suburb of Drummoyne. Following the shoreline of Iron Cove, which is part of the Parramatta River, they saw some lovely water views. It is part of the 7 km long Bay Run.

ANZAC Bridge

They continued on riding onto the incredible ANZAC Bridge – bridge #3. Similarly, it is also great to see without a roof over your head inhibiting the view. Riding into the city is always interesting, However, time was up. Phil dropped Marian back at The Rocks. She thought the 60th birthday Harley tour was fantastic, a great way to see parts of the city only the locals know about.

In conclusion, 60th birthday Harley tour was a huge success, another “best birthday present ever”.

Will definitely be recommending this trip to any one visiting Sydney.

Thank-you so much for all your friendly help with the booking.

Stacy organised the trike tour Eastern Sydney for his son. Dallas thought it was a great adventure and loved every moment of it.

Woolloomooloo

Craig picked them up from their hotel at the Rocks. Firstly, they rode through the city to Woolloomooloo. This was a slum but has been gentrified – anywhere next to the water is fashionable.

Infamous Kings Cross

Next they rode past the iconic Harry Cafe De Wheels and up into the infamous Kings Cross. It is still very interesting to ride through, with many things to look at. However, it is just not as risque as it was in its heyday.

From Kings Cross they travelled through the posh suburbs of Double Bay and Rose Bay. Some of the gothic architecture dates back to the 1870s. It is very unique and not seen anywhere else in Sydney.

Watsons Bay

They continued on into Watsons Bay. It is home to Doyles restaurant which is famous for its fish and chips. Also, have a look into the famous or you could say infamous ‘The Gap’.

Bondi Beach

After that, they rode to the very famous Bondi Beach and stopped for a look at the lovely view. Similarly, they rode south along the eastern Sydney beaches of Tamarama and Bronte.

Centennial Park

However, the 1.5 hours was nearly up so they rode through the huge but lovely Centennial Park. Craig then rode through the city before returning to their hotel. In conclusion, the trike tour Eastern Sydney was a fabulous experience and a very memorable adventure.

Woolloomooloo is home to the Finger Wharf, known for its remarkable size. It is 400 metres (1,310 ft) long and 63 m (210 ft) wide and stands on 3,600 piles.

The Sydney Harbour Trust built the Finger Wharf, or Woolloomooloo Wharf, between 1911 and 1915 with the charter to bring order to Sydney Harbour‘s foreshore facilities.

Ellie organised the trike tour Sydney beaches for her friend Karen. Karen has been living in Sydney for a while, but she is heading back to Ireland soon. Ellie wanted to give her an experience to remember. Ellie wanted Karen to revisit all her favourite places in Sydney before she left.

Favourite places in Sydney

Craig picked them up from the eastern suburbs. Firstly, they rode past Centennial Park and though Edgecliff, in the east. Secondly, they rode to Mrs Macquarie’s Point, where there are wonderful views west across Sydney Harbour. They look towards the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

Next, they rode over the Sydney Harbour Bridge. It is a view and an experience we never tire of. However, make sure you look up to see the arches in all their glory. They are wonderful to look at without the roof of a car blocking the view.

First stop was Jeffrey Street Wharf. Of course they had to stop for photos and to admire the gorgeous view. It is a spectacular view across Sydney Harbour towards the Opera House and the CBD. There is also an interesting perspective to the Harbour Bridge.

The Kirribilli Loop

They continued on, doing what we call “The Kirribilli Loop”. This takes us under the north end of the bridge. Pass by the entrance to Luna Park and the North Sydney Olympic Pool.

After that they rode through the northern suburbs of Neutral Bay and Mosman. Continuing down Military road, they rode past the lovely and well known Balmoral Beach. People from all over Sydney come here for a swim and a bite to eat.

Middle Harbour

Next, they rode over the Spit Bridge with it’s lovely views of Middle Harbour. Up into Seaforth for a beautiful view of Middle Harbour. After that they rode to Tania Park, part of Dobroyd Head. Another view we never tire of. We have a fabulous look at Sydney Heads – both north and south!

Eastern suburbs

However, the 2.5 hours was almost up. Craig returned them to Coogee via the beautiful Clontarf. Back across the Bridge and through the eastern suburbs of Woolloomooloo, Kings Cross, Double Bay, Rose Bay, Bondi, Tamara and Bronte.

A fun and memorable experience. In conclusion, this trike tour Sydney beaches was a huge success.

Troll’s grandfather worked on the gang building the Spit Bridge. Therefore, the Spit Bridge has history. It is a bascule bridge opened in 1958 over Middle Harbour. The bridge opens at set times to allow yachts with high masts to pass. The Spit is the site of the Middle Harbour Yacht Club and a marina.

Susan organised the surprise trike ride Sydney for Zamry. We love surprises and are great at organising them! Craig picked Susan and Zamry up from their hotel in the city. They did one of our most popular tours – The Harbour Bridge Ride.

The Rocks

After that, they continued on though the Rocks then up and across the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Next, they rode through North Sydney and down to Jeffrey Street Wharf. Similarly, they stopped once more for some photos.

Next, they rode under the northern section of the Sydney Harbour Bridge so they could look up and see the underneath.

After that, they rode back across the Bridge onto the final destination being the Sydney Tower Eye. Therefore, they could continue exploring Sydney.

Kirribilli is one of Australia’s older suburbs, with the first land grants in the area being granted by the colonial government during the 1790s. A scattering of Georgian and Gothic-revival houses and mansions were built in the 1830s, ’40s and ’50s. Most of these have since been razed. ?
