About

At Cocky Guides, they specialise in providing unique, multi-sensory adventures for the blind and low-vision community. Their number one priority is to make sure you feel comfortable, supported and included in different destinations.

Each adventure is designed for travellers who are active and competent with mobility using either a cane, a guide dog or a companion as a sighted guide. Their trip leaders provide vocal instruction to assist in navigating between one and six travellers in areas they know well. For technical navigation, like stairs or narrow environments, they may travel one at a time with their trip leader, providing one-on-one assistance when requested.

When it comes to delivering high-quality, safe and affordable sensory experiences, no other guides come close. Bursting with local insight and infectious enthusiasm, their friendly and experienced team will provide you with everything you've always wanted on a trip.

Care and passion for travellers, the community and the environment. Capable guides who deliver memorable and fun experiences. Creative knowledge-sharing and multi-sensory storytelling. Collaborative approaches to trip design and support.

Blue Mountains Sunset Without Crowds

Avoid the crowds on this relaxed exploration of the Blue Mountains! Explore the changing moods of the Blue Mountains in the late afternoon sunlight and capture the sunset over the rugged ranges and valleys. This tour is designed to avoid the peak hour traffic of Sydney with later departures and returns to maximise our time enjoying the stunning scenery and native forests. With a late morning departure, you will have extra time to explore Sydney before joining this tour to one of the world's most spectacular World Heritage-listed national parks. Located 50 kilometres from Sydney CBD, the Blue Mountains is home to a diverse range of flora and fauna, and is rich in Aboriginal heritage. A rugged mountain range of unique sandstone formations and steep cliffs, the Blue Mountains is known for its dramatic landscape. Surrounded by giant eucalyptus trees which creates a blue haze that lives up to its name.
