Stephen Arnerich

Guide profile:

Gidday from Sydney, Australia! I spent 4 years living and travelling overseas and have visited over 40 countries. I worked as a white water rafting guide in Colorado and as a cocktail barman at the Langham Hilton in London. Favourite places are Bolivia, Peru, Norway, Vietnam and Laos.

I started work within the Sydney tourism industry in November 1996, cutting my teeth on three-day camping adventures and day trips to the amazing Blue Mountains, just west of Sydney.

I have also introduced many tourists to the scenic dolphin/whale watching cruises in Port Stephens and lead informed tours through the beautiful wine country of the Hunter Valley.

Like most tour guides, I love dealing with international visitors and can speak some very basic Japanese, German, Spanish, and a smattering of Dutch. I have extensive knowledge of Australian history, Aboriginal culture (The photo is of me playng the didgeridoo, an Aboriginal musical instrument), Sydney city, Australian wildlife, (just ask me for my kookaburra impersonation!) the Hunter Valley, and the Blue Mountains.

To date I have taken over 20 000 tourists on day trips to both the Blue Mountains, the Hunter Valley and around the best city in the world - SYDNEY!!!

I work with the Australian company "Randstad" - www.randstad.com.au - we booked Stephen for a Sydney city sightseeing tour for 3 visiting Japenese clients with excellent results.

The overall agenda organised was very good and everything went very smoothly (as our visitors emailed me to thank me). A top class tour guide for sure!

If ever in Sydney with a day or two to spare, a trip to the World Heritage listed Blue Mountains of Australia is a must. Particularly if you take the trip with Stephen Arnerich. We joined a small eclectic international group led by Stephen- an exceptional guide with a wealth of local knowledge and exceedingly entertaining. Throughout the day he demonstrated boomerang throwing techniques, played a didgeridoo (no small task), imitated indigenous animal sounds and served afternoon tea at the base
