What's our story then?


Sydney Night Cat Tours was conceived by Kiwi, Stephen Arnerich, in June 2002. Steve started work within the tourism industry in November 1996, cutting his teeth on three-day camping adventures and day trips to the amazing Blue Mountains, just west of Sydney.

Steve has 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, he loves dealing with international visitors and speaks conversational Japanese, German, Spanish, and a smattering of Dutch. He has extensive knowledge of Australian history, Aboriginal culture, Sydney city, Australian wildlife, (just ask me for my kookaburra impersonation!) the Hunter Valley, and the Blue Mountains.

After spending many years hearing tourists requesting where the "real Aussies" were to be found in Sydney, Steve thought that a a tour was needed to get visitors away from the well-worn tourist routes like Darling Harbour and The Rocks, and show them where the locals like to go around town.

Sydney Night Cat Tours was officially launched in July 2003 and has had great success with interstate and international visitors alike. Night Cat won an Australian Achievers Award in 2004 for excellence in customer service - a great feat in a competitive market!

The name "Night Cat" is meant to convey an alley cat prowling around the back streets at night, peering behind the scenes and finding where the action is at. Steve found that in a lot of countries he visited, if you just go around the corner from the main street you will find a whole new world waiting there for you! On Night Cat you will hear stories of Razor gangs, villains, and find out where the best places are to go for beer, shopping, cinemas and great food!

To date Steve has taken over 18 000 tourists on day trips to both the Blue Mountains, the Hunter Valley and around the best city in the world - SYDNEY!!!
