Out & About Day Tours offers residents living in Sydney, Penrith, the Lower Blue Mountains, the Central Coast and Canberra, the opportunity to travel on a range of unique and enchanting quality day tours.

The owners, Phillip & Karen Minnis, who operate the business from their base on the beautiful Southern Highlands of New South Wales, have been successfully operating day tours for over seven years. In that time, they have established a strong customer base, with many passengers travelling on a number of different day tours each year.

Currently, Out & About Day Tours operate between 15 and 20 unique and different day tour itineraries – ensuring that all clients have, on offer, at least one tour, from which to choose, each month. All of these tours are offered to residents living in Sydney, Penrith and the Lower Blue Mountains. A limited number of these day tours are also offered to residents living on the Central Coast and in the Canberra and Queanbeyan region.

Many of the day tours visit well-known craft and produce markets, factory outlets, fairs, festivals and events. A number of the tours include lovely lunches, river cruises, steam train rides, wine-tastings, as well as visits to well-known business outlets and tourist attractions.

Out & About Day Tours take pride in the fact that passengers travel in luxury and comfort, by utilising only coaches owned by reputable tour companies and operators.  All of the coaches are seat-belted, air-conditioned, video equipped, and most contain a toilet.  Out & About Day Tours use regular coach drivers to convey passengers travelling on the tours.  These drivers have been carefully selected after observing their professional manner and the friendly and caring attitude that they display to the passengers.

The tours are often packed with many things to see and do.  Departure times depend on the departure point, the distance to be travelled and the amount of venues to be visited during the tour.  Many of the tours have departure times between 6.00am and 7.30am and return home between 7.00pm and 8.30pm. 

Most of the tours operated by Out & About Day Tours include a delicious Devonshire Tea, which is served prior to arrival at the first venue to be visited.  All of the morning teas are served in coffee shops, bistros or tea-rooms. Prior to each tour, Phillip & Karen liaise with the staff at these facilities to help ensure the passengers are treated to quality food, service and attention.

Out & About Day Tours offers many residents the unique service of a departure point in the suburb in which they live. If this is not possible, then there is usually one in a nearby suburb.  There are over 250 different departure points available to residents living in Sydney, Penrith and the Lower Blue Mountains. There are around 20 departure points available for residents wishing to join a tour in the Central Coast region. For Canberra and Queanbeyan residents, there are six departure points on offer. 

Passengers travelling in groups of 10 or more, who wish to join a tour at one central point, are welcome to request a preferred departure point. 

Phillip and Karen look forward to seeing you soon on one of the exciting day tours organised by their business – Out & About Day Tours.
