Background
RST offer a part driving and part walking small group tours of Sydney Australia, exploring the beautiful coast line of Sydney taking in expansive views and enchanting bays and beaches. An intimate, fun and very personalised guiding service of Sydney, RST always stop where the big tourist buses can't go and we get a flavour for local cafes and restaurants.

-Our target market are from English speaking countries as our tour is conducted in English.
-Visitors to Sydney mainly from USA, Canada, New Zealand, UK and India.
- Over 50's cruise going client.( These people generally come to Sydney for a few days on either side of a cruise around the Pacific. They have ventured into downtown Sydney on their own but on day two or three they want a more intimate look at the city. They want to see the city through the eyes of a local. Alternatively they fly into Sydney in the morning and leave on a cruise in the afternoon so we are a perfect way for them to spend a transit day in Sydney.)

The design needs to be clean and easy to navigate through. Ideally the design is white/fresh with splashes of colour.
The logo needs to feature and stand out.
Colours: Use the colours in the logo supplied.
The website should prompt customers to contact us (email or call) and make a further enquiry. (a capture email box (will use feedburner email capture).
