History
Established in 2012.
Dingo Tours was founded in Sydney in 2012 by Jelle Marechal. His inspiration came after a trip to Dunns Swamp in the Wollemi NP, where he identified the need for more authentic and affordable experiences than the typical ones made available by commercial tour operators.
Recognizing the possibilities of online & marketing and social media to drive costs down, Jelle Marechal decided to put his knowledge and skills into developing and leading tailor made tours, that cater to Australians and visitors wanting to get travel to and beyond the Australian tourism icons!
Since then Dingo Tours has delighted hundreds of guests from Europe, the US, Asia and Australia with countless day trips and extended holidays in Sydney and NSW.
Meet the Business Owner: Jelle J.
I am an Australian citizen, with an European (Belgian) background. In 2004, I set up Australia's first social activity network (facetime.com.au). Since then, I have developed, lead or participated in more than 1000 tours and activities - anything from contemporary art gallery tours and pub crawls in Sydney and Melbourne, to kayaking and bushwalking weekends in many national parks and cycling trips through the country sides around all capital cities of Australia.
Driven by this passion for Australia and Sydney, I have over the years accumulated a wealth of inside knowledge which helps me share my passion for this place, and to deliver participants of my tours unique and unforgettable experiences of learning, discovery and total indulgence.
