Perfect day

Joseph_E, May 2024

We had several things in mind we wanted to see and do. Kay was very prompt and had a perfect itinerary set up for us. The entire city was beautiful. Kay took fabulous pictures with us to preserve our great experience. And he is very witty and fun to be around.

Great tour

Jon_K, Dec 2022

Great tour. Excellent vehicle. Pleasant tour guides. I would highly recommend this tour! It was just the two of us, the driver & guide. We had lots of questions about Sydney & they certainly knew their town.

Response from Host, Dec 2022

Patricia H, Mar 2018

Glenn was a wonderful tour guide... telling us about Sydneys culture and history. He took is to spectacular views of the harbor, hikes along rocky cliffs, ice cream at the charming Watson Bay community and walks along Bondi and Manly beach. We had plenty of breaks to stretch and he was excellent at educating us about this wonderful city.

thomas A, Jul 2017

Very accommodating.driver was extremely patient and waited a couple of hours while we tried in vain to locate our luggage at the airport. It arrived three days later. We were able to prearrange our pickup at the airport and started the tour from there. Great introduction to Australia. Once in the vehicle the experience was once in a lifetime venture. Wonderful beginning to an excellent trip. Highly recommend this tour. Worth every penny and then some.
