We had an excellent small group tour with our guide Peter. We covered a lot of ground in Sydney and saw/experienced all the key things on our list! The Opera house is wonderful as expected, but we also got to explore Darling Harbour, the Rocks, and other local sites. Peter was able to adapt along the way for us to get our best experience. Wonderful memories about Sydney, we'll be pleased to return again.
Darling Harbour, the Rocks, the Opera House, sounds like an amazing adventure! Thank you for letting us be part of it.
John was a terrific guide. So very knowledgeable about everything Sydney ! From Darling Harbour to The Rocks and even included a pint and a Cricket lesson. I’m now a proud fan. Watched the Australian final-winning !!!!
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful feedback! We’re thrilled to hear that John made your Sydney experience so memorable—from exploring Darling Harbour and The Rocks to enjoying a pint and even a cricket lesson. It’s great to know you’ve become a proud fan and caught the final-winning match too! We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to John.
This was a wonderful tour around highlights of Sydney where we really got a taste for history and grew our knowledge and understanding of this beautiful city. Ross was our tour guide and was truly a pleasure. Knowledgeable, friendly, and tailored our tour for what we wanted. We would highly recommend this tour and Ross!
