Hi there! I'm John, a proud local host in the vibrant city of Sydney. I am passionate about sharing the beauty and excitement of this fantastic city with visitors from all over the world. One of the things I love most about Sydney is its energy and buzz. There is always something happening, whether it's a festival, concert, or simply people enjoying the sun and sea. Of course, the stunning beauty of the Harbour is also a constant source of inspiration for me. But what truly sets Sydney apart is its ability to offer the best of both worlds. You can be in the heart of the city one minute, surrounded by towering buildings and bustling crowds, and then just a few hundred meters away, you can find yourself in peaceful and serene areas like Hyde Park or the Botanic Gardens. I have an intimate knowledge of the local area and I am always eager to share my favorite spots with my guests. Whether you're looking for a great meal, a delicious drink, or a scenic walk, I know just where to go. So if you're planning a trip to Sydney and want to experience the city like a local, I would be honored to be your guide!

John was my tour guide and was a really great one! We met up at the pickup location and due to me already being familiar with the area, we were able to do an adhoc change to of the places we we going to visit. We were able to visit The Rocks, The Botanical Gardens, get some really good views of The Opera House from Milsons point and have an amazing walk around Sydney. John was very knowledgable, had great jokes, very personable and ensured I was okay throughout the tour. Definitely a great tour and thoroughly enjoyed and will recommend John for all who is looking for a nice tour around the city.

What a perfect way to begin our first trip to Sydney! John C was quick to reach out with an intro and communicate about our interests and private walking tour. We saw, we learned, we walked, talked and laughed. Not only were we able to learn about this amazing city from a wonderful local pro, we were able to easily acclimate for our week + visit so that we could make the most of our trip, commute easily via walking, ferry or metro with confidence. Highly recommend!
