I’m Pipster, your go-to Sydney sidekick who has lived all over the world and still insists this is the best city on Earth (and yes, I can prove it with beaches, brunch, and unbeatable shopping). You’ll usually find me wandering the historic nooks of The Rocks, power strolling past Mrs Macquarie’s Chair, or doing every foreshore walk like it is a competitive sport. I know the eastern suburbs like an old friend, especially Paddington’s hidden treasures. If you are after the perfect beach, coffee, wine, or all three at once, I have you covered because Sydney and I have history.

My reviews

    Pipster was such an amazing host! Her deep knowledge of Sydney was evident from the moment we met her. She knew the city, its neighborhoods, its food, and its culture. She showed us all of the major sites, but also lots of hidden gems throughout the city and even its suburbs! Our time in Sydney was significantly improved thanks to this tour. We loved hanging out with Pipster and now consider her a friend.

    My wife and I visited Sydney for a very short time and had only one afternoon to get to know a little about Sydney. We found this "unscripted" tour which appeared perfect for our needs because it could be tailored to our tight schedule. We were toured by Pipster, who communicated with us in advance to coordinate everything, rearranged the meeting place to our hotel because we were running late from the airport, and waited for us patiently (and woth cold water bottles) in the lobby. She took us on a marvelous tour showing us all the "hidden side" of Sydney, showing us eating places (we are foodies) and tucked away corners as only a knowledgeable local could do. We find after traveling a while that the most enjoyable experiences occur when you identify unique gems that show the character of the place and the people and Pup did just that for us. We highly recommend this tour!
