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.

Ross was friendly engaged g and VERY KNOWLEDGABLE about the history, culture, architecture and overall vibe of Sidney. I met him basically straight off the plane for my first visit to Australia, and he gave me a tremendous foundation to understand the city of the country.

Peter was a fabulous guide and packed a ton into our short amount of time without us ever feeling rushed. Love that we took the lightrail and ferry. We learned a ton and feel very comfortable making our way around the city on our own.

My 22 year old daughter and I had a wonderful 5+ hour tour with Peter on a beautiful Sunday. This was our first full day of a week in Sydney, and it was the perfect tour, as he showed us the city and how to navigate public transportation. He took us to Manly Beach on a walk with gorgeous vistas. It was the perfect mix of Australian history, learning the city, and exploring one of the beach towns. I highly recommend Peter if you are planning a day tour of Sydney.
