Malcolm, our guide, met us by the ship and took us on an amazing travel experience. We went by ferry, light rail, and walking tour throughout the city. Not only did we get to see and taste much of the city we learned much about it as well. One of the definite highlights was the Fish Market. We booked this on Viator and loved it!

John showed my family and I a great time in Sydney last week. He was very easy going to fit in well with our group. He made the experience fun by allowing us to choose some of our own items off the menus. I would absolutely recommend a food tour in Sydney with John.

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.
