Martin was really informative and very funny in giving information on the various sites in Sydney. Did not get long enough in Bondi Beach but this was due to passengers returning late on other stops
Great guided tour with lifelong memories

Complete rubbish. A waste of time.

This was absolutely rubbish. It was basically a tour of the suburbs of Sydney punctuated by stops in random places so that we could all get out and take the same picture of the harbour, just from different angles. That was it, basically. Boring. Boring. However, if this wasn’t bad enough, the on board guide was useless. I don’t blame him at all but he was clearly not English (sounded Central European) and his accent was so strong as to be virtually incomprehensible. I hardly understood a word of what he was saying. I couldn’t believe that a person with such a strong European accent (and I mean strong) was chosen to be a guide. So as well as the experience being visually boring, it was also a total waste of time if you wanted to find out about the city of Sydney. All in all, a complete waste of nearly 4 hours. Avoid at all costs.
Great way to get to know Sydney!

This is a great way to get to know Sydney in a decent amount of time, 3.5 hours to see some of the most iconic places in this city. Our driver, Michael, was amazing, funny and told many stories along the way. We learned so much on our trip, and enjoyed all the stops tremendously!
Good introduction to get us started

This was our (jet lagged) introduction to Sydney and it was exactly what was needed to help get a feel for the city, what it had to offer and how to manage it, the length was just right too. Thanks for a really good fun trip
