Delightful - Daniel was great and very accommodating of a fussy solo traveler like myself. But what a I like about this tour is the opportunity to discover so many hidden locations. I had both the privilege of seeing the famous spots but less the tourist crowds. Lunch was delicious, and i cant get enough of the wines 😝. Thank you Daniel! Highly Recommended!

Excellent day with Daniel - We had such a great day with Daniel! He picked us up on time and was prepared to help us experience many different areas that make Sydney wonderful. We learned about the “Rocks” and walked the bridge, went to the observatory and enjoyed a beautiful view of the city. Daniel was great to point out native trees and wildlife as we explored throughout the day along with interesting local stories. We had a fantastic lunch with water views at Watson’s Bay. Walking the Coastal Walk from Bondi Beach and beyond was incredible. So many beautiful views and opportunities to enjoy the area made us fall in love with Sydney. Thank you Daniel for a wonderful day!
