We highly recommend this trip. - Korhan, our tour guide is very knowledgeable and adaptive to our request. The trip was fun and informative. The vehicle was new, well maintained and clean. The tour provided profound insight about Sydney. Additionally, our guide recommended fish and chips at Doyle’s, which were wonderful! Our family really enjoyed the trip.

Super Tour - das nächste Mal gerne wieder - We thoroughly enjoyed today’s tour. The guide runs the business with passion and showed us many valuable insider locations that we wouldn’t have found on our own. The conversations on the highway were also very interesting, bringing us closer to the culture of Sydney and Australia. Our kids asked a lot of questions, and nearly all of them were answered. My wife had been to this city 30 years ago and had some specific requests and questions about spots she remembered from back then. This was no problem at all, and he completely accommodated our wishes. We truly had a personal guide who fulfilled all our wishes from 9:30 am to 3:30 pm. We highly recommend this tour to everyone and will book another tour with him the next time we are in Sydney to gain new insights. It was very pleasant riding in the Audi Q7, and the temperature could be adjusted to our liking.

Memorable Tour Experience - Daniel was our excellent and knowledgeable tour guide. We are a family of 4 and had an amazing time! He picked us up at our hotel and drove us around town. He managed our time very methodical and strategic, which allowed us plenty of time to view the city and its hidden gems. For lunch, we ate a this very cool Burger place in Bondi Beach and had delicious ice cream for dessert at a creamery off the beat and path. Daniel was very well versed and knowledgeable with the city and its history. Thanks to Daniel and his excellent service, we highly recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in a private tour with a knowledgeable guide. Thank you for the memorable experience!

Perfect tour to begin your visit in Sydney - I highly recommend this tour as it was absolutely this highlight of our time in Sydney. Daniel was an informative and interesting tour guide. We started our day walking along the Harbour and then took a quick 25 min walk across the Harbour Bridge for some amazing views. Then we walked around the outside of the Sydney Opera House and stopped at several spots for amazing views and photo opportunities. We had lunch at Watsons Bay before going to Bondi Beach. There we took and quick/easy walk from Bondi to Coogee Beach. This is the perfect tour to start your trip in Sydney.
