Sydney Opera House back stage - The Sydney Opera house is amazing! I've always wanted to see it because it's so beautiful with the harbor as the back drop. Well it was all I imagined and more. Our guide Peter was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic as he guided us back stage in this marvelous building. We were able to sit in on a couple of rehearsals which was a add plus. This is a must do tour and we'll worth the money. Loved it!!

Great guide, very interesting. - This tour really offered more than I expected. Our guide, Emily, was so knowledgeable. She showed us the ins and outs of the theater from the point of view of the performers and the massive number of people that it takes to put on a show. Would recommend without hesitation.

Great tour! - Learned lots about the building, how it came to be, how it works. Michael was wonderful. He knew so much about the building itself and even more it seemed about the shows that have been there and how the staff was able to put them on stage.

Breakfast tour is best to take - Conor did a great job. We got a full tour from multiple stages and behind, dressing rooms, symphony hall, fly tower, set storage and more. Very informative and interesting and Conor provided great derail on the history renovations and workings of the space. Even got to see the 50 year old wind machine that's never been used and the foundation for the no longer used round stage lift. If possible thke the breakfast tour as you'll be able to see motr of the house, and breakfast in the green room (staff canteen) is actually good

Very interesting - Great tour. Connor, our tour guide, explained and showed us what the back stage originally looked like and where all the improvements and renovations were made. Lots of stairs and not for someone that was physically challenged or afraid of heights. Absolutely fantastic Breakfast was served at the end of the trip.
