    Good tour from cruise ship in Sydney. However, we had inconsistent information about the start time, which made for rocky start. The tour guide was a competent driver but provided very little commentary or information during the long drive. He had a quiet voice that did not reach to the back seats so the commentary he did provide wasn’t heard by everyone. We enjoyed our time at the lighthouse and fortress.
