4.00This is an excellent overview of Sydney in a very short time frame. Our guide was knowledgeable about the entire city and we covered a lot of ground. A caution, Sydney is very hilly and the roads are bumpy so just be prepared.
Good over view of the city.

5.00We enjoyed our private half day tour. Our guide was informative & engaging. We saw a lot of sydney in 4 hours. We would recommend taking off the Opera house from the list of included stops as we didn't get to stop there at all & not sure how the guide could park for us to stop. Our guide did do a drive by once we requested it. Also bottled water was supposed to be included but we didn't get any.

5.00Lovely way to see the city! We mentioned to Andrew that we like history and architecture, so he brought us through some of Sydney’s many neighborhoods and told us about them, pointing out certain houses. He also brought is to several scenic vistas, including Sydney Harbor National Park and Bondi Beach. Andrew knows all the best tea shops, too! He left us off at the Queen Victoria Building so we could have tea there on the top floor.

5.00Our guide took us through the city in chronological order. He took us to the first areas that were established first and then to the areas that are just now being developed - Barangaroo. Throughout he gave us historical facts, folklore and anecdotes about each area. His knowledge was very extensive. He was also very personable. A great tour and a great guide!!
