5.00Daniel took us all over Sydney and walked over the Sydney Harbor Bridge, drove and stopped for walks through neighborhoods on both sides, through The Rocks and historic Sydney and of course great views of the Opera House, before going to Bondi Beach for lunch and walking the beach. Loved this tour.

5.00We had such a fun day with Kori exploring Sydney and its amazing neighborhoods. Kori is extremely knowable and able to answer so many questions about the history of Sydney. This tour was a perfect first day introduction to the city. We now know the neighborhoods we want to spend more time in and fun places to go in each. Highly recommend this tour to explore the best the city has to offer.

5.00Our tour with Kori ( Korhan Karakoyun ) was fantastic. Pick up was smooth and I appreciated Kori’s contact in advance to make it so. Kori is an extremely pleasant and knowledgeable guide and made our tour both informative and a wonderful experience of visiting so much of Sydney. I would highly recommend anyone visiting Sydney to take a tour with Kori, whether it was this particular tour or one of the others he offers.
