You’ll join one of our Sydney hosts, who can’t wait to share their city with you. Deciding where to go and what to skip in a city as golden, big and shiny as Sydney is a challenge for any mere mortal, but not for an insider. From cocktail bars to scrumptious eateries and historic neighborhoods to energetic markets the day’s sights are yours to command! Your host will have a few suggestions of their own, but the gist of this experience is to blend city highlights with local insights and come up with a Sydney cocktail that’s authentic and fun!

Within 24 hours after booking you'll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, you'll be assigned a like-minded host. Your host will communicate with you directly to suggest an itinerary to help you discover what makes the city unique. You will also agree on a meeting time and place. Your itinerary is flexible, so during the

experience, you can always change your mind about what you want to do.

    We wanted to take a private tour on our first day in Sydney to get a lay of the land. Our guide John was very helpful with this. He took us across the Harbor Bridge, walked around the Sydney Opera House then we took a ferry to Watsons Bay then a bus to Bondi Beach. John took us up a trail by Watson’s Bay that I’m sure we wouldn’t have found ourselves and I was able to see some whales playing from our spot atop a cliff! Amazing! We enjoy private tours because it is easier to ask questions and learn about the local culture.

    Despite a very wet and windy day, I had a great experience. I opted for a historical tour and Malcolm Harrison did an awesome job filling me in on the history of Sydney and also of the early explorers of Australia. I'm a bit of a history buff so I loved every minute. We walked all over Sydney and even took the ferry to Manly Beach.

  • Superb orientation to Sydney

    Peter led us on a fantastic journey around Sydney and its environs. We did the tour the first morning we were in Sydney and Australia. He was knowledgeable and shared information not only about Sydney but also about Australia. He tailored our experience to our group and was able to focus on areas that were of interest.
