Good value for money. Very knowledgeable and he covered a huge area of Sydney. He would’ve carried on for another hour if we hadn’t said we had got another excursion booked for 2 PM. We were on a cruise out of the overseas terminal and the drop off point at Sydney Opera House was ideal as we were booked on a walking tour of the Opera House and it was only about a 10 minute walk to our ship from circular key. Highly recommended especially for cruise ship passengers.
Great itinerary, but heavy accent, on bus driver/tour guide negatively Impacted communication.

We enjoyed the bus tour of Sydney and its surroundings. The bus was clean, air conditioned, and comfortable. The stops were of interest however there nothing of "monumental importance." The views of the opera house and bridge were very good from several locations. The driver kept things moving at each stop informing us of the closest bathrooms and the importance of returning to the bus on time. My only slight complaint was that the driver spoke with quite a thick accent since English was his second language. Sometimes it was difficult to understand. Other than that, he did a great job of getting us everywhere efficiently and safely. One thing I really appreciated was that at our 40-minute lunch stop at Bondi Beach he gave several recommendations instead of pushing us to patronize one cafe in particular.
Fun trip
