We had an incredible day exploring Sydney on this tour! Ben was exceptionally knowledgeable—every stop came with fascinating insights, local history, and great stories that really brought the city to life. His communication was excellent from start to finish: clear, friendly, and always making sure everyone felt comfortable and engaged. The itinerary was well-paced, allowing us to enjoy iconic highlights like the Harbour, Bondi, and the historic Rocks area without ever feeling rushed. We especially appreciated the guide’s ability to answer every question with enthusiasm and detail. If you’re looking for a day trip that’s informative, well-organized, and genuinely enjoyable, We highly recommend this tour. It made my visit to Sydney truly memorable!

Ben arranged a wonderful day of sightseeing for us in Sydney. He picked us up at the cruise port for an 8-hour tour which included short walking tours around Sydney Harbour Bridge, the Opera House, Centennial Park and Bondi Beach where we had lunch. Much of the tour was driving around the city where Ben provided enough history to gain knowledge of all the main attractions as well as lesser-known ones. From White Bay, the Fish Market, Chinese Garden and The Rocks, to Harry’s Café de Wheels, Mrs. Macquarie’s Chair, the Gap and the Eastern Suburbs, Ben provided a lot of information that helped us plan the rest of our week in Sydney. This enabled us to determine where we wanted to go back and spend more time seeing our favorite attractions during our week-long visit. I highly recommend utilizing Ben’s expertise to help plan your visit.

Wonderful way to see the highlights of Sydney with Ben who was an exceptional tour guide. There was an excellent balance between driving through parts of the city and walking through parks and beaches. Tour guides make the day and Ben sure made ours, funny, knowledgeable, very informative, we spent a very enjoyable day with him. I would highly recommend this tour anyone who wants to see the highlights of Sydney in a day. Thank you Ben for a great day.

Just spent 3 amazing days with Ben. We toured Sydney and the Bondi Beach area the first day, then headed to the Blue mountains on the second, finishing with the reptile park and central coast on the last day. Ben was a joy to tour with. We saw far more than we could have ever covered on our own. It was the perfect way to see Sydney and the surrounding area in a short time! Highly recommend!

Ben is an amazing wealth of information about Sydney and Australia. He is kind, considerate and was willing to answer all our questions. It was raining hard during our tour but still managed to include all Sydney’s highlights and beach’s, even had umbrellas for all four adults. He met us at the airport smiling even though our plane was 2 hours late. Just a top notch tour and really great man. Thanks again Ben

This was an excellent tour to get an overview of the metro Sydney city. Ben was excellent in providing information prior to the tour regarding pickup,tour inclusions etc.. He adjusted our pick up time and was there at our hotel to meet us. It is a full day tour in a very comfortable and clean van. A great value as there were four of us and we got to see the highlights of the city. We paired this with the blue mountains tour and were again happy and thrilled with overall tour. Be sure to do the cable car and tram into the rain forest. Both days Ben made arrangements for lunch and it was great both times. Great food selections. On the blue mountains tour he stopped at a local Ugg store on the way back to Sydney. Locally operated and the prices were incredible. He does not get a kick back. This was just a random request we made and he accommodated us. Overall Ben is a great tour guide with intimate knowledge of Sydney and the blue mountains. He is friendly and funny and has many antidotes to provide an in depth understanding of Sydney and the surrounding areas. Highly recommend Ben for his tours.
