Wild wombats

Wonderful experience and highly recommend this tour. Our guide, Dave, was super considerate and the day was thought out well. Ended the day with the wombats and kangaroos. Stargazing was another fun experience. Definitely worth the price and everything was perfect!

Had the weather...

Had the weather cooperated during the Blue Mountain and Three Sisters visit, it would have been perfect. But even with these challenges, our guide Phil still made the rest of the tour well worth it with his humor, information and all around attention to detail in keeping it moving smoothly. Nature had other plans, but I enjoyed the day out. Thanks!

A huge thank you to Gill...

A huge thank you to Gill for a fantastic tour of Canberra! His knowledge of Parliament House, the War Memorial, and Canberra’s history was exceptional, and he shared it in a way that was both informative and engaging. Gill was friendly, patient, and organised, and his passion for the city really shone through. Nothing was too much trouble, and he made the day enjoyable from start to finish. We learned so much and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We would highly recommend Gill to anyone visiting Canberra. Thank you for a wonderful day! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 😊🇦🇺🌟

The perfect way to spend your first day in Sydney,

The perfect way to spend your first day in Sydney! Our guide, Helder, picked us up right on time, and showed us around all the neighborhoods of the city, as well as the well-known iconic sights. We had multiple photo op stops, and Helder offered to take photos for us at every one. He was friendly yet professional at all times. He was extremely knowledgeable about Sydney, and gave us a great leason in its history as we drove. I would definitely recommend this tour, especially if you can get Helder as your guide.

Amazing overview tour of Sydney

We 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.

Blue Mountains Small Group Tour with Waterfall Walk & Fresh Lunch

Cheryl_G, Apr 2026

We had an amazing day...

We had an amazing day exploring the Blue Mountains. The walk down to Wentworth Falls and back up to the car park involved a lot of steps up and down, but it was really worth the effort. As a bit older person, I paced myself and managed it just fine. Our driver and guide Glen was very knowledgeable and super friendly. Our picnic lunch was fun. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who really just wants to experience the beautiful Blue Mountains without all the other ad-on destinations that some tours offer.

Sydney The Rocks Guided Walking Tour

Oomfufu, Apr 2026

We did the Sydney Rocks...

We did the Sydney Rocks walking tour as a family of four (with our 13 and 10-year-old), and it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. Our guide, George, was excellent. He was passionate, engaging, and made the stories of The Rocks really come alive in a way that kept both adults and kids interested throughout. What stood out most was how thoughtfully he addressed the history — not just the colonial narrative, but also the very real and ongoing impact on Aboriginal Australians. It added important depth and perspective to the tour. George also recommended some great resources for further reading, which we appreciated. Overall, this was a fantastic introduction to Sydney’s history and culture — highly recommend, even if you’re travelling with kids or sceptical family members.

极其Chill的半日游！向导贴心又专业，行程充实且完全不累！A perfectly organized, chill, and fulfilling half-day tour! Highly recommend!

这次在悉尼报的这个半日大巴游真的很惊喜，必须来夸一下！首先导游一看就是个老手，时间安排得明明白白，每个点停多久都很合适。最让我觉得难得的是，团里有几位年纪大的长辈，导游在安排座位的时候特别细心照顾了他们，这个细节真的太加分了。路线基本是顺着海岸线走的，该打卡的必去景点都看到了。而且导游不是那种只会背台词的，还会特别实在地给我们推荐附近好吃的餐馆和靠谱的店，给了很多本地人的避坑建议。最后还要夸一下大巴车，车里干干净净的，一点奇怪的异味都没有（这点对我来说太重要了）。司机师傅开车也特别稳当。半天玩下来，感觉行程很充实但身体完全不累，整个氛围就是特别舒服放松，非常推荐！ Really enjoyed this half-day bus tour in Sydney! Everything was just spot on. Our guide was super experienced. The timing for each stop was perfectly planned out. I also really appreciated how considerate they were—they made sure to arrange the seating so the older tourists in our group were comfortable. That was a really nice touch. We drove along the beautiful coastline and hit all the must-see spots. The guide didn't just give us the standard sightseeing talk; they actually shared some great local tips on reliable shops and good places to eat nearby. Also, the bus itself was great. It was super clean with no weird smells at all, and the driver was incredibly smooth. We covered a lot of ground in half a day, but I didn't feel rushed or tired at all. Just a really relaxed and comfortable vibe the whole time. Highly recommend!

Fun and informative tour around Sydney

This was our very first Viator experience, and a great one! Martin, our driver and guide, was kind, polite, respectful, funny and very informative about all the local areas, as well as about the amenities such as WCs and good coffee shops. This is a relaxing way to see Sydney Harbour, the coastline and suburbs of East Sydney, Bondi Beach and a bit of Sydney CBD. Thankyou, Martin and Viator!

Sydney Bike Tours

Nancyroper, Mar 2026

Great Way to See Sights

Took a 2 1/2 hour bike tour around Sydney. It’s a great way to see a lot of the famous areas in a short amount of time. Michael with @bonzabiketours was informative, funny and knowledgeable. This was an “easy” bike ride and for the most part it was. There’s a small section about five blocks uphill. The most challenging part was dodging pedestrians.
