WILD Wombat and Kangaroo Day Tour, All Inclusive

EileenDowney, Oct 2026

Best Tour in Sydney

Dave our guide was one of the best we have ever had on a tour. He was so accommodating to everyone in the group. The tour itself was unbelievable we saw kangaroos, wombats, flying foxes and birds. The best part is the animals were only a few feet away. Dave goes beyond extra for his guests with snacks and drinks. He took photos for everyone. Truly a tour not to miss. Also he picked out a great pub in the countryside for an amazing dinner and Dave waited on us there as well. Don’t miss out this tour is a must.

Sydney Opera House Official Guided Walking Tour

Michael_T, Oct 2026

Up close tour was great!

I've always wanted to tour the Sydney Opera House and was so glad I booked this tour. Knowing we'd be in Sydney for a week, we had purchased tickets to a performance in advance so we could "experience" the venue, but we were also very intrigued by this tour that offered a no crowds, in-depth tour of the entire complex. Taking the tour before the concert made me appreciate and understand the performance space better. Our guide was so friendly and genuinely excited to share her knowledge about the history and legacy of this landmark. I highly recommend this tour!

Matthew_S, Oct 2026

Full experience packed...

Full experience packed with different items. We got to see beautiful mountains, animals at the zoo, and enjoy several different rides at Scenic World and the ferry. It was a great way to get a little bit of everything for our trip. Jamie was our guide and super knowledgeable, friendly and made the experience even better!

Blue Mountains Day Tour Including Parramatta River Cruise

Vicki_J, Oct 2026

Good value for money and great way to see the Blue mountains

The tour was really interesting. We really enjoyed the Sydney Zoo but a lot of the animals weren't out as it was quite early. Really loved Scenic World the cable cars were amazing and the rail ride. Also loved seeing the waterfalls. Leura was very quaint for lunch. Also really enjoyed the ferry ride from Parramatta back to Sydney. Overall a really good day with lots of things to see and do. Given the day we were really lucky to see the blue of the blue mountains and see the three sisters. On other bus tours that I have been on (and I have done hundreds) the tour guide usually tries to break the ice with the customers by introducing each other eg where your from, etc. But he didn't do this and the tour customers didn't seem to gel as well. It was the only let down that the tourists didn't interact with each other.

Kevin_P, Oct 2026

Great day out from Sydney

This Blue Mountains tour was excellent value for money. It was a fun, relaxing day, and I didn't have to stress about driving or planning anything. Our guide, Ian, was fantastic. He took us to some really good spots and was very informative, sharing plenty of interesting facts and local knowledge along the way. It made the whole experience feel more personal than just ticking off sights. Highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to see the Blue Mountains without the hassle.

BridgeClimb Sydney

AnthonyL_W, Oct 2026

Glad We Did It!

We did the full Summit climb. It lasted about 3 hours in total and we were happy that we did it. There are definitely parts (beginning and end) that are more nerve wracking than the middle but we definitely enjoyed the experience. On way to the summit the guide took plenty of pictures as we were not allowed to take our own phones with us which made sense for safety reasons. Some people will complain that you are forced to buy photos from the tour but we knew that going in so it wasn’t a big deal. Overall, it was exciting, scary and exhilarating all at once!

It was a great pleasure...

It was a great pleasure meeting Jed and the other members of the tour. Jed was incredibly friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable, sharing valuable information and insights throughout the experience. His guidance made the tour both enjoyable and informative. For other travellers, I would highly recommend this experience. It’s a wonderful opportunity to learn, connect with others, and gain useful local knowledge. Thank you, Jed, for making the experience so welcoming and memorable!

Small Group: Blue Mountains with Zoo, Koala Photo & Scenic World

Mark_E, Oct 2026

A full day of sights, but not too taxing

We booked very last minute and had good communication even with such a short window. We easily found the tour start at Central Station. We chose to wear a mask while in the bus in order to protect us from picking up any bugs for the remainder of our holiday. Our tour was on Sunday (easier traffic back to Sydney at the end) during school holidays, so things were crowded and hurried at Scenic World to stay on time. Gordon and Frank were great guides, making sure everyone was coming along and had the rest breaks that we all needed.

Shelley_N, Oct 2026

Beautiful trip, wear warm clothing

Well run and informative trip. Our guide Phil had very good local knowledge. The mountains were noticeably colder than Sydney so remember to dress warmly. The day was carefully worked out so you never felt rushed and the ferry on the Parramatta River back to Sydney a lovely added extra.

Blue Mountain Small Group Tour All Inclusive

CYNTHIA_W, Oct 2026

Excellent small group tour exceeded our expectations

This was the best tour that we’ve had during our stay in Sydney. Our tour guide was JD, and he was fantastic!! The spots that he took us to had fantastic views. JD was extremely interesting and kept us engaged throughout the tour. We learned a lot about the history of Australia and the areas that we visited. JD gave us great recommendations for things to do. I highly recommend this tour. You are in for a treat if JD is your tour guide.

Blue Mountains Tour: Deluxe Small Group, ScenicWorld, Featherdale

Chanika_P, Aug 2026

Worth the day trip!

The Blue Mountains are exceptional. This was my second time seeing them and visiting Featherdale, but it was my brother’s first and he loved the entire experience. Beautiful views, nothing too strenuous activity-wise that you can’t opt out of if you have mobility challenges, and just an all-around spectacular day trip out of Sydney. If you’re lucky enough to get Rocky as your tour guide, you’re in for a treat!

Sydney Harbour Discovery Dinner Cruise Scenic Sights and Buffet

Shelagh_L, Jun 2026

Fantastic dinner cruise on Sydney Harbour

Runs on time, easy to find and the enjoyment starts as soon as you get on board. Kim is a wonderful crew member and asset. She was funny and friendly and the buffet was delicious. There were 3 birthdays on the dinner cruise and Kim encouraged us all to wish them a happy birthday. The cruise was just the right length of time. So much to see and to take photos of along the way. We would do it again.
