Taronga Zoo Entry & Return Ferry - Sydney Harbour

LINDEN_S, Apr 2026

Enjoyable day out, glad we visited. 😃

Handy bus to take you to the top of the hill, so that you walk down through the zoo back to the ferry. Managed to see lots of animals even those that were asleep in the open. Seeing the Rhino, koalas(asleep) otters, penguins etc.... Food court was like a zoo inside with limited stock for the amount of people, probably use for snacks only. Take a pack.lunch. Overall very enjoyable experience and the smaller Cook ferry was very pleasant plenty of room.

Surfing Lessons on Sydney's Bondi Beach

AnneMarie_T, Apr 2026

Great location, good instructors and fun day learning to surf! It was my son's highlight of our trip!

You spend about 40 minutes on land learning how to surf and practicing standing up on the board. Then you have about an hour and a half in the water. There surf was a little rough and there were lots of other people in the water that we had to navigate around. I like that we had 2 guides (1 was in training) so we had more 1-on-1 time to learn/practice.

Great Way to See Sydney

We very much enjoyed the Manly Beach bike tour. Nice bikes and helmets. Our guide Michael was excellent. Kind and warm, funny entertaining and informative! He was also very good about safety and keeping the group together We had a small group of 6, so we were able to meet new friends and enjoy the ride together Seeing a different part of Sydney plus a ferry ride was a good extra. Michael finished up with some hidden gems in The Rocks Highly recommended

Class Act

Excellent experience from start to finish. From being collected in the mini bus, very friendly driver to arriving at base, the guys there were very professional, polite and explained everything perfectly. Nice and relaxing lounge before and after the helicopter ride with refreshments on hand. The actual ride was out of this world a truly amazing experience, I felt exhilarated, my first ever ride. The pilot was very knowledgeable and very friendly. Thank you so much for such a memorable 60th birthday experience. It is a class organisation and I would highly recommend.

30-Minute Sydney Harbour Jet Boat Thrill Ride

Shaun_W, Mar 2026

Thrilling!

Experience is as described: 30-45min speedboat ride from Sydney Harbour. Staff very clear with safety advice & driver always gave a signal just before he'd do a spin or dive on the boat so you'd count it in together, and every now & again he'd stop to check everyone was OK. Red ponchos are offered free of charge, but you can choose to get soaked in your clothes, and you will get soaked! I'm glad I chose to do this experience

A Quick But Fun Exploration of Sydney

Matt was a fantastic guide. We packed in a lot into a short tour and definitely felt like I had a good grasp of the city which informed what I did later in my trip. He taught us a lot about the history of both the city and the country as a whole, and all with a great sense of humour. The vehicle was also very comfortable.

Shelly beach Snorkel B and B

If you enjoy snorkelling this is the trip for you. There is a huge variety of fish to see and if you are lucky the turtle will come and swim with you. Groups are small and our guide Laura was very attentive and ensured we got the best experience ensuring everyone was comfortable with their gear throughout the snorkelling trip. We started with a hike overlooking Shelly beach as seen on the Bold and Beautiful! So thrilled we made it here.

A whale of an experience

Fascinating and fantastic to see whales up close, and Personal. Don’t forget to bring your seasick medicine, in fact, take it before you leave for the tour. Other than that lunch was amazing, not your cheese sandwich, and water type of lunch, really good food. All in all, I can’t say enough good things about the tour.

Surf , sea and sand.. what more do you want?

Fantastic ! What a great way to learn to surf. Our 15 yr old had a blast on a windy, wet day. Really nice set up, good equipment and an excellent enthusiastic instructor. Three people love their surfing. We choose a lovely beach, less busy than Bondi. Cafe and shops around for those not getting wet.
