Lili the tour guide was amazing. Knowledgeable and friendly with a sweet sense of humor. She made you want to come back and explore more of Sydney. If you can, ask for Lili. And wait for the “birds” 😀

A very informative walk around historical Sydney. Lilldy our guide was so very enthusiastic and passionate you couldn’t help but get drawn into her wealth of knowledge that she shared with us all. You simply must go on this walk!
Alfred_C, Mar 2026
Lily (Li Li) was a wealth of knowledge and passionate about the city of Sydney. The 2 1/2 hour walking tour was filled with history, local culture and knowledge. She showed us where the city was and where/ how it became Sydney today. Highly recommended for history lovers and if you don’t mind being on your feet for a long walk throughout the CBD, especially the Rocks.

The guide was very informative. She stopped a lot to allow the slower walkers to catch up. She made sure we could all hear her and she pointed out things that a tourist would normally miss.

Highly recommended walking tour! You will get a great overview of the history, architecture and buildings of sydney then decide which attractions to visit in detail in your own time.
We got to see a different side of sydney and really enjoyed the tour.
Kevin_T, Mar 2026
Lilly, our guide, was very informative and passionate about Sydney history and culture. She especially liked talking about the plant life in the Sydney Botanical Garden. Lots of walking, often a little too fast for me, but overall OK.

I am giving this tour 5 stars because of the tour operator, Bakhtiyor, even though I didn’t go on this specific tour. Unfortunately, on the morning of the walking tour, past the cancellation deadline, one of us had knee pain and couldn’t walk. I messaged the tour operator in the Viator app. I asked if we could join the walking tour on a different day later in the week. He responded later that evening offering to put us on a bus tour a few days later. We went on the bus tour a few days later and he was funny and we enjoyed the tour. I would give him 5 stars for bus tour too.
Annette_L, Feb 2026
