What are people saying about Sydney

Depart Syd: Blue Mountains Best All Inclusive with Local Guide

Leona_R, Oct 2026

Our guide Jay was great...

Our guide Jay was great and very informative! The blue mountains part of the tour was a bit of a bummer because of the weather but obviously that can’t be avoided! Jay still made it a fun time! Scenic world was cool. Featherdale wildlife park was incredible and would 100% go back there!

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.

Blue Mountains Steam Train + 3 Sisters + Scenic World + SYD Ferry

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 Mountains Mercedes Tour: Scenic World, Falls & Leura

Rhonda_W, Oct 2026

Whether you're a tourist or a local, this is the perfect Blue Mountains tour

Our tour guide, Ian, was heaps of fun. He struck the perfect balance of providing an overview of Sydney as well as the general plan for the day. The small group experience was definitely a bonus in that you're not waiting around for ages for other guests and the driver is more like a friend than a guide. We loved the quality of the vehicle provided, the flexibility of pick up locations, options during the tour as well as the opportunity to partake in as little or as much as you chose. Whilst we're residents of Australia, there's always something new to learn and see - this tour ticked both boxes! Many thanks for all concerned. We will definitely return and will sing your praises to anyone we know who is contemplating a similar experience.

WILD Wombat and Kangaroo Day Tour, All Inclusive

Thao_T, Oct 2026

When you give a wombat a carrot!

An amazing day, traveling on a bus south of Sydney to get to viewing wild wombats and kangaroos! Our guide was knowledgeable and coordinated the tour, snacking, drinking, bathroom breaks, dinner food accommodations, and wombats photography, and star gazing/photo with ease! The tour does take up the entire 10 hours from noon to 10pm. Our guide dropped us off at our hotel/ airbnb. Trip felt safe and very well coordinated even in a big group setting. With the tour, dinner, snacks, wildlife viewing, trip was very decently priced !!

BridgeClimb Sydney

Anna_W, Oct 2026

Bucket List: Check!!

Our climb only had 10 people and it was fantastic!! We had a gentleman who was turning 70 and this was what he wanted to do for his birthday. Our guide Chris was amazing, he told us all kinds of great historical facts about the area plus he threw in some fun and funny banter with all of us! The weather was partially cloudy which made it perfect because it was not super hot for the climb. I was excited to do this activity since I had landed in Sydney and I finally got my husband convinced to do it. It was not that strenuous and as long as you can climb a ladder, you are set! Take the plunge and make the trip up to the very top! It was starting to become sunset as we crossed over and it made the opera house just glow. If you worried about your safety, don’t!! This company has many parameters in place along the way that you never even really think about being that high up. Plus the guides are always checking in with everyone to make sure everyone is good. You need to make sure this is on your bucket list!!

Blue Mountains Day Trip from Sydney Including Scenic World

Cherie_M, Oct 2026

magical blue mountains

This was a great day! We went to the featherdale wildlife area and got to pet kangaroos and koalas and see many other animals. We stopped in an area that had lots of choices for lunch before moving on to the three sisters and scenic world. We had great views from the scenic world rides. We had a small group bus which I prefer. Our tour guide. Aaron was wonderful and had lots of information.

Sydney Whale-Watching Cruise Including Lunch or Breakfast

Anna_W, Sep 2026

Be Prepared & Whales Guaranteed

When we checked in for our tickets, it was recommended to get motion sickness pills and majority of the boat did not do so! The gentleman at the ticket counter said the swells were 1-2 m however, that was not the case! The swells were more like 4-5 m and the weather was cloudy with a chance for some rain in the afternoon. That rain started about halfway through our excursion. The sound of people vomiting on the boat was awful! You have to vomit in a throw-away bag, or I guess over the side of the boat, but not in a bathroom. Fresh air will make people feel better but several just stayed seated inside which I think makes it worse. My husband and I dressed for the weather and spent most of the time outside of the interior portion of the boat. Neither of us got sick, and the rain did come. The whales however started performing more and coming out of the water and breaching high up…it was magnificent!!! The company served breakfast prior to going out but for anyone who has any sort of seasickness, don’t eat!! The open sea water is NO JOKE!! Overall, seeing whales in the open water and just getting to see them as you would on a nature documentary was just amazing and I would do it again! We also had some dolphins that came up literally within a meter of the boat and were jumping through the waves and playing! Also note - you may get wet if standing on the lower level on the side of the boat as the waves splash up.

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.
