What are people saying about Sydney

Erin_M, Oct 2026

Gorgeous day in Blue Mountains

Our guide Ian was personable, entertaining, and helpful with information, as well as a safe driver. The van was very clean and comfortable. Echo Point stop is excellent and we could've spent even 30 more minutes there happily. Scenic World is more geared to families with younger children. It's a beautiful setting with hokey dinosaur /Jurassic World aspects. Unfortunately, if you aren't in to that, you can't avoid the animatronic specimens and their sounds through the forest walk on the raised boardwalks. The upside to this trip to Scenic World is that there are the fun funicular, gondola, and railway and they are very scenic and safe. Cafeteria food is okay. The stop at Katumba Falls was just the right length, as was the stroll through the little town of Leura. We would travel with this tour company again. We would choose a tour that has more hiking and no Scenic World if were to do it again.

LaTia_P, Oct 2026

Waterfalls, Wallaby's and Wombats Oh My!!

This trip was amazing. Our guide was great; he respectively answered all our questions. Hands down, the best activity while on our stay in Sydney. The supper pub was delicious with hot, big portioned, chicken parmi. The wombats and roos were spectacular.

Camille_m, Oct 2026

Amazing experience!! We...

Amazing experience!! We booked for the sunset views which we unfortunately didn’t really get to see any of it, that was disappointing.. my suggestion would be to go in the a lot before 6:15! Otherwise the views were amazing with all of Australia lit up!

Sydney Opera House Official Guided Walking Tour

Maggie_L, Oct 2026

Guided Tour

Amazing, the guide was very knowledgeable, and the Opera House was absolutely stunning and grand. The only negative thing is that Viator like most third-party booking systems don't use the same reference number that the Opera House uses so just arrive early to collect your physical ticket

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.

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.

Carmen_A, Oct 2026

Highly recommend this bus tour.

Featherdale Wildlife Park was the highlight of this tour. We saw a Tasmania devil and a cassowary. Magnificent animals! Blue Mountain glass sky cars were pretty cool too. If you enjoy being in a big tour bus while the guide points out interesting details I highly recommend this tour!

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.
