Viator with Max as the guide for private tour of Sydney

mcpierce1, Apr 2025

Max did a fantastic job of taking us all around Sydney for our one day there! He picked us up at the airport and shuttled us all over in Avery organized way, with short walks to see special things. Really worth the money. Dropped us at the hotel after! perfect!

Response from Host, Apr 2025

Thank you very much for this amazing review. I am delighted that Max looked after you so well in the unforgettable Sydney City, Harbour and Bondi Beach :) Mike

Great welcome to Sydney

Aimee_L, Nov 2024

Mike was the consummate tour guide. He picked us up at the airport and showed us around Sydney in a comfortable van. He was very professional and warm and showed us a lot of wonderful sites and shared great stories. We were all a little tired from our long flight, but he kept us engaged throughout the entire tour. I highly recommend a tour with Mike for a great intro to Sydney.

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Thank you Jason for your fantastic review. It was my pleasure to introduce you all to the beautiful sights of Sydney City, Harbour and Bondi Beach. Mike

Awesome experience!

Samuel_C, Mar 2024

Mike was the best driver/ tour guide. Very knowledgeable and brought us to the best locations and views.

Response from Host, Jun 2024

Thank you Samuel for this great review. I'd delighted you enjoyed the best views of Sydney's City, Harbour and Bondi Beach too :) Mike

Loved Bonsi

JessicaDAurora, Feb 2024

We had a great trip with James. He showed us all around and Bondi Beach was beautiful. Definitely recommend.

Great Experience

Esther_B, Jan 2024

Our group of 8 enjoyed a lovely tour of the city. We were picked up at the airport upon arrival in Sydney and enjoyed seeing the city highlights. We had a delicious lunch as well. Mike was an excellent guide and this was a great way to start our visit. I do suggest keeping water for guest as it was a warm day and this was mentioned as an inclusion. Otherwise great tour— recommend

Response from Host, Feb 2024

Thank you Esther for your great review. It was my pleasure to share my favourite Sydney City vistas with your fun group. Mike

Best way to land in Sydney

trishabailey, Jan 2024

What a great experience! Definitely, the best way to get familiar with Sydney, especially after an overnight flight. Mike was flexible with our arrival time, as our flight was late. Picked us up. Showed us around. Easy to communicate with. We covered a lot of land and had a nice lunch with a great view - even in the rain. Highly recommend this tour! We saw many parts of Sydney we'd never find on our own.

Response from Host, Jan 2024

Thank you Trish for this fantastic review. I'm delighted I could help you get to know wonderful Sydney on your first day downunder :) Cheers, Mike

It was a really hot day...

patty_m, Dec 2023

It was a really hot day to be fair. But I was disappointed that my tour operator was changed three times. So we didn’t expect much. He was a really nice guy but more of a driver vs tour guide. Our group of 6 had a hard time understanding him. We did see a lot.

Response from Host, Jan 2024

Thank you Patty for your feedback. I am glad you that you liked your tour guide for the Sydney City , Harbour & Bondi Tour. Unfortunately I was no available on that day, and I am sorry that you didn't get the guiding that you expected. It was a record really hot day for Sydney in December, but it was nice to hear that you saw a lot. I hope you get to visit Sydney again. Thank You, Mike

Take the hop on hop off tour instead!

Linda_B, Dec 2023

The views of the city. We went to several locations in Sydney to see the view but after 3-4 stops to see the view, that was plenty. Way too many view stops and not enough background knowledge of the city. He only answered our questions but rarely did he provide commentary as we were touring around. Nice guy but not tour worth the price point.

Response from Host, Dec 2023

Hi Linda, I am sorry to hear you didn't enjoy the views of Sydney Harbour and the beaches. It was a big surprise to hear your feedback, as this is tour that is private, and is chiefly a scenic tour of our very beautiful city and i try to give some great local knowledge too. I hope that you are able to visit Sydney again. Thank You, Mike

Perfect Tour

Ryan_S, Jul 2023

We had the absolute best time! Our guide Marc was wonderful. He catered the tour around us and our needs and showed us places in the city we didn't know existed.

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Thanks Ryan, that is fantastic to hear that Marc looked after you all so very well, on our Sydney City, Harbour and Bondi Beach Tour :) Mike

Fantastic City of Sydney Tour

Shawn_K, Apr 2023

James was amazing and we enjoyed touring Sydney with him. He has a wealth of knowledge and we got to see parts of Sydney that we would not be able to see on our own. I would recommend James and Go Beyond Tours for you next visit to Australia! Thank you again James for the wonderful tour!

Response from Host, Apr 2023

Thank you Shawn for your fantastic review. I am delighted James gave you an amazing Sydney experience. Mike

All Over Sydney in a day!

Joshua_G, Apr 2023

Awesome tour. I highly highly recommend. We got to see so much of Sydney and really learn about the city. I'm so happy my son and I got to experience this tour and see a lot of Sydney highlights!

Response from Host, Apr 2023

Thanks for the great review and I am very happy you enjoyed your Sydney City, Harbour and Bondi Tour with James.

Amazing tour around Sydney with Mike

Svetlana_D, Mar 2022

This tour was an absolutely amazing experience for both me and my mother. Our guide was Mike and thanks to him we got the unforgettable sense of this magnificent Sydney. He also shared very interesting historical facts about all points that we visited. We are from Vancouver, beautiful British Columbia, and I've always thought that it's impossible to impress somebody from this part of the world, but this tour proved that I am wrong. Thanks to Mike's professionalism and experience, we were able to see this city from different geographic perspectives. We visited the most prominent points with breathtaking views, amazing neighborhoods and areas, which would not be reachable otherwise. Thanks again to Mike and Viator for this wonderful time. I strongly recommend this tour to anybody who are lucky to come to this spectacular city.

Response from Host, Mar 2022

Thank you very much Svetlana for your wonderful review, it was a pleasure sharing some of my favourite locations around Sydney City, the Harbour and Bondi Beach plus a few more too! I hope you come back from Canada soon to visit beautiful Sydney again. All the best, Mike
