Tour of Sydney

Michelle_G, Feb 2025

It was a good day with Ben. He was very knowledgeable and showed us all of the sights. Beautiful day in Sydney!

Response from Host, Feb 2025

Hi Michelle and Michael, Was lovely meeting you both on a glorious Sydney day and hope to meet you both for a future tour. Kindest regards, Ben Barry

Great way to see Sydney in a day

Gregory_E, Feb 2025

Wonderful way to see the highlights of Sydney with Ben who was an exceptional tour guide. There was an excellent balance between driving through parts of the city and walking through parks and beaches. Tour guides make the day and Ben sure made ours, funny, knowledgeable, very informative, we spent a very enjoyable day with him. I would highly recommend this tour anyone who wants to see the highlights of Sydney in a day. Thank you Ben for a great day.

Response from Host, Feb 2025

Hi Greg, Thanks for your wonderful words and glad that you have a fun time and loved the balance of the tour. I hope we can meet again one day. Regards, Ben

We had an amazing day...

Traci_G, Dec 2024

We had an amazing day with Ben. He is very friendly and knowledgeable. We were able to see some beautiful places and get photos. We’d definitely recommend Ben and his tour. Thank you!

Response from Host, Dec 2024

Hi Traci and Joe, Was lovely to meet you both on a blustering wind swept day of Sydney's sights and coastline. Sorry about the whipping wind, it's not normally like that lol. I'll see you both this Saturday for a tour of the delightful Blue Mountains. Regards, Ben

A Must Do, and Do It With Ben

Perry_S, Dec 2023

This was a fantastic full day tour of Sydney. We got to see all of the must see sights (Harbor Bridge, Opera House, Bondi Beach, etc.) plus a lot of different areas of the city, and learned a lot about all of these sights/areas. Our tour guide, Ben, was outstanding——-knowledgeable, personable, accommodating, and a lot of fun to be with. Overall, this private tour was good value for money———-don’t miss it and absolutely do it with Ben!

Response from Host, Jan 2024

Hi Perry, Thanks again for the memorable day with you both. Yes it's definitely amazing value for money when seeing and visiting and immersing into so many incredible places. Come and visit again! Ben

A great way to see lots of Sydney

Sam_B, Apr 2023

We had a great time exploring Sydney with Ben, who offered us the chance to flex the day around our preferences and what we wanted to see. We had a good balance of guided time and a chance to explore some of the areas on our own. Ben is clearly passionate about Sydney and knows lots about the area. As we were only in Sydney for a short while we found this was a great way to see lots of the sights, including the beaches. We left with plenty of recommendations of other places to see but most of those will have to wait until next time!

Response from Host, Apr 2023

Hi Sam, Thanks for your words and be great to show you some more areas as discussed. Being a personalised tour I'm happy that you enjoyed the flexibility of your time with me. Sydney is quite spectacular and offers so many incredible scenic areas to discover. Hope to catch up again. Regards, Ben

Outstanding Guide and tour experience!

RichardHenley, Mar 2023

Ben was an exceptional tour guide. He had the tour all mapped out to enable us to see the major points of interest in the city and have some time to walk and enjoy the scenery. He has excellent knowledge of the history of the city and the settlers. Sydney and the surrounding areas are nothing short of beautiful. The beaches, the surf, the parks, the opera house, the wildlife (except the bats!) are not to be missed and you will come away with a lot of the history of the city. Thank you Ben for a great day!

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Hi Richard and Susie, What a jam packed day we had - so many sights and hidden local secrets. Plus my favourite wildlife spotting - bats, bat and more bats lol! Hope to meet you both again one day. Regards, Ben Barry

Canceled and notification was never received.

LINDA_M, Jan 2023

The tour was canceled and notification was not recieved. Flight arrived early. An email was sent to the guide notifying them of the early arrival. It took the guide an hour to reply with the cancelation notification. Therefore, I was waiting at the airport for two hour when I could have been making alternate arraingments.

Response from Host, Jan 2023

Hi Linda, My sincerest of apologies. I had thought I had cancelled our tour together but this was not the case. Sorry for any inconvenience caused. I reached out to two other guides when I received your email but they were unavailable at short notice. Again, sorry for any inconvenience. Please email me directly to arrange a credit for another tour whilst you're in Sydney. Kindest Regards, Ben Barry ben@personalisedsydneytours.com
