Latest reviews from our guests

    We walked around Sydney visiting many sites that I never would have seen on my own. Ania had great knowledge of the city and its history. She was very personable and a lot of fun. The 6 hour tour was the right length to see many sites and take in some of the Australian culture. She also gave me many suggestions for things to do on my own. Overall wonderful experience.

    What a perfect way to begin our first trip to Sydney! John C was quick to reach out with an intro and communicate about our interests and private walking tour. We saw, we learned, we walked, talked and laughed. Not only were we able to learn about this amazing city from a wonderful local pro, we were able to easily acclimate for our week + visit so that we could make the most of our trip, commute easily via walking, ferry or metro with confidence. Highly recommend!
