Private Sydney city, harbour and Bondi tour with airport or cruise transfers, a comfy A/C van, and smart photo stops in just 5 hours.
“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.”
