As an Australian I thought I knew this city but I can truly say that before this tour with Scott I had not seen many of the spots he took us to. Scott explained the history of this amazing city and its surrounds along with many other points of interest as to the spots we were taken to .
What makes a great tour guide is passion , knowledge , inspiration and preparation and the ability to read his clients as to when times to be accompanied and left to our own devices .,Scott listened to our requirements and ticked every box and some special surprises were thrown in . Thanks Scott for the great pie shop , you were right that pie was the best .
Whether it be a great famous pie or a top restaurant suggestion to the hidden spots with great views Scott had it all .
Your personal touch made us miss you and your great city which you know so well .
Thanks very much to the team at Your Sydney Guide and thanks Scott .
Easy 2+ hr trip to and from Sydney.
Deserve 5+ stars.
The tour can be personalized to your taste.
Through out the day Charlie was very engaging and shared lots of historical facts as well as current local knowledge. We ended the trip with a ferry ride into Sydney harbour and circular quay.
Would highly recommended this trip, well worth the money.
I would recommend this company 100%
All pre-tour planning and email conversations were timely, thorough and satisfying!
Upon arrival via the Celebrity Edge .our tenders delivered us to the Opera House Wharf much later than scheduled, and Charlie was there waiting at the turn- around behind Sydney Opera House welcoming us to the city in his very luxurious Range Rover!
Our day of Discover Sydney began with a bouquet of greetings, smiles and excited anticipation!
We headed right into The Royal Botanic Gardens where Charlie began sharing with us the history of Sydney .he sprinkled his history lessons with information about the local flora and fauna ..Sitting on Mrs. Macquarie's chair, being amazed at the Merton Bay Figs and the gorgeous and raucous birdlife!!!!! We were enthralled with Charlie's breadth of knowledge and his calm, humorous and tranquil comportment.
As we drove from place to place, Charles answered our queries about Sydney, Sydney's history, government past & present and drew our attention to the historic architecture and the interesting animal life we passed along the way .we trailed after a Kookabura and watched as it pulled worms from the ground and another Kookabura in a tree "beating a mouse to tenderize it" before eating!!!!!! We were regaled by cockatoos, black swans, ibis, and australian magpies to name but a few!!!
Our travels took us to and thru The Rocks, Darlinghurst, Moore Park, Woollahra, and to Centennial Park! At Centennial Park Charles brought us on a walk to a huge forest area that was home to thousands of Flying Foxes hanging from trees high up in the canopies! It was magical!!!
Then on thru Waverly Park, Rose Bay, Vaucluse and to the famous Bondi Beach!!!! Charles gave us time to walk in every location, take pictures, and enjoy the exquisite views .we enjoyed a lovely coffee at one of his favorite cafes .and throughout our day together Charles was brilliant companion, teacher, guide and friend.
We could not have been happier with our tour with Charles. Every minute was packed with details and history of the beauty of Sydney and Surrounds we can surely say that Charles expertly guided us into falling in love with Sydney. Thank You Charles!!!!!
Next visit .how bout the Blue Mountains, Charles???!!!!!!
Many thanks! Madelyn and Alex
It was even his birthday on one of the days he was with us.
He was our close friend that we finally got to meet again and reconnected with for our first visit to Sydney; that's how it was having the tours with Charlie. We were comfortable in his vehicle and he assisted us all the way had a wheelchair with us. Loved that he had an itinerary planned and ran it with us to align both our expectations. Got to see many hidden gems on both places and shared a good amount of stories that really will stay with us.
We also got to meet Scott on one of the tours, he is also an awesome guy.
Your Sydney Guide, the easiest recommend for Private Tours in Sydney, no other choice.
Great way to see and learn about Sydney. Would highly recommend Scott and his services!
So knowledgeable. After taking the time to get to note us, he tailored the day exactly to what we wanted to see.
We stopped in lots of smaller villages and lookouts, and saw more of Sydney and the Blue Mountains than we imagined.
I’ll be recommending this tour to everyone who comes to Sydney.
The vehicle for the day was very comfortable and the air con was much needed since it was extremely hot out. The provided water certainly came in handy.
Scott certainly has eagle eyes, pointing out wildlife and even pulling over so we could watch a whale breaching while on the way to one of the parks. The views are stunning.
With having gone on a Monday many businesses are closed but it never felt like I was missing out on anything. Lunch was delicious and the wines were great.
No part of the drive was boring or uncomfortable. Scott is fun to chat with and knows a lot about the history of the area. More than enough stops if you need the toilet as well if that's something you need to think about.
If I am back in Sydney, I will certainly be looking up another tour.
A true “local,” Scott was extremely knowledgeable and informative about everything we could think of. To our surprise, we bumped into him the next day at a water ferry terminal!
If this is your first trip to Sydney, I would strongly encourage booking a tour with this outfit!
Lunch was at a place called Little Beach Boathouse by the seaside at Nelson's Bay. The weather was perfect and we saw a dolphin or two go by. Service at this restaurant was excellent.
Thanks once again, Scott for never letting us down. Trips with you is money's worth.
We went with Scott when we were at Sydney last year (2022) and it was a no-brainer going again with him on this tour as well as the one to Port Stephens. Thanks, Scott for being a great and friendly guide. The 6 of us always enjoyed our comfortable ride in your Land Rover Discovery. We would never have seen or enjoyed the food at the places you took us to.
The Blue Mountains tour itself was very personalized and very detailed - we really felt they knew the blue mountains in very high detail. The effort put stood out for us - be it in spotting wild Kangaroos, going to an out-of-mainstream lunch spot, or helping us out with vegetarian food. Aside from covering the well-known attractions like the three sisters, we actually saw 26 wild Kangaroos and one wild Wallabee, not to mention many indigenous birds, on this tour!!
The cricket lover's tour - which is found on their website - was the highlight for us on our Australia trip. It included a private tour of the Sydney Cricket Ground - just us and Peter - and the Bradman Museum at Bowral. While the locations themselves are amazing, Peter who accompanied us is a genuine cricket fan and knows both the sport and the locations in detail - this passion really made a difference for us. He also went the extra mile in covering the history of Sydney city itself, and found an amazing lunch spot with vegetarian options for us!
Thanks for everything, folks!
Scott’s tours are primarily self performed, so you’re getting deluxe attention. Thanks Scott!!
The highlight of our tour was hiking Empress Falls. This is a moderate hike with steep stairs. The entire hike was pretty much stairs. We didn’t mind it because at every turn was an incredible breathtaking view. This may not be the hike for you if you’re not in good shape. The hike back to the top would not be fun if you’re not somewhat fit.
Scott was delightful! My teenage kids said he was the best tour guide we’ve ever had and we’ve gone to countless tours in different cities and countries. Touring with Scott was more like a local friend showing you around as opposed to a tour guide you just hired. I guarantee you will not regret booking with Scott. I would definitely recommend him for anyone heading to Sydney.
