We loved our day tour! Our guide, Karen, is fantastic! She is Sydney born and raised and led Sydney Harbor Bridge climbs for 3 years. She is a very good driver and treats all guests with respect. Packs in a lot of scenery and activities in one day with sufficient time for breaks, shopping and lunch!

The scenery at the Blue Mts was amazing! We got to see so much and the rides at Scenic World were a special extra. Feeding the kangaroos and pictures with the Koalas at the zoo was fun. The ferry cruise back to town topped it all off to make a perfect day.

Unreal day from start to finish, Bruce went above and beyond making sure everything ran smoothly, great guide and a great guy 👍🏼. Went by myself but made amazing friends along the way. Best day I have had in Sydney 👏🏼.
