          Best day of our trip!
          Scott was knowledgeable and helpful. Having the option to spend extra time in places (like stopping for chocolate and ice cream in Leura or spending extra time feeding kangaroos) made the private tour the best option for us. Would do again and would highly recommend to others.

          Amazing Day
          What a wonderful day we had with Scott. He was so great showing us the animals at Featherdale and took great pictures and videos there and at the Blue Mountains. You should book any of his tours.

          Fantastic private tour interacting with animals and viewing the Blue Mountains.
          We had a great time at Featherdale viewing and interacting with the animals. The Blue Mountains are beautiful! We also went to other wonderful viewpoints. Scenic World also has beautiful views. Riding the train and cable cars was an added bonus. Our guide was very friendly and informative. We are very glad we chose to do a private tour with just the two of us.

          Best Blue Mountains tour possible!
          This was an amazing tour. Everything was beautiful and completely worth going. You couldn't ask for a better tour guide than Scott. He knew his stuff, was super friendly, and knew all the little ins and outs of the tour to make the most of it. This is a fully inclusive price, Scott even bought our lunch at a great bakery. Never had a tour guide actual buy our lunch before.

          Great private day tour
          My husband and I had a fabulous day with Scott! We went to the Blue Mountains and Featherdale and a few other stops. I loved feeding the kangaroos and have a picture with a koala. He also took the lead when we were in the Blue Mountains so he would see a snake first because I hate snakes. Luckily, we didn't see any! He took us to a small town restaurant that had the best meat pies! The town also had a chocolate shop that's worth the stop! He is very knowledgeable and entertaining. This is a small business so it doesn't have the volume of reviews but I highly recommend them over a big group tour. Thanks Scott for a memorable day!

          BEST Blue Mountains Tour!
          Scott was an EXCELLENT tour guide! He really made our day very enjoyable. He first took us to a great picture point of the Sydney Opera House and Bridge in the morning that we hadn't heard of. He gave us some great insight about Sydney and the sights we say throughout the day. He went above and beyond and helped guide us through Featherdale Wildlife park - he got us food for the kangaroos, gave us information about all the animals, took pictures and videos of us feeding and interacting with the animals. He took us to a great lunch spot which had delicious meat pies! We then went to Scenic World and saw amazing views of Three Sisters and other rock formations. He even took us to one of Sydney's Oldest Pubs at the end of the day - the Hero at Waterloo. We really enjoyed this tour and Scott made it even better! Definitely worth the price for what you get!!

          Outstanding tour
          What an amazing day with Scott!!! He greeted us at our hotel and we quickly were quickly made comfortable. Scott’s knowledge of Australia was fantastic. Our tour of the Blue Mountains and Featherdale could not have been more enjoyable. He was also the photographer so we could really enjoy the sights. I HIGHLY recommend booking with him as not only was he knowledge, he was so kind and made our journey spectacular.

          Amazing Day trip around Sydney and the Blue Mountains
          This was a amazing day trip. Starting with being picked up at the cruise terminal by Scott. After showing us around Sydney we were off to the Featherdale Wildlife Park. It is a must see for the different animals. It was an unexpected treat to have food for the Kangaroos and having our picture taken with a koala. Then off to the Blue Mountains. We were amazed of all that was included in the tour including food to feed the animals, pictures with a Koala, lunch and all the entrance fees in the Blue Mountains. Scott even took amazing photos and videos of the trip. Overall the trip was exceptional and we highly recommend it.

          Perfect Day in the Blue Mountains
          What a fantastic tour of the Blue Mountains! The trip started off with a pickup at the doorstep of our hotel in a spacious comfortable SUV. We got a brief tour around Sydney with stops for pictures and some history. Next we spent some time Featherdale Animal Park feeding Kangaroos and seeing some great animals. Next, we stopped at some ridge points that gave us perfect views of the Blue Mountains and great photos. After a quick lunch we were off to Scenic World to ride gondola cars and take in panoramic shots. This tour is a MUST DO in Sydney, as Scott was the ultimate host/guide.

          Memorable private tour with knowledgeable local
          Scott was fantastic! From the time he picked us up to the time he dropped us off, he was professional, accommodating, and eager to share his love of Sydney with us. He’s a an attentive driver; we always felt safe in his car and with him driving. He took great care to take us to fantastic scenic spots to see different views and perspectives, including the harbor bridge, opera house, skyline, beaches, navy base, historic buildings, and more. We had a delicious lunch at Bondi Beach and enjoyed a courtesy drink at 1 of 4 “oldest” pubs in Sydney. Scott shared so much history, culture, stories, and experiences with us during our day. Thank you for sharing Sydney with us.

          An excellent day out
          Scott was an absolutely fantastic host for this trip. For a 32C spring day we certainly had summer sun and the water provided certainly came in handy. Everything ran extremely smoothly and the contact made the night before about possible changes due to city closures was appreciated. This is a very large city and this tour was a great way to get oriented, especially, if like me, it's your first time in the area. I learned a lot from Scott - from the history of the area to fun little tid bits about certain buildings he is clearly very knowledgeable. I didn't have any particular sites I wanted to see more than others but the option to customise the day was always there. I can be a bit weary of doing solo private tours but Scott was fun and personable which really made the day go by quickly. The SUV was clean and comfortable and I felt right at home hopping in and out all day. Truly a pleasure! (Bring a hat, that sun is rough)

          Outstanding Private Tour
          Scott was an excellent tour guide. A native Sydney sider, he knows where all of the best vantage points are around the city for photos of the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge. He is also a compelling story teller and provided us with many stories about life in Sydney. The drive up to the Blue Mountains was interesting and the stop at the Featherdale Animal park was a lot of fun and included feeding the animals. His vehicle was very comfortable and roomy. The day was most enjoyable and all of our expectations were exceeded. We highly recommend Scott and Sydney Private Tours.

        My day was perfect today.
        This company exceeded my expectations...
        Scott with Private Day Tours picked me up at the hotel as scheduled.
        Private tour for just myself.
        We took off for multiple beach tours/ small towns and great lunch spot!
        Scott was full of history, facts and fun stories.
        I can't wait to introduce/ refer him to my clients coming to Sydney. I am sure they will be taken great care of.

        I had the pleasure of having a private tour of the lovely northern beaches with Sydney Private Day Tours. They were absolutely professional from the first contact on. I was traveling alone for business and wanted to see as much as I could, so I had many questions, which were all answered promptly. The tour was smooth and allowed for my input as well as time at extra places due to it being private. The ride was waiting for me the morning of the tour and the entire day was smooth and relaxing. John was a wonderful guide and made me feel very comfortable. The trip ended with the tour company giving ME a gift, along with many of the best photos and moments from the trip. Highly recommend.
