My daughters and I enjoyed the experience and appreciated all of the insights and info we learned. TY!

We had a great time on the walking tour with Wonder Momma! We spent about 3 hours waking around Oxford street as she told us the history behind this fabulous street. So informational & like nothing we’ve ever done before! Wonder Momma is a great guide with all the LGBT+ history as well as providing jokes along the way! We got to go into a leather shop (first time for both of us & not something we would have done on our own!) and went to the local bookshop where our guide has published her own children’s book! She even personalized it for us to keep! Overall, a must do in Sydney! Highly recommend!

Great activity. WonderMama knew everyone and the history of every building. They made sure to stop at places and give us the background of each building and the surrounding areas. One of my favorite events in Sydney.

What a great tour! We had a fun time and learned so much. Going in to local businesses and learning about the recent changes was interesting as well. The waffle at the end was a delight as well. Definitely worth it!

Wonder Mama was an informed and generous hostess. There was plenty of history past present and future as well as recommendations for places to eat drink and have fun. Highly recommended.

Wonder no more with Wonder Mama’s walking tour! I’ve been to Sydney a few times and was visiting with friends coming to Sydney for the first time. We all thoroughly enjoyed the tour, humor, history, and experience. This will be a must do for my future guests wanting to experience what Sydney has to offer. Listen to the streets of Oxford talk through Wonder Mama’s vast knowledge and history over the years. I was most impressed !

Wonder Mama was a delight on our tour of LGBTQ Sydney! I am honestly pleasantly surprised with how substantial this tour is. The amount of stops and information that she had along with slideshows on her iPad were quite impressive. Wonder Mama was knowledgeable and personable from start to finish! So much history! We stopped at a couple exclusive gay owned shops. Plenty of photo opportunities including our favorite one with Wonder Mama at the Rainbow Cross Walk! Do NOT miss this tour, it was well worth the time and money.

We had a fabulous time with Wonder Mama. She walked us through theOxford street and was able to tell us all the gay history of the area. She is amazingly knowledgeable and friendly!

The tour by Wonder Mama was a highlight of this visit. I have been to Sydney twice before and learned so much history of our LGBTQ+ community from her. The tour went through more areas than I expected but the walk was very easy and at a comfortable pace, even in the sun and heat. The tour is for everyone so don’t be shy about signing up.

Highly recommend Wonder Mama’s tour! It was very enjoyable for my wife who had lived in Sydney and myself who was a first time visitor. The delivery of serious history over the course of a fun and enjoyable walk through town was perfect. Our only regret is that we don’t have enough time to join one of Wonder Mama’s Drink & Draw classes while we are in town this time.
