Steve (Guide) was so nice! It was really helpful tour. Everyone should experience Morning tour! It was so fantastic!

Linsydneyoperahouse

it was a fun and engaging tour! I managed to learn a lot today. I like how you try to link various parts of the tour to portray a holistic story of the history of circular Quay. The in depth knowledge of Macquarie was also interesting, and is especially engaging for audiences as a leitmotif. Thank you for the wonderful tour!
