My tour guide was awesome! Knowledgeable and so kind! I enjoy the beers and the tour. I wish there was a sheet with pictures to support the conversation. I felt the urge to look things up on google to see who and where my guide was referring. Again, great tour!

This was a fun, easy walking tour with Jackson, our knowledgeable and personable guide. We enjoyed delicious Australian craft beers and ended our tour with the included meal.. the pizza was really good!

My adult daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour led by Dave! We didn’t know a lot about Sydney or Australia’s history and we left have learned so much while being surrounded by the history of the pubs we visited. Lots of knowledge gained and delicious beers tied to the stories along the way. We couldn’t have imagined a better evening. She is not a big beer lover and there were ciders available which she enjoyed. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us!

Jackson was knowledgeable, involved, and could tell he likes his job! Very personable! I went back to a couple of the same bars (“hotels”) the next day because the beers and atmospheres were cool. Definitely try the Flamingo Pink Lemonade Sour beer at Harts Pub if you like sours! Incredibly delicious!!

Our guide was funny and very knowledgeable. We couldn’t drink all the beer but tried anyway! We were in a group of nine, a very manageable number.

Lot’s of laughs and history through story telling. Met a group of great fun people from the USA, Canada, and of course native Australians. Every country was well represented. Dave our guide was amazing! If you like visiting pubs and stories this is a must do experience.

This experience was a blast! We got to walk around The Rocks region and learn about how Australia started, while getting to taste some really good beer. You’d definitely want to do this Pub Crawl if you want to learn about more about Australia in bar setting.
