This was a last minute...
This was a last minute booking but one of the best tours that I’ve been on. Sean was highly knowledgeable, so we learned a lot. I highly recommend this tour to others visiting Sydney for the first time.

Wonderful tour with a concert at night
We love the tour, learned the history of the Opera House, saw inside, and the same night we also saw Peter Bence in its concert hall。they gave us discounted concert tickets because of our booked tour.

Great combo
Easy booking. I was also to book cdates and timeslots for remaining 3 events after booking confirmation. Hassle-free adventure.

Fantastic Tour which a guide who made it fun
very informative and fun. having the headsets is great as you can hear the guide so clearly- our guide was Michael who was brilliant. the main Concert Hall is amazing.

Tourists will enjoy it
The tour only takes you through the public theatres. Nothing “behind the scenes” which was a disappointment to me
