The half day tour with Vic was great. It was a private tour that we booked at the last minute and we had 4 or 5 stops for photos and saw many different neighborhoods in Sydney including the first settlers homes, the red light area, and multi million dollar new homes. Vic provided a running commentary that was very informative. A very good afternoon

Everyone at this company was wonderful and communicative. Brendan was trusting and friendly. He customized our Sydney tour and was incredibly informative. He also turned around at the airport to bring us a forgotten item in the car. Will definitely call them when we return to Sydney!

First of all I cannot say enough good things about our guide Bettina-she was wonderful! We had never been to Sydney before and only had the day to see as much as we could of Sydney. We asked her to show us the best highlights in the time given and she delivered! The communications were excellent, the vehicle comfortable and all for a reasonable price! We highly recommend Runaway Tours!
