Scott was fantastic! From the time he picked us up to the time he dropped us off, he was professional, accommodating, and eager to share his love of Sydney with us. He’s a an attentive driver; we always felt safe in his car and with him driving. He took great care to take us to fantastic scenic spots to see different views and perspectives, including the harbor bridge, opera house, skyline, beaches, navy base, historic buildings, and more. We had a delicious lunch at Bondi Beach and enjoyed a courtesy drink at 1 of 4 “oldest” pubs in Sydney. Scott shared so much history, culture, stories, and experiences with us during our day. Thank you for sharing Sydney with us.

Scott was an absolutely fantastic host for this trip. For a 32C spring day we certainly had summer sun and the water provided certainly came in handy. Everything ran extremely smoothly and the contact made the night before about possible changes due to city closures was appreciated. This is a very large city and this tour was a great way to get oriented, especially, if like me, it's your first time in the area. I learned a lot from Scott - from the history of the area to fun little tid bits about certain buildings he is clearly very knowledgeable. I didn't have any particular sites I wanted to see more than others but the option to customise the day was always there. I can be a bit weary of doing solo private tours but Scott was fun and personable which really made the day go by quickly. The SUV was clean and comfortable and I felt right at home hopping in and out all day. Truly a pleasure! (Bring a hat, that sun is rough)

Scott was our guide for both the Sydney Tour and the Blue Mountain tour. I highly recommend it, Scott is a very nice person to talk to, knowledgeable and professional. He is very passionate as well, will take you to great spots and help avoid crowded places. His wife Julia helped us all the way through the booking, always available to answer any question. Thank you Scott & Julia, you made our trip unforgettable.

Scott was great. Very knowledgeable of Sydney and we went to places you will not find in large bus tours. He was accommodating to our request and made sure we were all (three couples with different interest) happy with the tour. He took great pictures that he sent to us and ended with a great drink at Sydney’s oldest tavern. He was on time and we never felt rushed and was flexible to make sure we saw the items on our most see list. If you are doing this tour you should request Scott!

This being my dream vacation I wanted to see and experience more than just what I could find online. So booking a private tour was a good idea right? With SPDT and Julia I can say ABSOLUTELY YES! Julia arrived on time at our hotel in an impeccably clean suv that was spacious and comfortable. We immediately requested coffee and she graciously accommodated our caffeine needs. 🙂 We then proceeded on the drive/walk tour of basically everywhere such as Kings Crossing, North and South Points, Bondi and Manly Beach's and much more from local private spots to other tourist spots. We didn't go to the Opera House on OUR request because the night before we already had done a tour/dinner/Opera (Carmen). Julia was both knowledgeable of the history and roads (seemingly knowing all small side roads regardless of area. Impressive in such a large metro area) and culture and social places of the greater Sydney area. Besides the awesome tour Julia was an absolute pleasure to spend the day with and we had such fun listening and sharing life stories as we spent the day taking in the city. I know people value reviews and some times the glowing ones come off artificial, all I can say is this is my bucket list vacation and I could not have asked for a better private tour. Thank you so much personally Julia for the tour and we wish you and SPDT nothing but the very best!

Before boarding our cruise in the port of Sydney, we booked a day tour. It was very good! We got to see quite a bit of Sydney and surrounding area. Had a lovely lunch in Bondi Beach. A tour ending beer at the oldest tavern in Sydney. Our tour guide was excellent. Very informative and fun to talk with. Only two things and I think if I had thought to ask, he would have accommodated us. We didn’t get out of van at Opera house to walk around. Just quickly drove by. Secondly, we didn’t make any stops downtown. Feel like we missed a lot just driving through. But, like I said: I didn’t ask. Next time I will do my home work and consult on the itinerary. All in all , our experience was great and we would recommend Sydney Private Day Tours!

If you want a personalized tour of Sydney, this is it! Not only does Scott take you to Sydney's iconic spots, he will also show you some local spots, which have some of the best views of the city, or the beaches. For a first timer in Sydney, I'm glad I took this tour, and highly recommend you as do as well, to get a good layout of the city and then explore it on your own afterwards.

We had booked a Blue Mountains tour with Scott and were promptly refunded our money as soon as it became evident that the tour would have to be cancelled because of fires that had spread into the area. I especially wanted to visit the Featherdale Wildlife Park and asked if we could combine that with the Sydney tour. Scott accommodated this request, and we had a great day exploring Sydney. In addition to the animal park, Scott showed us Sydney's iconic sights as well as several of it's diverse neighborhoods. He was waiting for us at the cruise terminal when our ship arrived and tailored the entire day according to our preferences. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience in Sydney and left with a very positive view of this beautiful city.

Another great day spent with Scott (I also done the night tour the previous evening). I visited everywhere that was on my list - my favourite being Bondi beach of course! Scott was so patient with me whilst I spent way to long in a shop trying on Bondi wear and trying to decide on souvenirs for the family. He was also so very patient with me requesting photos to be taken, which I now have plenty to choose from and many still to sort through haha. A private tour provides so much more flexibility, no rushing back to the coach or waiting for others - it was completely my time and I held the reins as such. Scott let me completely take control of where we went and how long we stayed. Amazing experience and most definitely something that everyone needs to experience. Thank you again Scott :)
