          Excellent Sydney city tour
          We had a fantastic tour with Charlie. Saw all the places you see pictures of and read about, plus many hidden gems that only a local might know to show you. We would recommend this tour as a great beginning overview to your time in Sydney.

          Knowledgeable, flexible, fantastic tour
          Fantastic trip, highly recommend it. Our guide, Dave, was very knowledgeable and set up a great trip for us. He was super flexible, giving us several options. We chose to take a 3-hour hike down into the valley/canyon and experience the forest. We would definitely tour with him again!

          Best of the Blue Mountains!
          Big applause and appreciation for our guide, Charlie, who led us on a memorable private tour of the Blue Mountains from Sydney. We opted for this adventure over our cruise ship’s excursion offerings, and it was clearly a smart decision. We took short hikes into beautiful areas we never would have seen on the ship tour and avoided the tourist traps and large groups. Our band of six loved wandering in search of wild kangaroos and wallabies, and we were not disappointed. Even a misty rain didn’t dampen our spirits as we saw lovely waterfalls and explored under-cliff wonders. We also enjoyed visiting the lovely town of Leura where Charlie introduced us to an amazing art gallery showcasing original woodworks. All in all, a fantastic day!

          Best ever wine tour
          We did a full day private wine tour of Hunters Valley. We cannot speak highly enough of the trip, the 3 wineries and lunch at Molines were all outstanding. Scott was a fantastic guide, very knowledgeable and friendly. If you want the best guide and wineries this is the way to go

          Outstanding tour and guide, private tour was well worth the money
          We did two tours with yoursydneyguide- Royal National Park and Blue Mountains. Both were fantastic. Scott asked about our interests and adjusted based on our answers. We did shorter hikes in the Royal and a longer, most beautiful hike, in Blue Mountains. Featherdale zoo before the Blue Mountains was also wonderful because we saw the animals up close, and fed some. Scott got us to the zoo before the big buses so it was easy to get close. Scott knew the history, the flora, and fauna. We were extremely happy after each day.

          Great day in the Blue Mountains
          Had a fantastic day in the Blue Mountains. The tour guide, Charlie, was a font of local knowledge and was very flexible with the agenda and schedule for the day. He listened to what my wife and I wanted to get out of the day and adjusted the schedule and location’s visited accordingly. The views we saw were amazing. Saw lots of local wildlife, loads of roos which pleased my wife. Through out the day Charlie was very engaging and shared lots of historical facts as well as current local knowledge. We ended the trip with a ferry ride into Sydney harbour and circular quay. Would highly recommended this trip, well worth the money.

          Epic day trip with Charlie to the Blue Mountains
          We had an absolutely epic day trip with Charlie. Charlie is easy-going, knowledgeable, and adventurous. He is also funny and talkative. He understood what we wanted to accomplish and tailored our day trip accordingly. He also blended in his recommendations, based on his extensive knowledge of the Blue Mountains.

          Down in the Blue Mountains
          To appreciate the Blue Mountains, if possible get off the rim and go down into them, the slot canyons. We wouldn’t have known this, hiked where we did w/o Charlie from Get Your Guide. It was a great immersive day rather than seen at a remove. He also added color by adding tidbits about geology, early exploration, flora and fauna. Genial, caring guide and we would happily follow his lead again.

          Excellent tour to Blue Mountains
          We really had a great time with Scott and would like to thank him for extraordinary service and friendlyness. The tour to Blue Mountain was great and we even walked a very nice tour in the valley. This tour is recommended to take. The winery tour was very nice, however, winery tasting was limited to drinking one bottle of the same wine. This could easily be improved because the location was superb. Thank you Scott for making our day so perfect. Sigrid and Klaus from Norway.

          Such a great tour that we had to book another!
          If you’re reading this, look no further! Best private tour we’ve ever had. Scott had something interesting to say about every stop we were at. Truly made our experience personal and we were able to check off so many things in one day. We loved our tour so much that we booked the Blue Mountains tour with him the next day. He gets booked fast so if you see something you want to do, book it NOW! Thanks Scott for making our first trip to Sydney absolutely memorable.

          Fantastic day in the Blue Mountains!!
          Wow, this was such a special day trip from Sydney! Charlie took us all through the Blue Mountains and into the Megalong Valley. Being on a private tour, Charlie tailored the day to what we wanted to see. We felt like we were the only people in the blue mountains that day. He took us so many places that tourists/buses don’t go to. The only time we saw other tourists was at sunset when we viewed the 3 sisters and even that was less crowded than usual. He went above and beyond to find wild kangaroos for us to see and lunch at the tea rooms was phenomenal. He recommended we take the ferry back into Circular Quay and I’m so glad we did - it was a great way to end a beautiful day.

          An amazing tour with the most friendly tour guide. Saw some incredible views and sites whilst learning all about the blue mountains. The hikes we went on were spectacular and fitted well with our walking ability. Definitely would recommend to do when you visit Sydney.

        Scott. He’s a people person with a truly caring perspective. His tour ran us through all the must see/mist do’s around the city. Even AFTER our tour Scott reached out via text to suggest great ideas! Scott’s a wonderful person and that’s evident right away. We spent 6 hours in his company and Bei g a lifelong resident makes him so knowledgeable about Sydney and its ins and outs. He’s helped get us set up for our week of exploring.
        Scott’s tours are primarily self performed, so you’re getting deluxe attention. Thanks Scott!!

        Had a 12 hour layover in Sydney airport and decided I would take a private tour rather than stare at a wall. When Scott picked me up from the airport in the morning he asked if there was anything I wanted to see. I told him that I’ve been to Sydney several times before and was just looking looking to kill some time not in an airport. He asked a couple questions of what I liked to do and things I enjoy seeing and leaning about, then off we went to see the sights and experience Sydney. I saw some of my favorite places from vantage points I would’ve never been able to find on my own. Scott was truly my Australian best friend for a day. Learned a lot about the local history and found some really cool places I have never been to. I will never forget the places we went to and some of the unique sights I saw. I highly recommend this tour as one of the best I’ve ever been on. Oh and the upgrade to the Land Rover was totally worth it.

        We had an amazing day with Scott on our private tour of the city. He picked us up from our hotel and drove us around all day to see every inch of Sydney. He was very professional and accommodating. He cared about what we wanted to see and made sure we were able to do everything we wanted to! He also added thoughtful touches such as booking our reservations for high tea, dinner, etc. Overall amazing experience and will be passing on our tour to friends and family. Best (and easiest) way to see Sydney for sure!

        This is an absolute must do, especially if you are a first time visitor to Sydney. I recommend doing it on day one of your trip. It is the perfect way to get "oriented" to the city. I booked this a couple of weeks ahead of our trip -- super easy to book and Scott replied immediately with a confirmation. Peter was our guide and arrived promptly at our hotel to pick us up in a very nice range rover. We had the best day! He gave us the perfect introduction to Sydney --- history, neighborhoods, historical districts, botany, ecology, etc.-- you name it and he could tell you about it!! I took about 7 pages of notes!!! We had plenty of opportunities to hop out of the car for short walks/photos, so we did not at all feel like we were stuck in a car all day. Peter also knew all of the short cuts through neighborhoods, so traffic was not an issue. He dropped my husband and I off for a delightful lunch in Manly Cove and we then had a nice walk along the beach and then met up to resume the tour for the afternoon. Peter is a delightful person with a wonderful knowledge of Syndey. We thoroughly enjoyed our day and would recommend this tour 100%!!!!

        Scott happened to be our guide for the day-long city tour (he’s also the owner). He’s an excellent guide, very professional & knowledgeable. We truly enjoyed his commentary and personal touch, esp. my teenage kids! This is not an inexpensive option but personally, I would HIGHLY recommend him/his services, if you’re looking for a great experience.

        Charlie is a professional,highly informative, friendly and expert guide!
        All pre-tour planning and email conversations were timely, thorough and satisfying!

        Upon arrival via the Celebrity Edge....our tenders delivered us to the Opera House Wharf much later than scheduled,...and Charlie was there waiting at the turn- around behind Sydney Opera House welcoming us to the city in his very luxurious Range Rover!

        Our day of Discover Sydney began with a bouquet of greetings, smiles and excited anticipation!
        We headed right into The Royal Botanic Gardens where Charlie began sharing with us the history of Sydney....he sprinkled his history lessons with information about the local flora and fauna.....Sitting on Mrs. Macquarie's chair, being amazed at the Merton Bay Figs and the gorgeous and raucous birdlife!!!!! We were enthralled with Charlie's breadth of knowledge and his calm, humorous and tranquil comportment.

        As we drove from place to place, Charles answered our queries about Sydney, Sydney's history, government past & present and drew our attention to the historic architecture and the interesting animal life we passed along the way....we trailed after a Kookabura and watched as it pulled worms from the ground and another Kookabura in a tree "beating a mouse to tenderize it" before eating!!!!!! We were regaled by cockatoos, black swans, ibis, and australian magpies to name but a few!!!

        Our travels took us to and thru The Rocks, Darlinghurst, Moore Park, Woollahra, and to Centennial Park! At Centennial Park Charles brought us on a walk to a huge forest area that was home to thousands of Flying Foxes hanging from trees high up in the canopies! It was magical!!!

        Then on thru Waverly Park, Rose Bay, Vaucluse and to the famous Bondi Beach!!!! Charles gave us time to walk in every location, take pictures, and enjoy the exquisite views....we enjoyed a lovely coffee at one of his favorite cafes ....and throughout our day together Charles was brilliant companion, teacher, guide and friend.

        We could not have been happier with our tour with Charles. Every minute was packed with details and history of the beauty of Sydney and Surrounds...we can surely say that Charles expertly guided us into falling in love with Sydney. Thank You Charles!!!!!

        Next visit....how bout the Blue Mountains, Charles???!!!!!!

        Many thanks! Madelyn and Alex

        I've spent many years traveling and doing side tours in different cities of the world. Hands down - the day we spent with Scott yesterday was the absolute best private tour I have experienced anywhere in the world. Scott was waiting as planned and picked us up @ our hotel. After a get acquainted period - we got into it. All the sights and history explanations from Scott. Lunch @ Manly. Wrapping the day up with a recommended wine tasting @ Handpicked. Scott was personable, knew his history and facts and everything Sydney. I highly recommend you skip all the other tour options and go straight to Scott for your tour needs. Best tour ever! Thanks Scott.

        I can’t recommend this tour enough! I visited Sydney for a week while moving my daughter to Hillsong College from California. We thought we would get a tour to get a glimpse of what Sydney has to offer and I am so glad we did!!! Scott was an amazing tour guide and he will design your tour to what fits your needs, making the best use of your time. He was so friendly, we loved spending the day with him! We could never have seen so much in such a short amount of time if we hadn’t taken this tour!
        We HIGHLY recommend this tour and Scott!!!

        We had the BEST time with Scott exploring Sydney! Our group included 2 grandparents, 2 parents and 2 teen daughters. We very comfortably hopped about the city, exploring many different areas and getting a real understanding of Sydney and all it has to offer.
        Scott was an absolute pleasure to work with. From afar via emails he was responsive to questions and helpful with itinerary planning. In person he is fun, charismatic and delightful and the whole family appreciated his knowledge and sense of humor.
