Night Bus Tour - This trip is awesome. Buy it in conjunction with a day tour as you get it cheaper. Our tour guide, sorry not sure of her name she was extremely knowledgeable of Sydney. We really enjoyed it. Highly recommend the night tour. The bus driver was also great. The bus was full. Really worthwhile.

Wonderful & novel experience for the family - Seeing Sydney from an open top bus is a wonderful experience, especially for the kids! They enjoyed waving to people on the street and seeing the bats. Our guide Stephen had such a vast amount of information from historical facts to interesting characters that make up Sydney. Never a dull moment! Seeing the underside of the Harbour Bridge was fabulous as were the photo opportunities available.

Highly recommended! - I booked this tour at the last moment, and didn't regret it. Top driver, friendly and knowledgeable guide, and the photo opportunities were excellent. Well worth the money!
Earphones are provided for the commentary, and you can take these with you afterward if you wish.
Do be aware that if it does start to rain, you can't move from the upper to the lower deck while the bus is in motion, so if the skies threaten moisture, as they did on my tour, plan accordingly. Thankfully, there were only a few sprinkles here & there :)

Quick but quality! - Justn and Jo - a very great duo! They made our quick stay in Sydney informative and meaningful. They didn't give up on our tour despite the gloomy weather. Glad it wasn't a downpour. No matter how many time they already did the tour, they didn't sacrifice the quality. 5 stars for both of them!

Fun tour - A special shoutout goes to our tour guide, Jo, whose energy and knowledge brought the city to life. Her commentary was the perfect blend of historical insight, fun facts, and local tips that made the journey feel both educational and entertaining. You could tell she's passionate about Sydney, and that enthusiasm was contagious. Shoutout goes to our driver Justin — Navigating the city streets with such smoothness and professionalism. From iconic landmarks like the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge to lesser-known gems tucked around the city, this tour was the perfect way to take in the sights. Whether you're new to Sydney or revisiting, it's a must-do. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Sydney by Twilight - Watch out for the bats - This was a last minute booking on the advice of the wonderful lady at the Big Bus stand at Circular Quay and I am so glad I took her advice. We were a small select group that met at Big Bus Stop no1 in George Street, but we got to have a bird's eye view of Sydney. Stephen the tour guide was very knowledgeable from start to finish and he made the history of Sydney come to life, we were lucky enough to see the bats coming down from their roosts in the Botanical Gardens.
I can definitely recommend this tour.

Decent tour with a side of glass spraying on your face - Tour guide was very nice. But the driver sucked very very bad he hit a tree. Broke the front upper window made glass spray all
Over me and my wife and did not seem to care to much. The tour guide ended up cleaning the glass off of us
