The Experience
What your day looks like
We’re nothing if not pragmatic, that’s why we’ve created an experience that takes you right to the heart of Sydney - Darling Harbor. With your local Sydney host by your side, you’ll explore the surroundings of one of Sydney’s most famous spots. From here, you can access most of the city’s iconic attractions, like the Opera House, Sydney Harbor Bridge, the Royal Botanic Gardens, Luna Park, and Taronga Zoo. Soak up the colonial era architecture as you cheer to a few hours well spent! Within 24 hours after booking, you'll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, you'll be assigned a like-minded host. Your host will communicate with you directly to suggest an itinerary to help you discover what makes the city unique. You will also agree on a meeting time and place. Your itinerary is flexible, so during the experience, you can always change your mind about what you want to do.

An excellent tour, and Melanie made sure we had everything we wanted and needed. Not just the fun stuff like sites, tours and activities, but also the entry and travel requirements. Thank you for a trip of a lifetime!
