One of the best experiences ever! - What a wonderful day of sightseeing and animal visits. We had the best day with Matt on our day long adventure from Sydney. The best part was the visit with the Koala and Kangaroos. We got to pet the Koala. The lunch spot was great and the swimming was really nice. We loved seeing all of the parks and the ultimate dinner with the special pie. If you are looking for a very fun day, this is it.

Wild Australia in a Day - Incredible day with our guide, Matt, who as a life long Australian, gave us an authentic taste of Australia. We went into the bush, met koalas, spiders, emu, and lots of kangaroos up close. We hiked trails to see bats. We went to several beaches. We ate at a lovely seaside restaurant where the shrimp tempura was perfect. Definitely a great tour to see wildlife and wild Australia in a day. Highly recommend! Thanks Matt! The Smith Family

The best way to explore Australia! - We had the most amazing tour with Matt at Sydney Guided Tours! He took us to the areas that other don't and we had the chance to experience the "real" Sydney, Australia in a way other tours don't. First, it was private, so the tour was customized to our liking. Second, the conversation was intimate and open, which we loved. Third, Matt is a professional photographer and provided all the photos he took for free! Finally, we felt that this was the very best possible way to see Sydney in the little time we had allotted. It was well worth every dollar. We highly recommend this tour to anyone.

The best "real" Sydney experience ever! - Matt was fantastic! He arrived promptly and filled every minute of the tour with exciting adventure. Matt was easy to talk to and very accommodating to our needs. Although a short visit to Sydney, Matt made us feel like we left no stone unturned. Highly recommend this tour for a thorough experience

Best day ever!!! - Fantastic day filled with adventure! It was literally a MONSOON on the day we had our tour booked. We just dressed in waterproof clothing and off we went! Matt was fantastic and got a fill for everything we wanted to do and made it happen!! I mostly wanted to see and experience Australia’s animals…. And he made it happen! We got to pet a koala, play with kangaroos and wallabies, walk a baby wombat on a leash, and feed and play with a serval ( small leopard) Horseback riding in the pouring rain was a unique experience and we even got to trot! We had a fantastic lunch overlooking the beach, watching the surfers. Then we hiked along the rocks during low tide and it was beautiful! My FAVORITE thing, (and I know it’s not for everyone) was he’s took us to see a colony of wild bats! All you need to do on this tour is tell Matt was you are interested in and he will create a fantastic experience for you!

Amazing Day with Matt - What a very special day with Matt exploring the spectacular and off the beaten track wonders outside of Sydney. We started with an awesome and educational wilderness walk, followed by a very special wildlife sanctuary with meaningful contact with koalas, kangaroos and emus. While we had explored beautiful beaches by ferry from Sydney, Matt brought us to the most amazing beach and coastal walk which we could never have discovered without him. Add to that a pearl farm, gin tasting, and mind blowing “secret” treat I can’t disclose. But best of all, Matt was great company, with a wonderful personality and endless knowledge and enthusiasm for the natural beauty surrounding Sydney. Truly a standout of our trip and a very special tour.

Off the beaten path, unique and incredible! - My wife and I have taken tours all over the world over the past 40 years. Each one has its own charm. I rarely write a review. But I can honestly say this was the most enjoyable tour we have ever taken. Matt's contagious personality took hold of us immediately. His knowledge of the whole Sydney area excellent. He quickly adapted to our personal tastes and pace, my wife has a handicap and can walk only short distances. However, we did not miss out on anything. I am an obstetrician, and he took us to seldom viewed Aboriginal stone carving of a midwife delivering a baby and took my picture in front of it. Very unique. We visited the Walkabout Wildlife Park which was incredible being able to get so close and touch the animals (under close supervision of course). Matt mapped out for us other unique views, off the beaten path on our own lovely "Walk about". Thank you Matt and we will see you again "down under" next time we come to Australia.

Awesome day exploring Sydney - We had a great time exploring the Sydney area with Matt. We saw so in one day. Matt was very friendly and easy to talk to. He’s very knowledgeable about the area. I liked the added bonus of receiving high-quality pictures from our trip that we can print. Thanks, Matt!
