Private tour of Sydney -- well worth it! - I'm a travel advisor and was on a personal vacation in Australia with my 18-year old son when I found Ben's Personalised Sydney Tours available through one of my travel suppliers. I booked the tour online and Ben was very quick to respond with a confirmation and pick-up time/location details. I found him to be prompt and courteous, an excellent driver, patient with all the questions I asked, and was familiar with the history of Sydney. I wouldn't hesitate to contact Ben for my clients who are visiting Sydney--either on a customized itinerary or from a cruise ship. He was excellent to work with. It's rare to find such a professional individual who delivers on all points.

Tailored tour for my parents - I booked this tour for my parents who were visiting Sydney for the first time (first time in AU actually). Ben was very responsive and curated a lovely itinerary for them. They had a wonderful time and will be taking back some great memories. Thanks Ben!
