Amazing! Lovely views round the Mountains, good lunch and a fab trip to Sydney zoo to feed kangaroos and have our photo taken with a Koala. Our tour guide Kat was full of facts the whole day and absolutely brilliant. Thanks Kat!
The trip was fantastic. Kat, our guide, was absolutely wonderful and full of knowledge and humor. ~2hr trip there with a brief 20min stop to stretch our legs. Then Echo point lookout was stunning (and windy!). The cable car and walk through of the rainforest area was great. All topped off with a fantastic lunch at this quaint home converted to restaurant in Leura. Then off to the animal sanctuary about an hour away which was awesome. Then back to Circular Quay via river boat. The day was fantastic and so was Kat. Would definitely do again!!
We had a blast going around the blue mountains with our guide! The bus was very comfortable, our trip was on-time. Lunch was fantastic!
Early start but our guide and small bus were already waiting. Weather wasn’t on our side but Steve (guide) had been brought up in the Blue Mountains and knew how to make the best of a bad weather day. He was amazing, so friendly and knowledgeable. We weren’t able to see very much of the stunning scenery, so ably described by Steve, but we still had a great day. We managed to do the steepest railway, cable car and walk amongst other stops – including a fresh waterfall and the 3 sisters. His enthusiasm was contagious. Lovely meal included too. On the way back we visited the zoo and had a tour of the olympic village as an added extra
Amazing tour! Our guide was Kat, who was both hilarious and informative. She also made the most of a rainy day. 100% could not recommend more.
Our guide, Kat, was amazing! She was so knowledgeable, and charming! I am an Aussie, and I learned so much about my own country, it was startling. The trip was well managed, interesting and engaging. Five stars and would recommend ❤️
Anderson’s gets an A+ for an absolutely spectacular day. The customer service was top-notch and Robert, out guide, was the best. Anderson’s was very accommodating and kept our very large group together even though we booked separately and were split into different groups. Quite an accomplishment at 7 am!
Robert was absolutely fantastic. Charming, engaging, and funny. Lots of history, stories, and jokes. Some would say that Robert is the 17th best tour guide in the world… but I say that he is #1.
Thanks, Robert.
Your friends at Legion Rugby.
This was a fabulous trip. Jay, our guide, was knowledgeable and tailored our stops to ensure the best views of the Three Sisters. We felt like a VIP everywhere we went because of Jay’s local connections. As a solo traveler, I felt comfortable and had a chance to meet fellow travelers because of the small size. The lunch was extra tasty—I recommend the chicken schnitzel which was the size of my head and extra tasty. I also loved the Sydney Zoo where we had a personal guide to showcase the Australian native animals. Highly recommend this trip!
Great day out! Super easy, from pick-up to drop-off. Just enough time spent at each location, really enjoyed the wildlife park as well. Our driver/guide, Tom, was informative and witty, and he made the day even more enjoyable than just being driven around in silence. Boat ride back was the perfect way to cap off a lovely day.
Kunal was a fantastic guide. His commentary throughout the day was informative,interesting and humorous. It was a very full day and everything ran like clockwork. I would highly recommend this tour.
Fantastic day. Adam is a brilliant guide. Very knowledgeable and entertaining. I would recommend Anderson tours to everyone.
Absolutely one of the best tours ever been on. Our bus driver and guide, Adam, made it an outstanding event! He knew all the right places, kept everything to schedule and all done with great humor. Loved it!
The whole trip was wonderful! Our driver Adam made it an incredibly memorable experience even though it was raining and there was heavy fog. He took us to places other big tour busses didn’t go and or he knew their schedules so he made sure we were not around them all day. That really made it feel like a special small group tour.
The place we went for lunch, The Bunker, was excellent. Food was amazing, they were extreme prompt and their customer service was impeccable. Would definitely continue to use them.
This tour was a great tour
