    Very well organized. Quick response to questions by email. Efficient and friendly staff at route n*1. Interesting trip. Only downside: I couldn't hear the audio guide very well on the bus. Pleasant Captain Cook cruise, even more beautiful at 7:30 p.m.

    Best way to familiarise ourselves with Sydney and Bondi. Got to see all the major tourist attractions and the ease of getting on and off where we pleased was awesome.

    The ticketing experience turned out to be a nightmare for us. We needed to unlock our International online bank app to pay you. Didn't realise your company was based in Berlin. When we opened the banking app we were immediately scammed for $200. Next time we pay cash...it's safer

    We had a GREAT time on both the bus and the water cruise! We only went on the red route and not the blue route. There was a problem getting them to honor our ticket for the cruise. The information on the code was just for the bus, but not the cruise, even though the cruise was in the title. After working with the folks from The Big Bus, we got it straightened out. Apparently, you're using an older code. The bus trip was great about hitting all the highlights of the city.
