Daily Sydney Tours - Lane Cove, New South Wales

Steven V.

Having needed to make a decision without meeting Korhan, I based it on his responsiveness to the questions I posed over email and the comprehensive manner in which he responded to them. My family and I are really happy we did!

This past July, we spent a day with Korhan at the Blue Mountains, including pit stops at Featherdale Wildlife Park and lunch at a charming brasserie in Leura which he recommended. Korhan is knowledgeable about Sydney and surrounding areas, and personable - traits you look for in a local guide. For example, when we were at Featherdale, he shared with us the layout of the park so that we had an idea of the animals we would be meeting which helped us rationed the food we bought to feed them.

Korhan drives a VW van which is comfortable and can accommodate 6 guests. He is also a good driver. If we were to visit Sydney again, we would absolutely seek Korhan out, this time perhaps for a tour of Hunter Valley. 5 Stars! #DailySydneyTours

Excellent Day Tour to Canberra - Highly Recommend!

My husband and I were looking for a day trip from Sydney to Canberra and found Daily Sydney Tours website online. Having booked many other trips in the past, we are fairly cautious of choosing the right travel company to fit our needs. From the get go, we were very impressed. We got immediate tailored responses to our questions and the opportunity to make suggestions to help shape our trip.

On the morning of the tour, Korhan was waiting for us outside our hotel in the centre of Sydney and instantly made us feel comfortable. The car was gorgeous, spacious and perfectly air conditioned. We started our drive to Canberra and got chatting which changed the dynamic from the standard tour guide experience and instead we were made to feel like we had known each other for years. Korhan took an interest in us, our home country (Scotland), our culture and our interests/what we hoped to see on the trip. As we had mentioned a desire to see Australian wildlife, we regularly slowed down to see animals in their natural habitats and were given informative facts about them.

We stopped midway between Sydney and Canberra at Goullburn and went to the wonderful Trappers Bakery for some delicious coffee and baked treats before continuing on our journey. Our next stop was Mount Ainslie for a stunning lookout over Canberra. Again Korhan shared the history of the capital, how it was built and facts about the architecture etc. which really set the tone for the rest of the trip. Following Mount Ainslie, we were taken to the War Museum where all entrance tickets etc were taken care of and again we were walked round and given some amazing facts about the ANZAC’s and their invaluable contribution to the war efforts. We were also given free time to walk round at our leisure and take real time to appreciate the exhibits before going for some lunch in the centre of town.

The whole trip flowed naturally and never felt rushed as some other trips have. We were always asked if we would like more time or if we wanted to see anything else which was really refreshing and felt like our wishes were really being considered.

Our next stop was extremely lucky and a very special experience which we feel privileged to have been part of. We were taken to the parliament building and walked round before being asked if we wanted to sit in on prime ministers questions which we gratefully accepted. We sat for around half an hour listening to the Australian government officials and prime minister debating important topics that shape Australia. This has become a highlight of our holiday that we will not forget. After parliament, we were driven around the various countries embassy buildings and shown the UK embassy which again felt very tailored to our backgrounds and made the trip more relevant to us.

Lastly we went to the Royal Mint and watched currency being made whilst being given some background on the history behind it. We even got a chance to make our own coin which will be kept and treasured as a keepsake.

Overall, we cannot recommend Daily Sydney Tours and specifically the Canberra day trip enough. Korhan has a real passion for sharing the history and traditions or Australia with his guests whilst making sure everything he shares is relevant to his them. This has been by far the best tour we have ever had the pleasure of being on and one not to be missed by anyone. Korhan even took time on the trip home to share insight on his own culture and background whilst also sharing more history on Australia and it’s indigenous people which was amazing to learn about.

We cannot thank the team enough for helping to give us a special, tailored experience that we will never forget.

Lovely tour to Blue Mountains conducted by Mr Kohran. We loved his ability as a tour guide about explaining all details.He is a very humble and honest person taking care of all his tourists with a great humane touch. I will highly recommend him for tours in and around Sydney.

We had a great day with Korhan exploring the Blue Mountains. Even though it was a last-minute booking, Korhan met us at our hotel early the following morning. We visited Featherdale Wildlife Park, Scenic World, and 3 different spectacular Blue Mountains lookouts, away from the crowds. Although it was a long day from Sydney, we saw so much and we had a comfortable and spacious tour mini-bus to ourselves, as Korhan runs only private tours. English is not Korhan’s native language, but his command of English is excellent and his accent barely noticeable (he’s been living in Australia for a long time). Korhan gave us a nice balance between insight about the history of the Blue Mountains area and local spots, as well as the touristic experience. Given the cost of this private tour, it was excellent value for money!

I had discovered Daily Sydney Tours many months back on the internet when I was searching a company who did private tours tailor made to suit us and with great reviews! And after our tour on 28th September I can safely say I found the right company to suit our needs!
We are a middle aged mum, a 16 year old boy and 2 middle aged English friends whom live in France. When I rang the company months ago Korhan (Korey) was available to assist me with setting up a proposed itinerary for us to cover the sites of the Blue Mountains in one day.
The morning before the tour Korey rang and said the weather wasn't looking great. Would we like to cancel, reschedule or go ahead regardless. We said go ahead anyway.
Later that day he messaged to say the weather was now looking good in the morning. Would we like to leave earlier so we could see the best bits before the bad weather came in which we greatly accepted.
Korey arrived on time in a warm and comfortable BMW. We had the most wonderful day! We didn't have to think about a thing as Korey was with us every step of the way so all we had to do was have fun and enjoy!
Korey originally from Turkey spoke exceptional English and was super knowledgeable about his adopted home of NSW. A true Aussie!
Don't bother ringing anyone else. Korey was great! We had a much better day than we would have had on a large tour. We were truly looked after and enjoyed Korey's company !
Thanks so much!
