Traveling to so many places around Sydney and to explore together with everyone and our driver was exceptional, he made the tour super amazing.

exactly as advertised, a bus tour from the city to Bondi beach and back (if you want, staying at Bondi and organizing own transport back to wherever you need to go is also an option). photo stops were great, especially with the perfect weather we luckily had.
