    Excellent tour, lasted about 75 minutes.
    Must be good at walking up and down steps, as the SOH is full of them, with only 1 lift currently being built for handicap use.

    An interesting tour with a very knowledgeable guide! I can only recommend it for your next visit to Sydney!

    Chris was a wonderful guide and showed us around in this amazing building, giving us heaps of informations, answering a lot of questions and being very passionate about the sydney opera house. Thanks for the tour Chris!

    Very interesting! Seeing all the venues except Performance Hall which was under renovation was so fascinating. The attention to detail with both the structure design and interior design is mind blowing! Our guide, Jessie, was charming and so informative. The history about the architect Otzen and the political turmoil that short changed him was heartbreaking. This is a must do I’m Sydney. Just taking pics of the exterior is just not enough.

    A privilege to be able to see around this iconic building and experience the scale of it. Enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide. Would definitely recommend this experience.

    The tour is great and our tour guide was amazing. I just wish the tour would have explained that the opera house was under renovation and you could not see it. I still would have booked it but it is not a tour of the main opera house until it is done in July. You do get some of it but not the main house. Super informational and I learned a lot!

    very expensive for that kind of tour …
    we dont understand why Nicholas (tour guide ) keep on telling us that he needs to ask permission to enter this theater and the other small theaters .. we paid for this tour and people working there should expect us tourists walking around looking ..
    we did not see the MAIN THEATER ..
    so disappointed .. most of the things that he showed us inside … we can see that from the outside of the opera house .. unbelievable …
    we bought tour and dine at the opera kitchen
    food was horrible ..
    chicken burger for my husband
    (he said kfc is better )
    ragu pasta for me (seems like its a left over from last night and just reheated in the microwave )
    for $ 160
    waste of money

    This tour was very educational and helped to understand why and how the opera house was built. The thought that went in to each detail to make it the perfect center for performing arts is amazing! Our guide Bruce was very knowledgeable.

  9. Izzy

    Very nice and friendly tour guide

  10. Shaun_H

    A great tour not to be missed.The tour guide was a bonus knowledge very good.
    The only negative there are a lot of steps around the Opera house inside and out.
    Great views of the harbour and surrounding area.
    We took the 11.30 tour on a saturday morning not to crowded.

  11. Ronald_P

    We were delighted with the headsets: you had to pay attention when you were told about the volume, but they paid off by actually hearing the guide without crowding around them.

  12. Wendy_K

    Stephen was great! Very informative and easy to follow. Glad I took the time to see this. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Sydney.

  13. Mary_M

    Having my family hear the history of the Opera House and seeing the updated concert hall.
    This was my family’s first visit to the Opera House.

  14. Susan_C

    A memorable morning in Sydney with a well orchestrated tour. Our guide (Nick) was great and full of interesting facts and tales of the Opera House.

  15. DAN_D

    This tour was OK, but not worth the time or money. My guide was knowledgable enough and started the tour timely, but we saw very little of the inside of the opera house. The main hall had a rehearsal going on so it was out of bounds. We visited the second largest hall, then the smallest one used for children’s theater. All in all, this tour didn’t give me much of a feel for the opera hall facilities. I was quite disappointed.

  16. Mridul_N

    It was a great experience visiting the Opera House and learning about the history of this architectural brilliance. Michel, our tour guide was absolutely brilliant.
    Thank you

  17. Adrianne_M

    It was nice to see the inside of the opera house but I was disappointed that we did not get a more behind-the-scenes look, like seeing backstage of a theater or a green room.

  18. Cat_H

    What an incredible experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable and engaging. I highly recommend this tour if you’re travelling to Sydney!

  19. MingSze_C

    With the tour, we are able to access some areas that were generally not open to tourists, including 3 of the halls and some balconies. The guide speaks very clear and the storytelling was amazing.

  20. Jessica_B

    Very knowledgeable tour guide. Great backstage experience. Beautiful, just beautiful. Great views of the architecture and great views of harbor.
