This was an inspiring journey...check it out soon!
This was an inspiring journey into online tours, the Blue Mountains and indigenous songlines and all I can say is that it lifted my spirits and inspired a new perspective into the indigenous story and how we can take this history of Australia to create a shared story for Australia.
Check it out soon!

I loved the experience of being on tour with Helen
I loved the experience of being on a virtual tour with Helen from Ultimately Sydney for a scenic experience of The Blue Mountains. I found the aboriginal content absolutely excellent and I loved listening to the stories Peter told about the Songlines through his country.
It's raw and real and I also really liked the unscripted content.
Thank you Helen

The virtual tour of the Blue Mountains
The virtual tour of the Blue Mountains, conducted by Helen at Ultimately Sydney, was fantastic!
Helen gave an informative and interactive account of the history and present state of this beautiful and unique Australian landscape.
The addition of Peter Williams, a soulful indigenous Australian, brought in a depth and appreciation of our influences on the land. I loved hearing his story about the traditional songlines of his people.
I will definately be visiting the Blue Mountains, once we're able to fully appreciate it in its wholeness.
Thanks again Helen, for such a great presentation delivered with such passion.

Personalized service at its best!
We would like to thank Rowen for a wonderful day yesterday wandering around the back streets of Sydney. Rowen was extremely accommodating to our 81 year old mum, always making sure that she was keeping up. We discovered areas of The Rocks that we didn’t know existed. Rowen also identified that we loved to dine out and went out of his way to recommend restaurants that we would enjoy. Thank you to everyone at Ultimately Sydney for still providing us with personalized tour despite what is happening around the world. We will definitely be using your services again in the future!

John did an excellent job showing us around Sydney. He pointed out points that we visited following our tour around Sydney. He also provided us with hand sanitizer and bottled water. We noticed that he had a disinfectant bottle on board in order to keep people safe during this CoronaVirus outbreak.
He also drove us by a hotel that my husband stayed in while in the Air Force back in the early 70's. My husband loved seeing that.
Thank you,
Pamela And Richard Hirsch

Thank you Pamela and Richard for your lovely review. Yes, we are very lucky have Jon on our team. He is a delight to work with. Thank you for being brave and getting out and about despite the happenings. It must have felt nostalgic when passing Richards home from the 70's. I hope you can visit again some time in the future.

History and Beauty combine
Our tour guide Antonio was very informative with the history about Sydney. Many things as an Australian I did not know. From start to finish it was a great tour with some breath taking views of Sydney Harbour thrown in.
All in all a fantastic end to our Sydney holiday and big CONGTATS to all in the team

Get to really know Sydney!
Helen was recommended to us by some friends, who toured Sydney with her last year, and we were delighted that they had. Helen provided a very informative tour, explaining the history of the city’s evolution and development, along with showing us areas of Sydney that we would never have discovered without her local knowledge. In addition, she highlighted several bars and restaurants that we should try. Using various modes of transport, ferry, tram, train etc., we covered an extensive area of Sydney. This was a great tour and very good value for the price.
