Good pick! The location tracking function is accurate.
It's the easiest way to travel around the main spots of the city within 1-2 days if you don't have much time. Just hop on/off the bus and visit as many places as you can. There are apps that can track the location of the bus as well so you don't have to rush to the stop.

Really great way to see all of Sydney's must-go-to places.
The drivers and staff are very friendly. Got a great overview of Sydney and helps decide where and what other activities to do while our stay. Recommendation for the blue line to end an hr later so that you can get off where you started. Really enjoyed it.

Everyone should experience Sydney from the top of the Big Red Bus!
This is such a unique way to get to explore Sydney. Not only is it cool to be able to see so much from an awesome vantage point, but I also learnt so much about the area. I tell all my friends now who are planning trips to Sydney to book a tour!
