Review for: Haymarket Sydney CBD Pickup

The Floriade Flower Festival experience was one for the books, its exceeded my expectation. The flowers are surreal and incredible. The place was nice and organise. Overall it was very amazing experience. Shout out to our tour guide driver and Ivan for the superb guidance for us.

worth it! this annual activity deserves a visit. we came during its last weekend but the flowers are still pretty and colorful. the visit to the Parliament House and Mount Ainslie is also a good addition to the itinerary. Be ready for a packed day as you leave Sydney at 7am and arrive back before 9pm.

The trip to floriade and other places in Canberra was well organised. It was on time and the journey was comfortable.. I would highly recommend booking from here. Enjoyed the day thoroughly.

Although the trip is long, it is worth it because the flowers are beautiful. In addition to flowers, the venue also has different stalls (food and souvenirs), a performance stage (singing and dancing) and games for teenagers. You can also bring a picnic mat. It is very lively and fun, but not too overwhelming. However, you can only stay at the flower show for 2 and a half hours. , including lunch on your own, so the tour time is not very enough. Can the coffee/toilet break be reduced from 45 minutes to 20 minutes? The return time adds up to more than 1 hour for break. It would be better to return to Sydney early or add time to visit the flower show.

We had a wonderful day trip to Canberra for the Floriade Festival! Everything was well organized, and we enjoyed visiting key attractions like the Parliament House and Mount Ainslie Lookout. Special thanks to our friendly guides for Bus 2, Ivan and Robbie. This was my second trip with Ozia Tours, and I’ll definitely book again!

Review for: Haymarket Sydney CBD Pickup

If you are heading to Canberra, pairing it with Floriade is a great idea so it is not entirely museum-focused. However, for architecture enthusiasts, this itinerary might feature fewer museum sights. Even so, you still get to see the Captain Cook Memorial Jet and Parliament House. The only downside is that the seven-hour bus ride can be quite tiring.

Review for: Haymarket Sydney CBD Pickup

Our family had a lovely time at the Floriade, it was just a shame that it rained quite a bit. Many stalls were closed and since it was towards the end of the festival, there were bulbless tulips. The tour itself was excellently planned, with ample time for each stop, though a bit too long of a stop at the midway point for the toilet break, in my opinion. Januar helped us take group photos and always had a whiteboard to show us the meet-up time which I appreciated because I tend to sleep during the bus rides. If you do not want the stress of planning your commute or driving yourself, this is a good option.

Review for: Parramatta Pickup

Visiting the Floriade has always been a wonderful experience. The tour timings worked well as we were able to even slide in a good lunch in the CBD before heading out to drive around the National Embassies, visit Parliament House, and enjoying the awesome view of Canberra from Mt Ainslie. The only minor issue we experienced is that we were told by our tour guide that the toilet in the bus can be used but got told off it is only for emergency use, in an un-friendly way by our bus driver, during a stop over.
