Sydney Tour (April–May 2021)
Template:MKTTour The Sydney Tour was the forty-second tour of Mario Kart Tour, which began on April 21, 2021 and ended on May 4, 2021. True to its name, the tour introduced a new course based in Sydney, Australia called Sydney Sprint, which was hinted at in two previous tours, the Marine Tour and the Ninja Tour, through the SNES Koopa Troopa Beach 2 Glider Challenge, which featured a boat designed like one of Sydney's famous ferries. It also introduced a koala-themed variant of Baby Mario for the first week's spotlight while Mario (Swimwear) and Rosalina (Swimwear) returned as part of the spotlight for the second week. The menu's background featured the Sydney Harbour Bridge as the landmark for this tour. This tour debuted first in the game before the trailer, because the latter took long to upload.
This was the last tour to feature the fourth set of Expert Challenges, which started in the Peach vs. Daisy Tour.
Starting with this tour, the Toe-Bean Balloons glider became available in regular tour pipes.
This tour also brings back the vs. Mega Wendy bonus challenge from the London Tour (which was also used in the Peach Tour), making it the first Vs. Mega bonus challenge to appear three times.
