What your day looks like
Discover the story of Sydney on this expert-led walking tour, while hitting all of the city's main attractions. Perfect for those who have just arrived, as well as locals and those who want to go deeper in learning about Australian history, culture, society & First Nations people. Starting from Customs House, you'll hear about Sydney's colonisation by the British and how their arrival impacted the original inhabitants, the Cadigal people of the Eora nation. Your guide will provide you with a range of perspectives on Sydney's development, introducing Aboriginal people, British governors, convicts & entrepreneurs, and other multicultural migrants. You'll finish at a popular brewery with harbour views of both the Bridge and the Opera House. Your host will give you our custom-made maps and give you heaps of recommendations for your time in Sydney: food, nightlife, art, and much more stuff you won’t find in any guidebook! Walk the streets in a small group (max 12) so you’re not fighting to see & hear your guide or stay on the footpath. On this walk, you'll visit, see, and learn about: Sydney Opera House, Harbour Bridge, The Rocks, Hyde Park Barracks, St Mary's Cathedral, The "Rum Hospital", Queen Victoria Building, Royal Botanic Gardens, General Post Office (GPO), ANZAC Cenotaph, The Tank Stream & much more!

Michael is a great tour guide. I arrived in Sydney as a solo traveler and wanted to learn about the history of Sydney. Such a great way to spend my first day and get to know the area. From the tour I was able to spend the next couple of days going back to some of the museums and sites to get a more in depth look. As I walked the I recognized places we had been and felt I knew where I was. Michael made suggestions of other things to do such as the ferry ride. Did not disappoint. Definitely recommend!
