What we'll do

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 how 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.
