Small-Group Sydney City Walking Tour

About this experience

Our 3 hour walking tour takes guests through the heart of Sydney. We explore the city’s rich Aboriginal, convict and colonial past alongside the modern day with our unique guiding style of combining history and entertainment.
Our expert guides will cover all the icons; the Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge and The Rocks, but they’ll also take guests to places where buses simply can’t go, as they invoke a Sydney they couldn’t find on their own.

Guests will also pick up some great tips on eating, drinking and experiencing Sydney from those who live it.
Groups are kept small so we can move around easily, but also allow the guide to chat with each guest.
We pause mid walk at a local cafe for a complimentary drink and rest stop.
