Sydney The Rocks Guided Walking Tour

Sydney The Rocks in 2 hours

George was welcoming and hospitable in his approach, showcasing Sydney history with energy and knowledge. While he delivered on the basic history, he excelled at holding the attention span by asking questions and therefore helping us to absorb the history better. All in all a wonderful 2 hours and highly recommended.

Absolutely great. Les, ...

Absolutely great. Les, our guide knew so much and made early Australian history seem so alive and vital. He interspersed his facts with just enough jokes and puns to make it lively and interesting. The Blue Mountains did not disappoint, it was a beautiful day and the views were glorious. In spite of a bit of delay at the cablecars, I found worth doing at Scenic World. Sydney Zoo was fun , especially if you are visiting from overseas and want to encounter and get close to our native animals. The Ferry at the end was okay. As it had a few stops to make, I think we were all so tired by then, it would have been easier to just get back into the city by bus. But the experience of the day was terrific and memorable. My overseas visitors Loved it and talked about it the whole week they were here. Thank you again to Les our guide. Just terrific.

Amazing tour to see...

Amazing tour to see Fetherdale Wildlife Park and Blue Mountains/Three Sisters in a day. Chris from Activity Tours was excellent. He is very knowledgeable and knows the trails in and out. I’d trust him in the wilderness anywhere. I also appreciate his excellent photo taking and how considerate he was while making sure we were comfortable with the steeper sections.

Safe, smooth unforgettable way to see Sydney

Absolutely book this! It was my first time ever in a helicopter and now I want to do one of these that every scenic place I visit. It was such a smooth ride and I really enjoyed how the pilot pointed out all of the cool things to see below. Even though it was only a short amount of time it felt like a long tour because we saw so much! Very professional and I felt extremely safe.

Perfect “Chill but Interesting” Afternoon in Sydney

We were looking for something low-key to fill an afternoon—something more engaging than just sitting in a bar—and this tour ended up being the perfect choice. Exploring The Rocks through its historic pubs was a really unique way to experience a bit of Sydney’s layered history. The mix of storytelling, local context, and great stops along the way made it both entertaining and informative without ever feeling heavy. Our guide, Emily, was fantastic. Her enthusiasm—especially when it engaging everyone to enjoy our time together—was contagious and really added to the experience. She kept things fun, relaxed, and engaging the entire time. One unexpected highlight: one of the stops had a pizza featuring kangaroo and emu meat. While we didn't have time to order one during the tour, we were intrigued enough that we actually went back later that evening after a show at the Opera House to try it. If you’re looking for a casual, social, and slightly different way to explore Sydney, this tour is a great pick. Highly recommend.

Really nice aquarium for kids and adults

We were passing by the aquarium when my son demanded we visit it :) So I quickly looked up tickets deals and found this two attractions in 24 h option which was half the price of a single attraction ticket. The aquarium was totally worth a visit. Unfortunately we didn't have time to see the shark experience but toured most of the other attractions. Highly recommend it for at least 2-3 hours.
