    Fantastic tour

    Kathy_E, Feb 2025
    So much history in this area. Our guide was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. Would highly recommend to anyone coming to Sydney.

    Must do tour!

    Best tour we did in Sydney! Oscar is awesome! We did another walking tour of the city and this was far better. Must do tour even if you do others.

    AW! Thank you very much for such a great review! It was a real pleasure sharing with you the amazing stories behind The Rocks. I hope you are having a great time in Sydney! :)

    This is a Must Do in Sydney!

    This rating needs six stars, like the Australian flag (and you find out why there are six stars on it in the tour!). Oscar was an amazing guide. He packed over 200 years of history in two hours while getting to see some terrific sights. We were able to ask plenty of questions, and saw parts of The Rocks that we would never have seen otherwise. He really brought the history of the area to life. Please take his instructions seriously about comfy shoes… it is on historical streets and uphill. Must do!

    Perfect first step to Exploring Sydney

    Oscar was our tour guide and he was awesome!!! Great first impression of Sydney and a vault of information on the area. He even gave us some tips on how to make an authentic Spanish dish my husband asked about.

    Great tour to book!

    Our guide was great. We learned so much about the rocks. He made it very interesting and showed us things we would not have seen if we were on our own. Tour also ended in an awesome spot overlooking the city.. thanks for a great tour!

    Oscar was an excellent guide. Knowledge, personable, and full of great tips for the rest of our visit. Great introduction to Australia and Sydney. Highly recommend.

    Don’t miss this tour!

    Oscar was terrific. We enjoyed this tour so much. There were 8 of us, and that was a perfect sized group. We thought the iPad was very helpful in telling us the story. He had pictures that described the history and the facts he was explaining. We’re really happy we did this, and he even gave us lots of suggestions for what to do with the rest of our time. Thanks for everything, Oscar!!!

    Response from Host, Feb 2023

    Thanks for the phenomenal review Staci. We are very passionate about Australian history and we love to hear valued customers, like you two, enjoying and learning about this fascinating part of town. It was a real pleasure meeting you. All the best.

    Evening stroll in Sydney

    Oscar was a fantastic guide. This tour was very informative, comprehensive, and enjoyable. Everything you wanted to know about the rocks on an evening stroll. Absolutely a “must do” in Sydney!

    Response from Host, Feb 2023

    Hi Allie, it was our pleasure meeting you both and showing you the fascinating history of The Rocks. We hope you are enjoying the rest of your days in town. Thank you very much for your kind words

    Excellent historical tour

    Oscar did a fantastic job explaining the history of the area and providing a valuable experience. This excursion was much more enriching than attempting to explore the area ourselves.

    Response from Host, Nov 2022

    Thank you very much for your kind review. We also enjoy sharing the time with you and we are glad you could enjoy the Rocks while understanding its history

    Hermosa experiencia. La recomiendo

    Una agradable caminata por la ciudad antigua con un guía muy amable y buen conocedor. Acompaña sus explicaciones de imágenes en la tablet lo que lo hace más ameno.
