There is no better way to get up close and personal with the history and heritage of Sydney than joining one of The Rocks Walking Tours. This was such a memorable experience. During the 2 hours tour we were able to hear the history of Sydney as the group strolled the shoreline of Sydney Harbour with amazing views of the Sydney Opera House, the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Cadman’s Cottage. Vickie is the friendliest and most enthusiastic guide. She is so knowledgeable and passionate about the city. The tour departs from The Rocks Walking Tours’ Office which is conveniently located in the heart of The Rocks Clocktower Square. The Rocks Walking Tour was one of the highlights of my first day in Sydney.
Enjoyably educational! Took the whole family so my 10 yr old could learn about our history. We all learnt so much from our tour guide, Nickie. She really new her content and could answer the questions my son threw at her. We learnt about the real size of the first fleet ships, the way they made mortar from shells, details of specific people from the 1800s, and so much more! On our tour we even stopped at some great spots for photos of the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. It was definitely a worthwhile experience.
The tour guide was very knowledgeable and she went above and beyond, and gave us 30 mins extra to explain the history of The Rocks area. I can’t remember her name but she has been fantastic. Lucky it was only a small group as few people cancelled, it was an enjoyable experience if you like history and architecture.Visited onWeekdayWait timeUp to 10 minReservation recommendedYes
Outstanding. Michael is very knowledgeable, entertaining and personable. You will experience an excellent balance of Indigenous and post settlement history, little known facts about the establishment of the colony and the personalities within, right up to the preservation of the character, architecture and geography of The Rocks. We did this tour 10 years ago and were so impressed, we went out of our way to do this with our children on our next holiday to Sydney.
For a first time visitor, this is a wonderful introduction to Sydney and it's historical waterfront. Michael was a great teller of the story of how the area evolved from a rough and tumble working class area. About 2 hours long, it was an easy walk and an insightful start to our visit. There are plenty of cool places to photograph. Fun discovery of the walk was seeing fire suppression on the outside of many of the windows of a particular building. Highly recommended.
Now that was the best 90 minutes of education of The Rocks with Michael on Friday 19th Nov. The time flew by so quickly as we were learning the history from early days and seeing the actual buildings and history of who lived in them. This was an amazing experience. Thank you Michael.
A GREAT TOUR Take this tour even if you have been to The Rocks, its well worth the effort. Informative and just the right length of timeVisited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
This 90 minute tour completely transformed my experience in Sydney. Knowing the history of the area, the city, and the country, made my entire visit much more enlightening. Our guide, Jon, was nothing short of incredible and told the most amazing and engaging stories. Highly recommend adding this touristy activity - it's so worth it!
A fantastic experience. I was born and grew up in Sydney. I visit the Rocks regularly so it was a great "refresh" in the history of the Rocks. Our guide, Sofia ? was well informed and brought a warmth to her story telling. It's always great being a "tourist" in our lovely city. Highly recommended.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
In town for a day before I head back to the States. Did a tour with Miss Vickie. It was a great tour and a great way to see and hear stories about "The Rocks" and Sydney's history. Highly recommend it to everyone. A great way to spend an hour and half!Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
