Discover the true stories behind some of the Harbour city’s most shocking crimes on a Sydney Crime and Underground Tour. Fans of history, true crime and the macabre will not be disappointed.
True crime is a hugely popular genre of fiction and non-fiction works, and a Sydney crime tour is a unique way to trace the steps and histories of our cities and their underworlds. Transport back to the golden era of King’s Cross and unpack the notorious murders and other infamous crimes that made the Cross one of Australia’s most dangerous and exciting neighbourhoods. You’ll also visit the old stomping crowd of the Razor gang, the organised crime groups which terrorised Sydney in the 1920s.
Once a playground for bohemians, underworld figures and artists, Kings Cross became renowned as the 'Glittering Mile'. This infamous red-light strip of sleazy bars, nightclubs and strip shows peaked in the 1960s & 70s and is associated with many of New South Wales’ most audacious and infamous crimes of the era. With Australia's highest concentration of Art Deco architecture and controversial history of lust, luxuriance and crime, a walk through the Cross is a must do experience for any true crime lover!
These guided tours will take you to some of the traditional landmarks in the city and encounter the souls of those trapped here for eternity. Your tour guide will give you more information on the vicious criminals and sinister events that have occurred in Sydney, as well as some of the most infamous ghosts left behind. Tours typically start in Sydney’s city centre and end at the Rocks or Potts Point. Explore the city's paranormal history, dating back to Sydney’s notorious colonial beginnings.
Unpack Sydney’s colourful convict heritage on an underground tour with Amazed. Sydney’s colonial beginnings were marked by hardship, bad luck and a fair share of outrageous crimes. Defying the odds, the early convicts and free settlers survived, clutching to life on the banks of a stream. Over the coming centuries, rocks and vegetation gave way to cottages and corridors, then roads and the historical buildings we know today. This experience is guaranteed to keep your ears pricked, your eyes open and your passion for the past brought to life.
