Get off the beaten track and see Sydney from a local's perspective!
Explore 3 historic suburbs - Pyrmont, Ultimo and Glebe - on this fun and relaxed walk, while tasting a range of iconic Aussie foods and learning about Australian culture and society.
The tour includes visits to a local cafe, the most unique pub in Sydney (complete with talking pet cockatoo) and an Aboriginal-owned restaurant.
What makes these neighbourhoods interesting? While often overlooked by both visitors and locals, Pyrmont, Ultimo & Glebe have amazing stories to tell and many hidden gems. Discover the early industrial history of the area, how it became a ghost-town and then has re-invented itself in the last few decades.
Foods sampled:
Start location: Pyrmont Bridge, Darling Harbour. We meet at the yellow and green control tower which is in the middle of Pyrmont Bridge (the pedestrian bridge in Darling Harbour).
End location: Friend in Hand Hotel, Glebe. From here, it is a 2-minute walk to Glebe Point Rd (where you can catch a bus back to the city) or a 20-minute walk back to the start location.

3 weeks agoMichael was so knowledgeable and passionate about bout the area and his career. There were many interesting geographical topics brought up within our group and he was able to navigate each one with ease. It was important that I went on a tour that gave a history to all aspects of Sydney/Australia so I appreciated how he was able to incorporate a little of everything and customize the experience based on our audience.

2 months agoWe couldn't recommend this tour highly enough! Our guide, Justin, was so knowledgeable and really tailored the tour to what the group was interested in. It was such an amazing way to get a snapshot of the city, and he had great recommendations to help the rest of our visit. We loved the inclusion of both local Aboriginal and colonial history.

3 months agoI highly recommend the ultimate Sydney walking tour, whether it is your first time in Sydney or not. Justin is friendly, personable, super knowledgeable, and he delivered an outstanding experience. He covered relevant content at a comfortable pace. Not only did he discuss the early history of the city and country, but he somehow seamlessly tied it to what Sydney has to offer today… including its arts, architecture, social life, current events… We absolutely loved our time spent with Justin and learned a ton while having a wonderful walk throughout the city. Big time highlight of our visit to Sidney.

a month agoHaving just arrived in Sydney, and not sure where to visit. I would recommend one of these tours with Justin to get your bearings, he was a fabulous tour guide, great local knowledge, and made it very interesting. Finishing in a local bar with great views of the Sydney Opera house.
