This isn’t your standard Sydney history tour.

It’s for anyone who’s ever asked, “Where are the women in the story of this city?” For travellers who want to step off the beaten path and discover a Sydney few ever see – but everyone should know.

Led by She Shapes History, you’ll walk from Macquarie Street to The Rocks, meeting the women who opened political doors, preserved heritage buildings, and built community in the city’s oldest streets – pub owners, nurses, writers, widows, and Chinese women who resisted, rebuilt, and reshaped Sydney in ways you’ve probably never heard about.

    We had the best time on the sydney tour with Kyra!! She was friendly, funny and informative. I learnt about some amazing women I had never heard about before! It was a perfect amount of relaxed walking with a little coffee stop built in. I would recommend to anyone!

  • Far exceeded my expectations. Book now. You won’t regret it

    Fascinating tour that truly made me want to learn more about these inspirational women. So impressed I’ve book the same tour in Melbourne ! Amiera was witty, friendly and engaging and passionate and knowledgeable. Can’t help talking about it ! Highly recommend it.

    The Badass Women of Sydney walking tour was as good as I hoped it would be. Ameria was an engaging storyteller who brought the past to life as we wandered through historic parts of history and learnt the influence women have had.

    Really enjoyable and informative tour of women’s history in Sydney. Our guide Jess was engaging, funny and energised. I brought a teenager along and she had a positive experience. The walk was gentle with rest stops along the way.

    This is an outstanding tour. I know Sydney reasonably well, but on this tour we stopped at places I had never been to before, or never taken any notice of. Amiera, our guide, was enthusiastic, articulate and a great conversationalist. She encouraged our group to delve deeper into the history of the women of Sydney she was high-lighting, as well as look into the lives of other women who need celebrating. I highly recommend this tour for local Sydney-siders, anyone visiting from interstate and for international guests. N.B We walked mainly on flat surfaces, with rest stops along the way.

    I expected the walk to be good, but it was way beyond expectations, and the most enjoyable two and a bit hours I have spent in a while. The information was really interesting and brilliantly delivered. I am a Sydneysider, and consider myself reasonably knowledgeable, so I was surprised to discover objects around the place that were new to me and to learn new things. Great work.

    An incredibly informative and interesting tour. I learnt about women who were so significant in their contribution to Australia some of whom I had never heard! We had a vivacious and well- informed tour leader. She was an inspiration herself!!
