What To Expect
The Rocks
The oldest part of (white) Australia. It is where Captain Arthur Philip started the first penal settlement on 26 January 1788. Now a lively & romantic area with plenty of shops, bars and restaurants.
Observatory Hill
The highest point in the inner-city, where in 1858 the Observatory was built to keep the timer and observe the Southern Cross. Now a museum, a cafe and a favourite location for weddings.

5.00We were the only ones on our tour, so it was very personable. We enjoyed the walks along the way. Ben was very knowledgeable and gave a lot of local flair to the tour. Exactly what we love and very much appreciated!
Definitely a tour worth taking!

5.00Ben has lived in this region his entire life and is a wealth of information. We had plenty of stops where we could stretch our legs and admire the beautiful views. I was here a year ago, but saw quite a few new places. The other four passengers were fairly sedate and stayed with the Van on a couple of the walks. I requested to be dropped off at Coogee Beach so I could do the 4 mile coastal walk to Bondi Beach. It was a fabulous day for it!
Somewhat difficult to see...

4.00Somewhat difficult to see out of van. Guide was not smooth in information often mentioning a site after we had already passed it.
Excellent tour with a caring team!
