5.00We walked to 3 different historical pubs and learned the history of the Rocks. Our tour guide, Simon, was extremely knowledgeable and funny. The hours flew by and we were sent away with a few extra pub recommendations to explore on our own. Would definitely recommend this tour!
Cheers to History and Hops!

5.00A fantastic tour through some of Sydney’s oldest European pubs! Our guide was not only knowledgeable but also super fun and entertaining. We sampled a variety of beers and ciders while soaking in the city’s rich history and iconic sights. Excellent service and a great mix of booze, banter, and storytelling -highly recommend! 🍻🏙️🇦🇺
Must go if you love learning significant historical information and you love beer!

5.00The Historic Pubs tour was both a pleasant tour of 4 pubs in The Rocks and a lesson in the history and development of Sydney and The Rocks. Our guide Simon did a great job of making the tour fun and historically informative. .
Cheers!

5.00Our guide Colin was excellent - full of knowledge and enthusiasm. The beer/drinks were very generous on the tour and we were very happy to have eaten a hearty meal in advance. We knew there would not be food on the tour so it worked out great for us to have an early dinner (we went to The Rocks Cafe) and then the drinks. Colin took us to places we would not have found on our own, and every place we stopped had a designated table waiting for us. Our 20 year old daughter joined us on the tour and it was a fun thing for all of us to do.
