Overview
Discover the hidden corners of The Rocks with The Rocks Walking Tours, sharing Sydney’s history since 1978. Our experienced local guides bring the past to life through captivating stories of convicts, sailors, merchants and everyday people who shaped the city. On this 90-minute walk, explore narrow laneways, cobbled streets and tucked-away courtyards that are easy to miss on your own. Discover heritage buildings, terrace cottages and Cadman’s Cottage, with views of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and harbour foreshore along the way. With no more than 20 guests, you can ask questions, connect with your guide and enjoy a personal introduction to this historic neighbourhood. Walk approximately two kilometres at a leisurely pace, uncovering stories behind places you might otherwise pass by. Whether you’re visiting Sydney for the first time or rediscovering your own city, our blend of local knowledge, storytelling and hidden discoveries makes this a truly memorable way to experience The Rocks.
