Sydney Highlights Walking Tour: Bridge Rocks House
Explore Sydney's history on a picturesque walking tour from The Opera House to The Harbour Bridge. Be blown away by the stories of the 5 controversial characters and events that shaped the city.

The overall distance covered is about 2.5km, so the short walks between stops will have you chatting away excitedly about what you’ve just learnt and eager to hear about Australia’s next controversial character. Along the way, your charismatic guide will make sure your camera roll is full of fantastic photos of you in front of Sydney’s famed sights. You will have seen the essential viewpoints of Sydney and learned the stories behind them.
