Nice small group. Easy to locate meeting point. Fiorella did an excellent job of explaining all about the history of The Rocks. It was easy to hear her and her explanations were simple yet comprehensive. We felt we learned a great deal about the Rocks' history and its relationship to Sydney's past and present.

Our guide Vickie was wonderful. She was well spoken, well researched and welcomed questions from us all. I learnt a lot and I am Australian.

We signed up late the same day and just squeezed onto the PM tour as it was so popular. The guide was excellent in being clear and informative with the information as we walked around the Rocks area. We had mics/headsets so we could hear him. Excellent 1.5hrs spent and we learnt a lot whilst taking in the sights. A really nice part of Sydney with great bars and restaurants.

I’m a Sydney local who has lived here for 30 years. I had been to the Rocks many times but thought I’d do a tour to learn the history of the area. Our guide was Edith- she was amazing. Very knowledgeable and had many interesting stories about the area and original settlors. Highly recommended
