What we’re about
This group is for anyone interested in eating, drinking and exploring more of Sydney, while making friends from all over the world.
The organisers of the group include full-time tour guides who regularly organise fun tours, activities and meetups all around Sydney, with a focus on exploring inner-city areas and discovering more about the city - whether that is history, secret bars, restaurants, street art or local hidden gems.

Perfect for those who have just arrived, as well as locals and those who want to go deeper in learning about Australian history, culture, society & First Nations people.
Starting from Customs House, you’ll hear about Sydney’s colonisation by the British – and how their arrival impacted the original inhabitants, the Cadigal people of the Eora nation.
Your guide will provide you with a range of perspectives on Sydney’s development, introducing Aboriginal people, British governors, convicts & entrepreneurs, and other multicultural migrants, as you weave your way through the city centre.
You’ll also walk through part of The Rocks and finish at a popular brewery with harbour views of both the Bridge and the Opera House. At the end of the tour, your host will give you a custom-made map with heaps of recommendations to make the most of your time in Sydney: food, nightlife, art and much more – stuff you won’t find in any guidebook!
