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

The Rocks Walking Tour was for the most part interesting and enjoyable.
Our guide used a portable speaker attached to her waist. This made it challenging to clearly hear her informative commentaries about local history unless you were standing next to her mostly due to local traffic and construction noises.
It would have been nice to have personal hearing devices.
While there are many levels to the Rocks area, the stairways and pace of walking were very comfortable for us.

Tour was terrific. We got to learn so many things about The Rocks before and after colonisation. Tour guide was knowledgeable and obliging. I would recommend this tour to others.

Could have covered more territory at the top end and towards the bridge itself. But reasonably interesting
