This tour was a highlight of our Sydney holiday. Max is a very knowledgeable host who is passionate about Sydney’s early history. The tour was very engaging and well paced from start to finish. We learnt a lot, Max had a folder full of pictures to help bring the history alive. A lot of what was discussed on the tour was either still there or noted with monuments, artwork or plaques. The section where we walked through The Rocks settlement was like stepping back in time, it was fantastic to see the actual historic buildings (and in some instances ruins) still being used and cared for all these years later. I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in history, culture and the people of this place.
