Colony
This tour departs from Customs House and covers Millers Point and The Rocks. The earliest European
Sydneysiders - convicts, soldiers, whalers and sailors - all walked this route. The Rocks and Millers Point
have been overlaid by generations of change, but among the bustling modern city streets remnants and
traces of these early times can be found.

Passion
Kings Cross, along with its adjoining locales of Potts Point and Elizabeth Bay, has a rich and risque history.
Once the domain of grand houses and stylish apartments, it has also been the haunt of artists, actors,
writers and musicians. 'The Cross' eventually became the city's red light district and an entertainment zone
that never sleeps. Departing from Kings Cross Station, the circular route uncovers the history of Sydney's
bohemian wild side.

from Pyrmont Bridge, this tour visits key sites in the industrial and maritime history of Sydney, as well as
exploring an often overlooked Sydney community.
