About this tour

“History and Culture of Sydney” is a self-guided walking tour in Sydney, Australia, made by Crowne Plaza Sydney Darling Harbour. It takes about 3 hours, costs a one-off A$3 to unlock and runs in your phone’s browser with a live map, so you can start whenever you like. No app or account needed.

Walk through centuries of Sydney's story, from a convict barracks built in 1819 to a Gothic cathedral that took over 100 years to complete, to one of the most powerful war memorials in Australia. Start with a coffee at Café 58 in the hotel and finish with native Australian cocktails at Two 88 Bar & Kitchen downstairs. A relaxed, walkable loop through the heart of the city that most visitors walk right past without knowing what they're missing.
