About this tour

Trace the story of one of Sydney's oldest and most transformed suburbs. From a theatre saved from demolition by 600 people who refused to let it die, to the preserved studio of one of Australia's greatest artists, to the Victorian terraces that once housed immigrant families and now hold some of the city's best independent shops. Start with breakfast at the hotel and finish with Japanese whisky and izakaya plates at Groovy Nights downstairs. A relaxed, walkable loop through the layers of Surry Hills' past.
