The commentary I give on this guided walk is about the culture and structure of traditional Dharawal society, the colonial history and the industrial revolution in Sydney.
If you are interested in one theme more than the others, that's what I'll focus on.
Two of the Dharawal clans lived on country we will explore; the Gadigal and Wangal. We will discuss their lives both before and after colonisation (invasion).
Between 1788 and the 1850s, colonists persued basic activities such as boat building, fishing, milling grain and basic commerce.
From the 1850's Darling Harbour was the cente of the Industrial Revolution in Australia. It was a world leader in a number of industrial developments.
Best of all, this is a wonderful scenic walk with many photo opportunities, and I'm always more interested in what you want to know about, than what I have to share.
We begin at the Sydney Town Hall and Queen Victoria Building; two of Sydney's most stunning sandstone buildings. We then walk down Market St. to Darling Harbour, out to Barangaroo and around Millers Point to The Rocks.
Two and a half hours that you will remember for years. Phone, email or text me for more information..
This tour of Watsons Bay, takes in the colonial social history of the families who provided the pilot and rescue services, manned the signal station and lighthouse and fished the ocean off the heads.
While limited to 5 people, please contact if your date fully booked as I can often fit you in.
I donate 25% of your payment to the Indigenous Literacy Foundation. I expect $30.00 per person or $50.00 per couple.
At Watsons Bay, which I regard as my spiritual home, I will take you on a walk around the two sides of the fishing village and then out onto South Head.
We will explore the history of the Birrabirragal people and the European settlers and their families who formed a tight community that existed from 1788 to the 1960s.
This walk has some of the best views of the harbour and city. I will show you one of the largest Moreton Bay fig trees you will ever see, and few visitors to the bay know about.
This involves a ferry trip to and from Watsons Bay at a cost of approx. $AUD14.00.
