We journey the streets between Central Station and the Australian Maritime Museum, but it is more than a walk in the present, we also walk the past of the wetlands of the Cadigal people, the estate area of Ultimo owned by John Harris and then walk our way into the present day charm and sophistication of Darling Harbour. Meet outside Exit 6 of Central Station (cnr. of Devonshire Street and Chalmers Street) 10 minutes before the tour starts so it can commence on time.

This walk will go ahead whatever the weather, except where the guide deems there to be a threat to health and safety. In this situation you will be contacted with an alternative date. Please ensure your mobile phone number is up-to-date with WEA before enrolling and make sure you take it with you on the day in case the tutor needs to contact you.
