Tour Trailer — Sydney's Convict Colony : A Walking History Tour of The Rocks & Circular Quay
A tour trailer by Journey Walks about the convict history walking tour we run in Sydney.
Once upon a time, a bizarre colonial
experiment took place on the rocky
shores of Sydney’s ancient harbour.
Thousands of miles from home,
England’s banished thieves were
locked in a prison with ocean walls,
forced to find food & cut through stone.
Defying the odds, their shanty camp
clutched to life on the banks of a
tiny stream. Gardens were grown,
goods were traded & rum soon
ranked as both currency & cure.
As centuries changed, legends grew
and The Rocks became full of rascals.
Scallywags sailed into shore, Larrikins
lurked in the laneways & many a clever
convict swapped their chains for riches.
Journey Walks invites you to
share a part in this remarkable story.
This tour will keep your ears pricked,
your eyes open and your passion for
the past brought to life

Walking in HYDE PARK - Beautiful Park in SYDNEY City Centre, AUSTRALIA
Walking in Hyde Park. Beautiful Park in Sydney City Centre, Australia.
Hyde Park is a heritage-listed 16.2-hectare (40-acre) urban park located in the central business district of Sydney, in the City of Sydney local government area of New South Wales, Australia, Hyde Park is the oldest public parkland in Australia. Hyde Park is on the eastern fringe of the Sydney city centre and is approximately rectangular in shape, being squared at the southern end and rounded at the northern end. It is bordered on the west by Elizabeth Street, on the east by College Street, on the north by St. James Road and Prince Albert Road and on the south by Liverpool Street.
Hyde Park is broadly rectangular with a rounded northern end. It is bisected east-west by Park Street and ringed by other major city streets (Liverpool and College Streets, Prince Albert Road, St.James' Road, Elizabeth Street) and stands in strong contrast to the closely built-up and intense environment of the city beside it. A climax at each end of the park is provided by the two major monuments of the Archibald Fountain at the northern and most populous end and by the solid bulk of the Anzac Memorial at the southern end. These two monuments are of essential importance to the park's design and character.
The centrepiece of Hyde Park is the Archibald Fountain. The fountain was designed by François-Léon Sicard and bequeathed by J. F. Archibald in 1932 in honour of Australia's contribution to World War I in France.
At the park's southern end is the ANZAC War Memorial behind the Pool of Reflection and the entrances to the Museum railway station. A monument consisting of a 105-millimetre (4.1 in) gun from the German light cruiser SMS Emden stands at Whitlam Square, at the south-eastern, Oxford Street entry of the park. It was built as a memorial to the Australian Imperial Force of World War I. Fund raising for a memorial began on 25 April 1916, the first anniversary of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) landing at Anzac Cove for the Battle of Gallipoli. It was opened on 24 November 1934 by His Royal Highness Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester.
Close to the ANZAC Memorial in the southern end of the park is Yininmadyemi - Thou didst let fall, a public artwork that acknowledges the service of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander men and women in the Australian Defence Force. The artwork by Indigenous Australian artist Tony Albert was unveiled on 31 March 2015 and was commissioned by the City of Sydney as part of its Eora Journey public art initiative.
The western, or Elizabeth Street side, at the Bathurst Street entrance of the park sits beside the 22-metre (72 ft) Obelisk decorated with Egyptian features. It was erected in 1857 and unveiled by the then Mayor, George Thornton.
In the northeastern sector, of the southern half of the park, there is a monument to Captain James Cook, erected to commemorate Cook's discovery of the east coast of Australia in 1770. The sculptor was Thomas Woolner (17 December 1825 – 7 October 1892) and the statue was cast by Cox & Sons, at its Thames Ditton Foundry, Surrey, England.

Manly City Centre - Manly NSW - Sydney Australia
Manly is a beach-side suburb of northern Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. It is 17 kilometres (11 mi) north-east of the Sydney central business district. Manly has a long-standing reputation as a tourist destination, owing to its attractive setting on the Pacific Ocean and easy accessibility by ferry.
Manly is most notable for its beaches which are popular tourist destinations. Manly features a long stretch of sand on the ocean side, that runs from Queenscliff through North Steyne to South Steyne . This is followed by rock pools and sandy beaches called Fairy Bower and Shelly Beach. There are also a number of beaches on the harbour side of the peninsula. Norfolk Island pine trees are symbolic of Manly and are a prominent feature of both the ocean and harbour beaches.
The commercial Manly is centred around The Corso, which runs from the harbour side at Manly wharf to the ocean side at Manly Beach. Part of The Corso is a mall which allows outdoor dining for cafes and restaurants. The commercial area extends to surrounding streets with more cafes and restaurants concentrated along the ocean and harbour shores.
The Corso is one of the main streets and a pedestrian mall in Manly. It connects the Manly ferry wharf to Manly Beach on the Pacific Ocean side of the Manly peninsula.
Transport services to Manly include a ferry service from Manly wharf and State Transit bus services to the city and other suburbs. The Manly Ferry journey takes 30 minutes and allows for scenic views of Sydney Harbour, surrounding national parks and Sydney icons including the Harbour Bridge and Opera House.
Manly has Sydney Harbour on its western side with calm water, ferry wharf, a swimming area, the Oceanworld Manly aquarium and sailing and yacht clubs. About 300 metres (1,000 ft) to the east is the Pacific Ocean and Manly Beach. There are more than 20 kilometres (12 mi) of cycle tracks that can be used to explore the area.

Hotel Review: Rendezvous Sydney Central, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia - August 2015
I stopped in the Rendezvous Sydney Central Hotel in August 2015, two of us stayed there for seven nights in an executive room with bed and breakfast for £616 (AU$ 1,316), this was booked via Booking.com. Sydney is not a cheap city to stay in at any time of year, and this was one of the better deals that I could find in a good quality hotel.
The hotel is located a 2 minute walk from Sydney Central Railway Station, a 10 minute walk from Darling Harbour, and a 30 minute walk from Circular Quay. We used public transport to explore the city and bought 'Opal' pre-pay travel cards.
Our room was large and comfortable with a good view. The hotel had given us a complimentary bottle of bubbly, which was a lovely touch. We had a good view of Railway Square and all of its goings on (I had requested a room on a high floor with a good view, and I got it).
With the executive room, you get one free drink per person per night from the bar, and a free breakfast each morning. The breakfast buffet was truly international, and included a range of options, I was enjoying curry for breakfast on some mornings!
The staff were all helpful and polite, and I have no complaints whatsoever about them.
The rooftop pool was too cold to use (apart from my one and only attempt at a swim), but the rooftop did offer superb views of the city skyline.
This film features all public areas of the hotel that we explored as well as a room inspection, and sample breakfast buffet - enjoy!

Sydney Metro: North West Line, full journey POV real time
Sydney’s North West Metro opened on 26 May 2019.
In the weeks before opening, a complete journey was captured in real time end-to-end from the Sydney Metro Trains Facility at Rouse Hill to Chatswood.
Sydney’s new driverless trains were in the final stages of testing, and completed 40,000 kilometres before services started. That’s 10 times around the equator.
Keep an eye out for:
• The Sydney Metro Trains Facility, where the trains are stored;
• The journey through the train wash building;
• The landmark Windsor Road railway bridge;
• Our skytrain stations;
• The dive into the tunnels and the underground stations;
• The massive underground rail crossover cavern at Castle Hill;
• Cherrybrook Station, where we see daylight before heading back underground;
• The internal curvature of the train as it rounds bends, see from one end of the train to the other;
• The transition from the new tunnels into the existing suburban tunnels outside Epping; and
• The distinctive design of the tunnels from Epping to Chatswood.
The line is being extended from Chatswood, under Sydney Harbour, through new city stations and beyond to Bankstown. In 2024, Sydney will have 31 metro stations and a 66km standalone metro railway.
Sydney Metro is Australia's biggest public transport project.
