Our Story
From Inspiration to Best Free Tours Sydney
Every great journey starts with a single step. Best Free Tours Sydney was born from a love of travel, discovery, and the joy of connecting with locals. What began as an idea while exploring Europe has grown into a collection of unforgettable walking tours and private guided experiences in Sydney, Melbourne, and the Blue Mountains.
Where It All Started
While travelling across Europe, our founder realised how valuable it is to meet a local on the very first day in a new city. A short walk with someone who knows the streets, culture, and hidden gems makes every other moment of the trip more meaningful. That spark of inspiration showed the true magic of free walking tours – the perfect mix of history, recommendations, and authentic stories.
Bringing the Idea Home
With this knowledge, we created Best Free Tours Sydney. Our goal was simple – to offer locals and visitors the same unforgettable experience we had overseas. A walking tour that combines iconic sights like the Sydney Opera House, The Rocks, and Hyde Park with stories that bring them to life. A tour that feels welcoming whether you are new to the city, travelling solo, or exploring with friends.

Growing Beyond Free Tours
Over time, our journey has expanded. Today, we not only run Free Walking Tours in Sydney and Melbourne, but also offer Private Sydney Tours for couples, families, and small groups, as well as Blue Mountains Day Trips where you can discover breathtaking lookouts, waterfalls, and charming villages. No matter the tour, the heart of our story stays the same – real guides, authentic storytelling, and experiences that connect you with each place.
The Journey Continues
From a simple idea in Europe to welcoming travellers across Australia, our story is still being written. Every tour brings new people, new stories, and new memories. We cannot wait to share the next chapter with you.
