Mrs. Macquarie's Chair is actually a sandstone platform with a hand-crafted bench hewn from it, carved by convicts in 1810. The name of this picturesque location as well as Mrs. Macquarie's Point was derived from the fact that the wife of the then NSW Governor favoured this spot for its spectacular views.

After the morning portion of your tour, you’ll have a two-hour lunch break (own expense) at Darling Harbour or you may opt to purchase a Captain Cook Lunch Cruise on Sydney Harbour (see Optional Add-on)

Cross the Sydney Harbour Bridge and stop at Milsons Point for spectacular views of the Sydney Opera House, Harbour Bridge and city skyline. Located on the lower North Shore, Milsons Point is a scenic suburb and home to some of Sydney's most exclusive homes, schools, cafes, restaurants and boutique stores. Many of the buildings within Milsons Point have been historically preserved from as early as the 1800s, making the sweeping views of the Opera House and Sydney Harbour even more interesting.

Return to The Rocks area and discover the birthplace of modern Australia on a guided walking tour. Wander the cobbled laneways and learn the rich history of the area from a British colony of convicts and sailors to a thriving entertainment precinct. Once home to the Indigenous Gadigal people, The Rocks was then claimed by the Europeans in 1788 and much of the original layout still remains. This vibrant spot is situated at the base of the Harbour Bridge and is full of world-class restaurants, historical pubs, boutique stores and art galleries.
