Historical True Crime Walking Tour of East Sydney

We did the Darlinghurst: Sex, Scandal & Murder Walking Tour. We thoroughly enjoyed this informative and entertaining tour. Elliot was amazing. He was friendly, informative and a great story teller. Highly recommend this tour.

What a great day we had. I took the tour with my wife, two daughters and their partners and although we were all born and bred in Sydney (bar one), with a basic knowledge of the city’s history, our tour guide, Elliot, added to what we knew. His knowledge combined with his storytelling were highlights of the tour. Elliot was engaging and passionate. He painted a picture through words and answered questions with the same knowledge and passion. I particularly liked how Elliot linked stories throughout the tour. The tour finishes at Kinselas in Taylor Square so we had lunch and stayed for a couple of hours. I’ve already recommended this tour to friends. 5 stars

Even though it’s a walking tour, you actually don’t walk terribly far, so don’t be put off. Our guide, Elliot, was extremely knowledgeable and very engaging. The historical subject matter was so interesting.

Very interesting and informative tour. Elliot was extremely engaging and his love of his local history really shone through. Thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you!

A really interesting walk around East Sydney / Darlinghurst. Loved the stories of having to use pub cellars as morgues & of course seeing where Tilly Devine & Kate Leigh "lived". Elliott is a fantastic guide full of interesting info. This is our 2nd tour with him. Looking forward now to the Surry Hills walk!

One of the best walking tours I have been on! Would go again. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the local area and answered every question.

Great tour and Elliott’s knowledge and colourful stories from the past was great looking forward to doing more. 😊😊😊

Elliot’s knowledge and entertaining story telling made this a very enjoyable tour. He chose an interesting route through the back lanes of East Sydney and Darlinghurst enhancing our experience with on the spot tales of colourful characters from the past. A fascinating few hours.

Excellent tour and Elliott has so much overall knowledge of the history of East Sydney, Elliott not only had extensive information on the riveting murder stories but he gave us a very good understanding of the sociological aspects from convict years to the 1970’’s

We enjoyed a great tour with Elliot. It was very interesting and his knowledge of the area, the people and the times was excellent.
