Are you ready to discover Sydney’s secret?

Highlights

• Discover popular and lesser-known places in Sydney.
• Experience how, in only 11 years, Lachlan Macquarie rapidly transformed Sydney from a penal colony to a proud international city.
• Hang out with ‘Push Gang’ members and imagine how dangerous The Rocks would have been. 
• Find a spiritual connection to Sydney that will stay with you forever. 

Each clue will lead you from one place to another by providing you with exact directions so you won’t need a map, GPS, or guide. As you solve the problem and guess the answer, the secret story of that place is unlocked.

After you buy the quest, you’ll get your access code by e-mail which will be used in the app. The tour will take you about 1.5 hours to complete, but there’s no time limit which will allow you to go at your own pace. You won’t need a guide, just download the app, go to the starting point, and begin the adventure.

If you are a large group, one person can purchase access for the entire group by selecting the number of people in the group. All group members will be able to play the city game on their smartphone. Alternatively, each person can purchase their own ticket.

You can play as a group and solve the clues together as you walk, or you can split into smaller groups/teams and compete against the others. Each person can also play on their own, separate from the group, and meet the group at the end of the tour.
