Tour Overview

Step into the past and walk the streets of Sydney through the eyes of Eleanor Fraser, a female convict transported in 1825.
This immersive self-guided tour invites you to experience a single day in her life—from her arrival in chains to the hard labour and quiet defiance that marked her every step.
Follow Eleanor’s journey through The Rocks as she unveils the hidden stories of survival, strength, and resistance etched into the stones of this early colonial town.

Narrated by Eleanor herself, this atmospheric tour blends history, drama, and human emotion into a powerful storytelling experience.

Includes 12 immersive stops—each featuring cinematic films, dramatic narration, and true colonial history brought vividly to life.
