Balmain: Rust, Radicals and Razors. I was blown away by, and totally mesmerised by the history and knowledge that Elliott forwarded onto all of us. The best walking tour I've ever been on.

Adam Grossetti lead our tour through the streets of Potts Point and surrounds. He was very knowledgeable and presented in a easy and engaging way. After watching his 3 part series, this tour highlighted the connection between The Black Hand in Queensland and events in Sydney's underworld. Highly recommend!

This walking tour was a memorable and highly worthwhile experience. Elliot is remarkably well-informed about the fascinating history of inner Sydney. His passion for his subject is inspiring. I now find myself looking at Surry Hills in an entirely new way.

Great tour. Elliot is easy to listen to and knows what he is talking about. He makes it so interesting and as I did it with a group he gave more detail on our area of interest.

The Balmain walk was fascinating, standing on the spot of some pretty gruesome crimes. Elliott is very knowledgeable and the photos were helpful to visualise what the area was during the periods being described.

The best price walking in Sydney. 100% satisfaction. Cancellation policy is top tier. If you need to. I can’t wait to do them all. Elliot is the goat. Just finished the tour with Adam Grosetti and the black hand gang. Another great and interesting voyage through the Italian deep crime connection and the QLD canecutters. Highly recommended. Well done Adam. Can’t wait for the book Elliot. It’s gonna be amazing.

We did the 2 Hour walk on 03/05/2025. The history and the stories that Elliot shared with us was great. He even keeps you in the story process as to guess the outcome. His knowledge and Photos throughout the walk, 2nd to none. Would highly recommend this tour. Thank You Elliot.

Spent a fascinating three hours walking Surry Hills with Elliot, an incredible storyteller who brought the area’s pub culture and past vividly to life. I knew very little about this side of Sydney, and suddenly the streets were full of characters, history and colour. Informative, entertaining and eye‑opening — I’ll never walk Surry Hills the same way again.
