Overview
If you don’t know the rivalry between Melbourne and Sydney, it goes a bit like this: Sydney people think we’re a bit stuck up (half true), while we think Sydney people have the depth of a bottle cap (absolutely true!).
Sydney may have its giant coat hanger and a snozzle of schnozzes (Harbour Bridge and Opera House), but we have The Holy Trinity: Coffee, Culture and…Conversation! And streets that are built for walking. Do you hear that, Sydney? Walking! It’s a verb.
No wonder we were voted the most liveable city 7 times in a row!
Let’s grab a coffee and come along on my irreverent walking tour where I take you on a journey of the Indigenous custodians, laneways and arcades, street art, how immigration built this city, the dubious characters, before finally cooling your heels at a riverside bar and finding out once and for all how this Sydney-Melbourne rivalry all began!
