Join us for a special one-day historical tour to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the passing of Michael Dwyer — Irish rebel, convict, settler, and folk hero. This guided journey will explore key sites in Western and Eastern Sydney connected to Dwyer’s remarkable life and legacy.

Tickets are limited to 20 for now, due to the capacity of the bus. However, if the tickets sell out, and a sufficient number of people join the waitlist, we will consider hiring a larger bus to expand the capacity of the tour.
