    This tour takes an in-depth look at The Sydney Opera House's design and construction, making this the ideal tour for those wanting to immerse themselves in the history and importance of this famous structure. 

    On this tour, you'll learn of the Sydney Opera House's origins, and how its construction changed the course of twentieth-century architecture. You'll hear the story of how a group of visionaries, idealists, architects, engineers, pragmatists, and artists came together built this architectural and engineering masterpiece. Starting from the mid-fifties, you'll journey through time, starting with stories of the building's initial design, to its construction,  and ultimately, you'll come to learn how it is still seen as one of the most important buildings in Australia.
