Badass Women of Sydney: Meet the Women Who Shaped the City

This isn’t your standard walking tour of Sydney.

This tour is for anyone who’s ever asked, “Where are the women in Sydney’s history?” It’s for travellers who want to get off the beaten path and discover a side of the city that few ever see — but everyone should know.

Led by She Shapes History, this experience takes you from the heart of Darlinghurst to the State Library of NSW, uncovering powerful stories of women who built underground art scenes, challenged the law, ran criminal empires, opened safe spaces, and redefined what leadership, community, and resistance could look like.

You’ll meet artists, activists, organisers, and everyday rebels who reshaped Sydney — and Australia — in ways you’ve probably never heard about. Come curious. Leave inspired.
