From her many years working in heritage sites all around Sydney, Jo Henwood has the knowledge and enthusiasm to illuminate the meanings behind the places, to share the stories of unique individuals of the past and present, and to make sense of the Sydney we can explore today.

Jo is Accredited with the Institute of Australian Tour Guides and listed with Interpretation Australia.

Jo can tailor a tour to match your curiosity about the history and culture of this unique city and its stunning natural environment.
Please pass on a huge thank you to Jo who was a wonderful tour guide and seamlessly entertained and educated a gaggle of high spirited girls.
