We know that the ultimate way to get to know a city is with a local, doing things that they do. Each season we share a different part of Newcastle that we really love. Exclusively for ART Conference this Spring: Cooks Hill and Newcastle East.

Our business owner Becky will share with you an exceptional little part of Newcastle that is rich with diverse heritage, culture, and stunning streets. Walking through the city from City Hall to Newcastle East, we will explore hidden secrets not often discovered by visitors. We want you to get the most of this neighbourhood, so we have worked out a way to show you its history and what it's about, and we can cover any particular interests you have along the way.

You will spend 5 hours with Becky including lunch, wandering through her favourite areas and exploring cute streets, old hidden houses, drinking holes and cafes. You will learn about what makes Newcastle unique, including the creative scene, street art and even meeting local makers, and find bars and cafes that only the locals know about.

This exclusive ART Conference walking tour will give you the opportunity to ask questions about what makes Newcastle tick, as you explore the contrasts of the old and new parts of the city.
