Surry Hills Foodie Sidecar Package
The Sidecar Soirée
Tucked behind a quiet laneway in Surry Hills, Crystalbrook Albion is the sort of place that rewards those who like to discover a little more of a neighbourhood. This time, the adventure doesn’t stop at our front door.
Climb into a vintage sidecar with your guide Hugo and set off weaving through the leafy streets of Surry Hills and Darlinghurst. Think charming terraces, storied corners, and the sort of food and drink spots locals like to keep to themselves. Along the way, hop off at three or four handpicked stops to taste, sip and explore at your own pace.
Eventually, the city lights call you back.
Up on the rooftop, a bottle of celebratory bubbles is waiting, because discoveries are always better when toasted properly.
Morning arrives softly with complimentary tea, coffee, fresh fruit and pastries from the iconic Infinity Bakery.
A little adventure. A few hidden gems. And a stay at Crystalbrook Albion to bring it all together.
Package includes:
- 15% off overnight accommodation
- 90-minute private sidecar tour with Hugo, including 3–4 tasting stops of your choice
- A bottle of celebratory bubbles on the rooftop

*Food and beverages during the tour can be selected and enjoyed at your own pace, payable on the day.
Frequently asked questions
Are helmets provided?
Yes. NSW law requires a certified helmet, and we've got them in a range of sizes, complete with built-in audio so you can chat with Hugo along the way. Each comes with a freshly laundered liner, and we sanitise every visor and strap after each ride. Got your own approved helmet? You're welcome to wear it, just know Hugo might do a bit more shouting than usual.
What if I've never been on a motorcycle before?
No worries! No experience required, Hugo will talk you through everything before you set off. Sidecars are surprisingly smooth and stable, making for an easy (and exciting) first ride. Thank you for trusting us with your first ride!
What should I wear?
Dress for the weather and the adventure. You'll be outside so we strongly recommend sunscreen, and if you'll be riding on the back of the motorcycle at any point, long pants and enclosed shoes are essential. We'll sort you out with a jacket, gloves and helmet which has a clear fold-down screen, drop-down sun visor and is compatible with most sunglasses and spectacles.
What about rain or bad weather?
A little drizzle won't stop us. But if Hugo calls it unsafe to ride, we'll reschedule your tour or arrange a $150 hotel credit instead.
Are there age or weight restrictions?
You're never too old for a sidecar, but you can be too young. Riders must be at least 8 (with an adult chaperone until 18), weigh no more than 100kg, and be able to fit comfortably in the 45cm-wide sidecar seat, or reach the footpegs if riding on the back of the motorcycle.
Are your tours accessible for people with disability?
We welcome all riders and will happily make adjustments where we can, just let us know when booking if you need any specific adjustments to help you enjoy the ride. That said, for safety reasons the restrictions above do apply to everyone.
