Travelling to the administrative centre of any country doesn’t sound like the premise for a great weekend, but hey, most countries' administrative centre is not the glorious Canberra. Packed with history, but compounded by modern chic, Canberra has transformed into the coolest city in Australia and you can explore it all.
Based in the vibrant Braddon neighbourhood, where every street hosts chic coffee roasteries, vibrant restaurants and an incredible coffee shop culture, you have the ideal spot to explore the city. From this base, we will take you out on a full day of exploration to truly immerse yourself in the history and culture of this incredible city.
The first stop on your tour takes you up the slopes of Mount Ainslie, which provides amazing views over the whole city. Your expert guide will let you know the history of the city, how it grew and what districts you are about to visit before you zoom down the hill and get stuck into this fascinating tour. Taking you through the most immersive Parliamentary tour you can get, you will walk the corridors of power at Parliament House and Old Parliament House before finishing off at the Australian War Memorial, for a tearful and poignant end to an incredible day.
