What To Expect
Mount Ainslie Lookout
One of Canberra’s most beautiful vantage points at the top of Mount Ainslie. From the lookout, your guide will explain the growth of a young city, the two-tiered colonial and capital city history and point out places of interest and key attractions, all while you survey the tremendous design of Canberra’s architect, Walter Burley Griffin.
Duntroon
Expect a drive through the grounds of the Royal Military College Duntroon - Australian Army's officer training establishment and perhaps to Mount Pleasant where you’ll be delighted to an alternative aspect overlooking central Canberra.

I would suggest this is the tour you do on your first day and Canberra and you will quickly learn there is so much to see and do.

5.00Fantastic tour of Canberra. Gave us a great insight in to the formation and functioning of the city. Our guide was easy to talk to and super knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything. There wasn't too much of the city we didn't get shown. Would definitely recommend this tour and I now have a better appreciation of Canberra as a city and a capital.
