Thank you for this memorable day trip to Canberra, which covered the important places in the Capital city. Thank you to our guide for the day for the elaborate & interesting stories/descriptions associated with the places we visited.

The tour was good. The bus went to Canberra with 1 break in between allowing us to stretch our body & have coffee. The places that we went in Canberra were excellent like, the Australian war memorial & the Parliament house. The driver could have let us know when we reached our exit point,though. As we are new in Australa, we didn't know when we reached our alighting point, hence we went further down that point. Upon asking later, we were told that we already passed the point. Suggestion to keep the passengers informed when they reach their alighting point.

The driver was also our guide and accompanied us exceptionally courteous, amiable, and provided us with insightful explanations throughout the tour. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and I wholeheartedly endorse this tour. Despite being a full-day excursion, it is certainly worth embarking on.

Our guide Piotr was amazing. So knowledgeable about everywhere we went: Museums, Parliament, Embassy Row and sites up and back. While the ride was long, he took breaks which made it much easier. HIGHLY recommend this tour and ask for Piotr!
