Canberra is modern city, set within extensive parks and gardens, its name is thought to mean ‘meeting place’, is derived from the Aboriginal word Kamberra. The design and layout of the city was planned by Walter Burley Griffin, a major 20th century American architect, who won an international design competition in 1912, incorporating significant areas of natural vegetation that have earned Canberra the title of the "bush capital".

The pick up and drop off at different locations was on time and driver was very friendly and knowledgeable too. Overall, had a very good time. Thank you.

Excellent - so much easier than driving - the tour was well run - on time and the host driver was great. I managed to see more attractions in my one day available than I would have been able to see over a weekend if I had to drive myself.
