ITINERARY DAY 1 • Book a Canberra Secrets Personalised Tour to appreciate the many hidden gems within the national attractions on a full or half day tour. Or join the Canberra Guided Tours team for an enthusiastic introduction to Australia’s national capital. • Take a lap around (or on) magical Lake Burley Griffin. Hire portable Brompton bicycles from the Canberra and Region Visitors Centre or learn to Segway with SegGlideRide. Better yet, join a classic MV Southern Cross Cruise to take in the surrounding sights, spin your legs on a colourful Capital Paddle Boat or indulge in an decadent picnic aboard a Scandinavian GoBoat. • Explore the impressive and thought-provoking collections of art and history at both the National Portrait Gallery and the National Gallery of Australia. Located adjacent to each other, you can spend your morning uncovering highlights including national portrait prize winners and the famous ‘Blue Poles’ by Jackson Pollock. From 12.30–2pm daily, walk through Fujiko Nakaya’s moody fog sculpture in the Sculpture Garden. • Only 35 minutes from Canberra’s city you can sample cool climate wines from the Canberra district wine region. Pair a tempting drop with exceptional cheese platters and chocolates. With 30 cellar doors to choose from, drop in for a friendly experience. • Finish the day with a perfect sunset at National Arboretum Canberra — home to 20km of walking tracks and botanic beauty. DAY 2 • Go behind-the-scenes at Australia’s Parliament House. You can watch Question Time when Parliament is in session. Marvel at the architecture, explore the impressive marble foyer, wander the gardens and enjoy the world-class artworks. Spend a moment hunting for the Halley’s Comet in the legendary Bayeux Tapestry within the magnificent Great Hall. You can also take a free guided tour or purchase a private behind-the- scenes option. • On Saturdays and Sundays, join an relaxed brewery tour at Capital Brewing Co. The team will show you how they turn malt, hops, water and yeast into tasty beers! Then sip a cold ale while you devour a hearty Brodburger in the beer garden. • Walk or drive up to Mount Ainslie Lookout for spectacular views across Canberra’s bush vista. Listen for the native birds and see the wildlife. • The Australian War Memorial is a special highlight for all visitors. It is a world-class museum, shrine and research centre, with something for all ages. You can also see many memorials along Anzac Parade. Stay until 4.55pm for the moving daily Last Post Ceremony to commemorate a fallen hero. CANBERRA HIGHLIGHTS Brodburger National Gallery of Australia Shaw Vineyard Lake Burley Griffin
