Canberra Tours & Activities

The weather in Canberra can vary quite a lot between seasons, so it really depends on what style of adventure you'd like to have!

With blooming flowers, pleasant temperatures, and a number of festivals and markets to explore, Spring and Summer are especially lovely for anyone chasing the Aussie sun. Autumn and Winter, on the other hand, offer the perfect weather for exploring Canberra's historical landmarks, staying warm with a locally-made wine, and enjoying the beautiful Snowy Mountains nearby.

Without a doubt! We have several day trip options to help you visit all the best city sights and enjoy the full Canberra experience in just one day.

Yes! Canberra's food scene is booming with trendy cafes, gourmet restaurants, and local markets offering delicious treats, making it a real paradise for foodies.

Actually, no! Canberra hasn't always been the capital of Australia. However, if you're confused because you thought it was Sydney, we're about to confuse you even more… Sorry!

Sydney has never been the capital of Australia; that's just a myth (sorry, Sydney). Melbourne, however, did serve as Australia's capital once upon a time, acting as the interim seat of government from 1901 until Canberra was officially established in 1927.

To add to the intrigue, Canberra was actually established as a compromise between Sydney and Melbourne, who both wanted to be the capital so badly that neither city ended up with the title. Instead, the federal government built Canberra between the two cities as a way of keeping everyone happy. Did it work? Well, that's yet to be seen. Perhaps we Aussies aren't such a laid-back bunch, after all…
