Please call us to let us know and we will do our best to make sure you don&rsquo;t miss the bus. However, like a train or plane, we do have a timetable and other passengers to consider. Refunds will not be given if you miss the bus.

Our tours operate in all kinds of weather &ndash; rain, hail or shine! We may slightly adjust the itinerary if necessary to keep you dry or warm but you won&rsquo;t miss out on anything.

<ul>
	<li>We recommend you bring a water bottle, camera, hat, sunscreen, a jacket in cooler months &amp; money to buy any extras such as souvenirs &amp; snacks</li>
	<li>Dress comfortably for the season you are visiting. We always recommend a jacket for Blue Mountains or Canberra as it can be cooler, even in the warmer months.&nbsp;We also recommend wearing enclosed walking shoes as there is some walking involved on most of our tours</li>
</ul>

We don&rsquo;t have toilets on the bus but don&rsquo;t worry, we make plenty of comfort stops during the day.

Join a memorable Canberra day trip including a visit to the Floriade for the very best way to explore the sights of our nation&rsquo;s capital,&nbsp;plus a little bit extra! Travel with a small group&nbsp;through Australian bush and sheep country and visit all of Canberra&rsquo;s highlights during a fun and personalised day out.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Get collected from Sydney early morning as you join your friendly guide&nbsp;en route to the Bush Capital, cruising the New South Wales Southern Highlands through typical small Australian country towns. Stop along the way so that you can&nbsp;grab a coffee (own expense) and stretch your legs before arriving at Canberra. Here you will take a guided tour at Canberra Parliament House,&nbsp;an architectural masterpiece costing $1.1 billion. From the inner walls of power to walking on the roof, this is an amazing spot to explore.

&nbsp;

Take a break for lunch (own expense) before you head to the iconic event of Floriade, which runs one month a year (from mid-September to mid-October) and showcases one million flowers in bloom throughout Canberra&#39;s Commonwealth Park!&nbsp;After your time walking around this&nbsp;flower lovers&#39; paradise, you will be taken&nbsp;on a visit to the Australian War Memorial. Time for reflection as you&#39;ll learn about the ANZACs, the legends of Gallipoli,&nbsp;and all of the sacrifices and losses suffered by Australians in past wars fought around the world.

&nbsp;

Afterwards,&nbsp;take a drive through Yarralumla, one of Canberra&#39;s largest suburbs for a close look at the many National Embassies. Each embassy is uniquely designed to reflect aspects of their country&#39;s culture!&nbsp;After a fun and fact-filled day, you will head&nbsp;back to Sydney.
