Amazing Experience with John - John is a great tour guide. He was always on time from wherever he had to pick/drop us, and he even sang for us a few songs before our departure. Overall, loved the concept of Hop on and Hop off, will recommend everyone to take the earliest slot possible for you, so that you can cover most of the places.

Hop on hop off bus, must do. - You get information about Canberra that you wouldn't know of if you just drove around yourself. You can't see everything in one day though unfortunately. So pick 2 or 3 places to see. Start early if you can. It will take you all day. John is a friendly tour guide. Thanks John.

Great way to see Canberra - A great way to see the sights of Canberra! John was a great guide. Could answer all my questions and gave me a clear timeline, bus was on time and john gave great advice for me to make my solo choices on. Saw two great things I wouldn't have known about otherwise.

Great way to start an ACT visit - Great for us time poor people. John is very knowledgeable and genuine. He offers suggestions based on personal taste and needs that seemed spot on for us and the others sharing the bus with us. We have a car so did what we could with John and made our itinerary for the remainder of our stay based on all we had learnt from him. John is very good at planning and time management, making pick up and drop offs stress free. I would recommend starting a visit to Canberra with this tour and asking John for suggestions about the how to best use the rest of your time in ACT.
