John, Wonderful Guide - Had a great time today with John, our guide. We were only four today on his bus and felt like we were getting a private tour. He was easy to talk to and provided great insights and suggestions. Highly recommend. 👍🏼😉

Our driver was very professional, knowledgeable of the interesting areas of the ACT. - Our driver John was the proprietor and was a very professional, considerate driver. He certainly knew Canberra's interesting attractions, and shared some fascinating experiences during our trip around the Capital.

Great Tour Guide - Great Driver/Tour Guide who loves his job with his delightful commentary. Information was very useful if you were visiting for the first time. I would suggest you do this trip on your first day as it will give you lots of info that you can then go off and do by yourself.

Lovely Trip - I am a retiree and met 3 other retirees on the bus. We spent the day together hopping off and on the bus. The driver was a great guide to the sites. He was also very attentive and took the time to remember the names of the passengers. I highly recommend!

Value for Money - The Driver suggested a new route to follow. There were no other passengers that day and he did a minor detour to the National Museum where I could view the Egypt Exhibition and not have to struggle finding transport options. I was dropped off mid morning and as this Exhibition was not listed on the tour drop off or pick up points - he showed me where to catch the only bus back to Canberra City - which was but a hop step and a jump away. Excellent. I was able to take photo opps from several distancing standpoints and this driver was willing to stop at each venue for but 5 minutes while I shot my photos and then drive on to the next venue. Overall it was a very useful exercise. Plus in addition the meeting point at the CMAG also enabled me to discover this excellent Exhibition site and have an enjoyable bite of Brunch there on my return. They actually pulled out all the stops there - putting out a welcome mat and reviewing the excellence of the Egyptian Antiquities site if I should ever get the opp to see it??? So all aims fullfilled in one go! Excellency of Service I could not beat!!?
