Great tour for visitors and locals - Great tour. Eleri was great - lots of information and really engaging. Recommend for visitors AND locals - those of us who drive through the Triangle all the time and don’t stop to learn about the place.

Fantastic walking tour! - This is a fabulous walking tour! Our guide, Eleri, was so knowledgeable and lots of fun. So much interesting and important history about the women who shaped Canberra. The walk around the Parliamentary Triangle and the amazing views were an added bonus. I strongly recommend anyone visiting (or living in) Canberra to book a tour!!!

Must attend. - Excellent tour, well informed and researched. Interesting, thought provoking, humourous, accessible and friendly. We selected this tour because Spies in the capital wasn't running on the day we were in Canberra, but still worth every minute. We'll be back for the other tours soon. Highly recommend.
