Walking tours
Canberra can seem a bit quiet. A great way to get across the history is the 'She Shapes History' Walking tours that operate most days, and have a page on social media for bookings. These focus on Parliamentary history and the espionage history of Canberra.
Cách đi lại
Transport
Taking ubers or driving your own car is preferable in Canberra, where the bus system is good but not frequent. In cold weather you can be waiting up to 20 mins at a bus stop - most places are fairly short drives (5-15 mins) so tend to be good value via uber.
