Canberra offers the best of both worlds - easy to explore, small capital feel, combined with world-class institutions such as the Australian War Memorial, Parliament House and National Gallery.

Highlights of Canberra and surrounds: 

• Sunrise balloon flight over Canberra: clients can ascend in a colorful balloon and take in the views over the ACT from over 3000ft. The experience is completed with a glass of champagne once back on terra firma and the opportunity for a delicious buffet breakfast. A truly unmissable way to start the day.
• Step beyond Canberra’s polished surface and uncover the stories that once lived quietly in the shadows. Guided by a passionate local queer host, this immersive walk reveals the places where LGBTQIA+ Canberrans shaped history. From the site of the city’s first Pride Festival to the first privately (and female) owned gay club, and the park that became a safe meeting place when visibility wasn’t an option. Each stop brings a powerful chapter of Canberra’s queer story to life, celebrating the courage, resilience, and community spirit that helped change the social fabric of Australia’s capital.
• Clients can step inside Parliament House and discover the powerful stories of Australia’s First Peoples at the heart of the nation’s democracy. This guided experience brings to life the voices of Indigenous parliamentarians, explores the deeper history of the site, and reveals how Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples continue to shape Australia’s political story today. Along the way, guests encounter standout works from the Parliament House Art Collection, from the iconic Barunga Statement and Yirrkala Bark Petitions to striking contemporary portraits and major textile works in the Great Hall. It’s a thoughtful, eye-opening journey that connects art, history, and living culture in one of Australia’s most significant places.
• Ovolo Nishi: an accommodation with serious personality. Blending eco-conscious design with modern luxury, every room feels curated, creative, and effortlessly comfortable. Expect sustainable materials, bold artistic touches, and a stay that’s as stylish as it is thoughtful. Add in a gym, relaxed lounge spaces, and on-site dining that champions both local flavours and global inspiration, and you’ve got a hotel that feels perfectly at home in Canberra’s culture-forward, design-savvy scene.

   

Perfect for: 

• Culture seekers: from musuems, galleries and exhibits, clients who truly want to get under the skin and history of Australia will feel right at home here.
• Repeat visitors to Australia: clients may already have ticked off the big hitters such as Melbourne and Sydney, and want a more understated (and also underrated!) destination. Canberra offers all the hallmarks of a great city break: great culinary options, day trip experiences and compact CBD, without the crowds.
