Description:

Journey by coach to Canberra—Australia's capital city—on this 2-day excursion from Sydney. Listen to your guide and learn about the architectural landmarks such as Parliament House, The Lodge, and the National Library.

Along your way to Australia's capital, Canberra, stop in the calm village of Berrima and take a short walk along its peaceful river. Travel to Mount Ainslie's summit for a panoramic view of Canberra and nearby mountain ranges before you visit the War Memorial, home to an interesting display of war relics.

Subject to current exhibits, go to the National Museum or the National Gallery and wonder at the massive collections. After you gain insight into the workings of Australia's capital at Parliament House, visit The Lodge—the prime minister's official residence—and then spot the High Court and the National Library, the country's largest reference library.

Later, get a glimpse of the splendid, manmade Lake Burley Griffin and the lush, green gardens that surround it. Hear the bells chime from the National Carillon as your first day of adventure ends. On day 2, explore at your own pace and see a few of Canberra's other highlights, such as The Old Parliament House, Blundells Cottage, and Questacon technology museum, before your ride back to Sydney.
