Personalised Canberra Hop-On Hop-Off Sightseeing Tour

45 Reviews

1 hour to 6 hours

Overview

This is a flexible hop-on hop-off sightseeing bus around Canberra with a more personal feel than a standard big coach tour. Departing from the Canberra Museum & Gallery in the city centre, it covers many of the capital’s main attractions, including the embassies area and The Lodge. Rather than following one fixed guided route on foot, you get a timetable on board and choose where you want to get off and how long you want to spend at each stop. Entry fees are not included, so this suits travellers who want transport between key sights without committing to every attraction.

Free cancellation

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

Why backpackers love it

It’s a handy option if you want to see a lot of Canberra without sorting out multiple buses or locking yourself into one long guided tour. The city-centre departure keeps things simple, and the hop-on hop-off format gives you room to prioritise the places you actually want to visit. It won’t be the cheapest way to get around if you’re travelling on a very tight budget, but it does make a day of sightseeing easier, especially if you’re short on time or only in Canberra briefly.

What to expect

You’ll start from CMAG at 176 London Circuit and board an air-conditioned bus. Once on board, you’ll be given the timetable so you can plan your day in the order that suits you. The service visits many of Canberra’s major sights, and you can hop off at the attractions that interest you most, then continue on later services when you’re ready. Most attractions have cafes, which makes it easier to break up the day without much extra planning. Depending on demand, a smaller bus may be used instead of the standard vehicle.
