About this tour
John runs a flexible hop-on hop-off service around Canberra's main sights, departing from the Museum & Gallery in the city centre. Rather than following a fixed itinerary, you pick which attractions to visit and when, using the timetable provided onboard. The air-conditioned bus lets you set your own pace through embassies, Parliament House, The Lodge, and other landmarks across 1 to 6 hours. No entry fees are charged for the bus itself, and cafés operate at most stops.

What to expect
You'll board at the Museum & Gallery and receive a printed timetable showing all stops and departure times. Unlike standard tours, you're free to hop off at whichever attractions interest you—whether that's an embassy, a particular monument, or a government building—then catch the next bus when ready. The vehicle stays cool and comfortable between stops. Most major Canberra sights are covered, so you can see what matters to you without feeling rushed. Cafés at most stops mean you can grab lunch or a coffee on your schedule.
