Canberra Tours for Seniors & Retirees

Absolutely. Our coaches feature easy-access steps with sturdy handrails, and every Canberra attraction visited has excellent accessibility — lifts, ramps, accessible bathrooms, and seating throughout. We regularly accommodate guests using walkers, folding wheelchairs, and mobility scooters. Just advise us of your requirements when booking and we'll make specific arrangements.

Everything. Your price includes comfortable air-conditioned coach transport with hotel pick-up, your expert local guide, all entry and admission fees, morning tea with quality tea and coffee, and on full-day tours, a two-course lunch at a selected accessible restaurant. There are no hidden costs or additional expenses during the day.

Half-day tours run 3–5 hours; full-day tours run 6–8 hours. All tours operate at a comfortable, relaxed pace specifically designed for senior travellers. We allow 60–90 minutes at each major site with regular rest breaks every hour. If you need to sit while others explore a little further, that is always accommodated without any fuss.

Yes. When Parliament is sitting — typically February–June and August–December — our Parliament House tours include the opportunity to watch Question Time from the public galleries. We can't guarantee seating as it operates on a first-come-first-served basis, but our guides are expert at timing the visit to maximise the opportunity. We also know the parliamentary schedule well in advance, so we can advise which dates are most likely to offer Question Time access.

No problem at all. We accommodate vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, and diabetic-friendly requirements, as well as other dietary needs on request. Simply advise us when booking — we communicate your requirements to all venues and restaurants in advance so you don't need to repeat yourself throughout the day.

We pick up from central Canberra locations and most major hotels in Canberra and Queanbeyan. When you book, let us know where you're staying and we'll confirm the nearest pick-up point and time. If your hotel or accommodation isn't on our regular route, we'll arrange a convenient nearby meeting point.

Comfortable, flat-soled walking shoes are the most important thing. Dress in layers — temperatures between outdoor areas and heavily air-conditioned institutions can vary significantly. Bring a hat and sunscreen for outdoor portions, any medications you require, and a camera. We provide bottled water on the coach throughout the day.

Free cancellation with a full refund is available up to 48 hours before your tour. Cancellations within 48 hours receive a 50% refund or full credit toward a future booking. We also offer flexible rescheduling — just call us and we'll do our best to accommodate changed plans. Full terms are available on our cancellation policy page.
