Founded following the federation of the colonies as the seat of government for the new nation, Canberra has a unique purpose, setting, character and symbolism. Shaped around a man-made lake, surrounded by the bush, and set in amphitheatre of hills, the nation’s capital is an exciting meeting point of world-class art, museums, politics, and diplomacy.

Travel through the Southern Highlands with glimpses of sheep and wild kangaroos, pause at enigmatic Lake George, and wander Canberra’s diplomatic avenues past embassies and high commissions.

Decided to take a tour of Sydney before we ventured on our own Hired Mark Wachtl www.wachtlaustralia.com.au. And it was great. Mark picked us up at the airport and took us all over the city and out to Bondi Beach where we stopped for lunch. We got an overall view of the city as well as some history. Mark was friendly and knowledgeable. He gave us a map when we finished the tour, circling where we had been and suggestions of where we might want to go. He said to call him if we had any questions. He’s a great guide and I would recommend him.
