Omg it made my holiday. Our guide was so passionate and the stories they told and the sites they took us too we’re so interesting. I went with my mum and i’m at teen and I would definitely recommend it for other teens too, it was just so engaging and our guide was so friendly and nice and accommodating. I felt like if we lived in Canberra we could even have been friends.

Ripley was a great tour guide and really gave an insight into women in our history. Loved that she included her grandmother In the stories. Highly recommend.

I highly recommend this tour. As an older born Canberran I was very happily surprised to learn so much more about the hidden history of women during the tour. The guides were great! Very welcoming, warm and thoroughly engaging.

This tour was really well organised. It's clear they've done their research and put a lot of thought and consideration into the tour. They had some really interesting stories and facts to share. The tour goes past many Canberra institutions and monuments which the tour guides were happy to share information about. Would highly recommend!
