5.00We met at the Hyatt in Canberra. Our tour guide Veronica was right on time. We immediately started out and visited several sites around Canberra, centering on the area around the Old Parliament Building. Veronica shared an immense amount of information about the topic. It was clear that she had done her own research, and she shared quite a bit of it. She also shared information from other guides she knew. The stories are fun and interesting. The tour lasted 2 hours and it was chock full of information all the way through. The tour doesn't make you walk very far from the Hyatt, so it's not tiring. There's opportunity to sit in several places which was a nice break. She snapped a photo of us all and will send it to us with links with more information. This is very casual, informal type of tour with questions encouraged. I definitely recommend it, and there's other tours in Canberra and Sydney with more coming in other places. The cost is reasonable and 2 hours is a good length.
Wonderful storytelling and interesting stories

I will look for these tours wherever I travel and recommend strongly to all the women and men that I know, and those that I dont! Well done Sita. I would love a tshirt! I am looking forward to tours starting in Adelaide, my home town.

5.00Because Canberra is so spread out, the distances are greater than the usual walking tour. It wasn’t a problem for us but probably should be provided in the information.Tash our guide, was fantastic.

5.00This was a fascinating tour about Women in Espionage in Canberra. We were lucky enough to have 2 guides, Veronica and the owner of the business Sita. Both guides were very informative about the history of women in espionage in Canberra. They are expanding into Sydney and Melbourne which I am sure will be very successful. I would highly recommend these walking tours.
