The Gift of Time: Anzac Day in Canberra
There is a certain season in life where the rush of the “everyday” fades and is replaced by the opportunity to truly linger in the places that matter. This April, we invite you to join us on an 8-day journey to the heart of the nation, a trip designed for those who appreciate history, heritage and the brilliance of an Australian autumn.
An Unforgettable ANZAC Day Experience
For many, a visit to the Australian War Memorial is a lifelong ambition, but the logistics of visiting during our national day of remembrance can feel overwhelming. We believe such a significant moment should be felt, not managed. On this tour, you’ll take part in the moving Dawn Service on April 25th, followed by the veterans’ march. We’ve arranged personalised guides to walk you through the Hall of Memory and the Roll of Honour, concluding with the powerful Last Post Ceremony. It is a seamless, dignified way to pay your respects without the stress of navigating the crowds alone.
Savouring the Journey
Beyond the capital, our journey takes a delicious turn as we savour the region’s finest local flavours. We believe a great trip should nourish the soul and the palate alike. You’ll enjoy a nostalgic stop at the iconic Beechworth Bakery, indulge your sweet tooth at the Junee Chocolate Factory, and enjoy artisan Milawa Cheese tastings. These moments offer a chance to slow down and truly enjoy the craftsmanship of the region.
Autumn in All Its Glory in Victoria’s High Country
There is no better time to visit the High Country than during the Bright Autumn Festival. You’ll have the chance to wander through the alpine township of Bright, admiring the brilliant changing leaves and sampling fresh local produce. We also take the time to visit Tahbilk Estate for a wine and history tour, allowing you to savour the region’s flavours in a stunning, historic setting.
