Australian Institute of Sport

Australians have a well documented love affair with sport, and so it comes as no surprise that the Australian Institute of Sport is one of our national treasures. Enjoy a glimpse into the world of our elite athletes on a fantastic guided tour - you might even see one of our sporting heroes hard at work!

Parliament House

Far more than just home to our political heavyweights, Parliament House is also renowned for its impressive architecture, landscaped gardens and art collection of Australian contemporary art - not to mention the 81 metre flag mast soaring above the building. The highlight, however, has to be a visit to the public galleries during question time, held at 2:00pm daily while Parliament is sitting.
