Spies and Secrets in the Capital: Women in Espionage Walking Tour

Not many people think “espionage” when they imagine a visit to Canberra.

We’re here to change that. Canberra has a fascinating and unique history of spies, intrigue and covert operations hidden behind its iconic landmarks.

Join us for a walk through Canberra’s National Triangle and go beyond the guidebooks. We start at the Hyatt Hotel before heading to Albert Hall, visiting a hidden underground bunker at West Block, an ex-ASIO office and Old Parliament House, before finishing right back where we started.

Come for a relaxed, easy walk, deepen your understanding of Canberra’s hidden history of women in espionage, and meet the unlikely candidate for Australia’s best spy. This is a tour that will stay with you long after the walk ends. Don’t be surprised if you leave wondering if your Mum was once a spy...
