Overview

Journey through the private Parliament House courtyards this spring. Led by a friendly guide, this accessible tour is a rare opportunity to see the beautiful blooming flowers in courtyards not normally open to the public.

This tour is designed to move at a slower pace, with accessibility being key. You will pause in various courtyards, and see how sculptures, plant selections and colours make each courtyard unique. You will also learn about Parliament House's stunning landscape architecture and design.
