Curated Canberra Excursions
Cellar doors that don't take walk-ins, galleries before the doors open, and helicopter legs over the Brindabellas — the concierge notebook, organised into bookable days out with transport, bookings and a host included.
The Notebook, Made Bookable
Our head concierge spent eight years collecting doors that open for him. These excursions are that network formalised — small groups, real access, transport included, and a host whose phone number becomes yours for the day.
The Murrumbateman Pour
Three cellar doors that don't take walk-ins — back-vintage shiraz, a garage producer, and lunch at the long table.
After-Hours Gallery
A private walkthrough of the National Gallery's major works before public opening — arranged through foundation partners.
Brindabella by Air
Thirty minutes over the ranges at golden hour, landing at a mountain vineyard for lunch — the most rebooked trip we run.
The Capital Circuit
Parliament House, the War Memorial and the lake — compressed into a half-day that skips the queues.
What a Day Looks Like
Every excursion is privately hosted — no strangers' timetable, no bus with a flag. Pickup at the porte-cochère, returns whenever the day says so.
- Departure from the porte-cochère, coffee in hand
- Host with booking authority at every stop
- Lunch reservations made — never left to chance
- Return drop-off at your floor's lift lobby
Booking a Day Out
One message starts it — the concierge does the phoning, booking and driving after that.
Tell us the mood
Wine, art, air or all three — plus your dates and any celebrations. The concierge shapes the day around it.

The host meets you at the door with the car — the day unfolds; the logistics stay invisible.

Concierge drew us a winery map across the Murrumbateman that no app would have produced. Book the excursion — do not think twice.
