Brisbane is often called the "River City" and it's easy to see why, the river snakes its way through the city and suburbs highlighting some of the best features. See the prominent historical and and architectural buildings including City Hall, Parliament House, St Johns Cathedral, Treasury Casino.
Then, take a river cruise with a delicious 'Devonshire Tea' of fresh scones with jam and cream, followed by a ride on the Brisbane Wheel. The wheel stands 60 meters high and has fully enclosed air-conditioned capsules offering unique panoramic 360 degree views. Each ride is of 12 to 15 minutes duration.
The tour concludes at South Bank with time to explore the many attractions including the state art galleries, museum and cultural centre. Gold Coast passengers will have the afternoon free to explore Brisbane at your own leisure, either stroll grounds at South Bank or venture across the river to the city centre for shopping, before being returned to their hotel late in the afternoon.
Why not make a day of it and upgrade to include the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary, the world’s first and largest koala sanctuary to cuddle a koala.

Pickup from Hotel on time, tour was excellent and driver gave us all that we needed to know and happy to answer questions. No way could have I seen Brisbane on my own as comprehensively as tis tour gave. Highlite for me was the river cruise, relaxing, full of information and the best and biggest scones with jam and cream
