Thoroughly enjoyable and educational.

Thoroughly enjoyable, great views and pic opps! Interesting history of the area and buildings. Would highly recommend!

Nice experience to see...

Published on Feb, 2025

Nice experience to see river and city on short visit to get a perspective of the city. And small enough to not be overrun by others.

The activity itself was...

Published on Feb, 2025

The activity itself was very pleasant but couldn't hear the guide as to where things were located. It's a great way to see parts of Brisbane

Good evening Entertainment

Published on Feb, 2025

Very good Brisbane tour!

Published on Feb, 2025

Excellent Brisbane tour! Convenient location and departure times. Easy reservations and fair prices. Superfast check-in at the boat. Friendly crew, and very good pre-recorded narration with exactly the right amount of detail. Great bar with many local beers. We had prime upstairs open seats with a sunroof, and the crew was very skilled at lowering the rain curtains for a brief but entertaining downpour. The tour was a perfect mix of scenery, boating, architecture, fancy homes and historic houses and factories. You really got a sense of Brisbane through the ages, especially in WWII. My only wish was that they had sunset tours on more days, but they know their market. Thanks again for a wonderful introduction to Brisbane!
