Brisbane
Experience Brisbane’s rich history and architecture on this engaging driving tour. As we wind through the streets, you'll see the Brisbane City Botanic Gardens, Queensland's oldest gardens, before passing the transformative Queens Wharf Precinct with its luxury hotels and striking skydeck. We’ll drive by the Commissariat Store Museum, Brisbane’s oldest occupied building, and the Gothic Revival Cathedral of St Stephen. The journey continues past Customs House, distinguished by its copper dome, and Saint John’s Cathedral, home to the southern hemisphere’s only fully stone-vaulted ceiling. You'll see Anzac Square’s eternal flame, and the Albert Street Uniting Church alongside the majestic Brisbane City Hall. Glimpse the Old Windmill Observatory, Queensland’s oldest surviving structure, before passing the heritage-listed Spring Hill Baths and Brisbane Grammar Schools. Drive through Roma Street Parkland, a 16-hectare subtropical garden oasis in the city’s heart.
New Farm Park
Explore Brisbane’s charismatic inner-city suburbs, starting in riverside New Farm, just 2km from the CBD. Once known as Binkinba to the Turrbal people, it blends historic charm with modern urban living, featuring New Farm Park’s stunning rose garden of 2,500 blooms. Adjacent stands the Brisbane Powerhouse, a transformed 1920s power station now a dynamic arts venue hosting over 1,250 performances annually. The tour continues through Teneriffe, where grand brick wool stores reflect Brisbane’s industrial past, now reimagined as prestigious residences. Experience James Street in Fortitude Valley, transformed from industry to a premier lifestyle precinct with high-end boutiques, acclaimed restaurants, and The Calile Hotel. Stop near Newstead House, Brisbane’s oldest surviving residence, and stroll to the river. The journey continues in vibrant Fortitude Valley, or “The Valley,” where history meets contemporary culture in a precinct known for its entertainment, music, and artistic spirit.

Bring your camera, good walking shoes, water bottle, some local currency money or a credit card. March 2025, it was a cloudy day, but no rain during the tour. Moderate city traffic. Saw sites in Brisbane that tourists like to see and saw other non-touristy places. Trevor, driver/tour guide was friendly, personable, funny, and very informative.
