Discover the story of Brisbane on this expert-led small-group walking tour, while hitting all of the city’s main attractions.

Perfect for those who have just arrived, as well as locals and those who want to go deeper in learning about Brisbane’s history, culture, society & First Nations people.

Starting from the top of Queen Street, you’ll hear about Brisbane’s colonisation by the British – and how their arrival impacted the original inhabitants.

Your guide will provide you with a range of perspectives on Brisbane’s development as you weave your way through the city. From tough penal colony origins to its more recent transformations as the city prepares to host the 2032 Olympics, you’ll discover the real Brisbane.

Your tour ends with beautiful views of the Brisbane River and Story Bridge, finishing at a popular drinking spot with a small beverage included.

Walk the streets in a small group so you’re not fighting to see & hear your guide or stay on the footpath.

As a solo traveler always appreciate a good walking tour as a way to get a feel for a city and to connect with other travelers. This tour was a great introduction to Brisbane and the tour guide added a lot of anecdotal history I would not have learned without the tour.

Really good and informative tour. Nice calm pace. Ended with refreshments and some small talk. Our guide Saskia was really good, spoke with a loud and clear voice, which was easy to understand, even for us from Denmark, who do not have English as a native speaker.
