Amazing walking tour today with Bruce. He was so knowledgeable about the city's history and…read morearchitecture and was so personable. He also repeated important dates for us, so when our tour ended, we were able to retain this new info! We enjoyed a trip up the city hall belltower, a ferry ride, a nice coffee break all in between the 3 hours walking the beautiful city. Highly recommend! PS - had I known he wouldn't accept a cash tip we would have bought him coffee!

We spent a wonderful couple of hours exploring the city of Brisbane yesterday morning with Maggie…read more A small group of six which made it easy to hear all the information being given. We typically do a tour like this when we first land in a city to get a feel of the area and she did just that as well as learning some other fun facts you typically would not know just walking by a place. Highly recommend. It is a free service and the greeters do it out of their love for the city - you surely can't beat that. Thank you

***WESTERN TOUR*** Great tour and day out. See some city breweries but also some bigger setups just…read moreoutside the city so get the best of both worlds. Treated like royalty at every location due to what appeared to be the connection between hop on brewery tours and the breweries. Head brewers or the owner or both spoke to us or at the very least came and introduced themselves and availed themsleves for any question we might have about their brews at every location. Beer was plenty and did not even consider buying more than what was provided. Recommend to anyone who mildly likes beer and great as a present as I did with the father inlaw. Great Tour

I recently did the High Tea walking tour, which was a gift from my husband and son for Mother's…read moreDay. The tour kicked off at the base of the mall, and we visited Kerri Craig Emporium for some finger sandwiches and scones; Le Bon Choix (Edward St) for some cake and a macaron; and finally finished up at John Mills Himself for a glass of sparkling wine and honeycomb. The tour was well paced, and we had plenty of time at each stop to enjoy a component of High Tea. My tour had only 5 guests, which was a nice small number and meant we got to have some good conversation over each of the stops. Whilst the tour was enjoyable, it's not the best food walking tour I've done (and I've tried various in different countries). Having said that, I'd be keen to try another of their tours - especially in other cities where I'm not so familiar with the different stops.

Ahhh Brisbane. What better way to enjoy this beautiful city in all of its sunshine-y glory than by…read morebicycle? Our thoughts exactly. So we contacted Brisbane Bicycle Tours and booked a 2-hour Brisbane river tour for our group of nine. The payment process was seamless, the communication was excellent, Steve and Fiona were flexible to our tight schedule, and everything was on track for an amazing day... until we checked the weather report. Rain. Lighting. Strong winds. What the heck, Brisbane! Steve gave me a call a few days before our ride and let me know they were willing to be very flexible on time and day based on the weather, but unfortunately our group's schedule was so tight, we only had this small window of riding opportunity. So we both did our respective rain dance and promised to play it by ear the day of. The morning of our tour my phone rang - Steve let me know that while they'd be happy to ride in the rain, he wanted us to have a great time, and riding along the river with the uninvited company of rain and lighting miiiiiiight not be everyone's cup of tea. And just like that, without any dramas at all, he refunded our entire amount. His exact words were: "we say on our website that we're not responsible for cancellations due to bad weather, but honestly, you're not responsible for the weather either!" His kindness and communication throughout the process blew me away. You know a business is doing something right when your expected service is ruined and you still leave having a 5-star experience. Now I'm just itching to come back and go on that ride!
