Beskrivning

Discover the history of Brisbane, its people and the river on a guided walking tour. From the arrival of convicts, early struggles & natural disasters, to urban growth & emergence on the world stage.
Start your tour on the river at Kurilpa, South Brisbane, in front of the beautiful Gallery of Modern Art, where you will hear about the serendipitous arrival of Europeans and the city's humble beginnings. Then wander through the Cultural Centre and into South Bank before crossing the Neville Bonner bridge to the city, where tough convict beginnings make way for prosperity and change.

As you pass some of Brisbane’s most iconic buildings, we delve into the river's ebbs, flows, and floods. Walk through the Botanic Gardens, skirting the river, to hear about some of the gardens colourful inhabitants and life along the river's edge.

As we take in the sites and views, we explore the ways in which engineering has drastically altered the river's shape as much as the river's turbulent nature has impacted our character.

End your tour with breath-taking views from the Kangaroo Point bridge, looking out towards the cliffs and the iconic depression-era Story Bridge.
