    Bruce was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable about the places we visited as well as keeping us fully informed about things like meeting points and toilet stops. On the drive between the stops he told us lots of interesting facts about the region. All of the places we visited were great.

  • 4Hastily Rushing in Sunshine Coast and Noosa 🥲

    We're glad to have a safe driver and a local guide during this trip. The attractions of the trip are all excellent, but we found the pace in those attractions are all relaxing. We're the only group that need to "hurry up" in the all four attractions. Maybe it would be better to planned the same itinerary as a two day trip. And please play some music or radio, or allow light and dry snacks (like candy, oat bar, nuts) in the car. Or the way of 150 kilometers ×2 would be boring, everyone could do was sleeping.

  • 3Noosa Heads tour from Brisbane

    Value of the tour was minimal, essentially just transportation to Noosa, and nothing else was included. And then we were very rushed at Noosa Heads which was supposed to be the main destination. An extra hour would be way better, with less time at Monteville (55mins was overboard) or starting earlier. Our guide Bruce was informative and had lots of interesting facts along the way, which was good. But he was strict on food/drinks in the bus, so for a 2.5hr ride starting at 730am that was annoying (no coffee/snacks allowed). Your better off just getting a greyhound directly to Noosaheads so you have a full day there to explore.

About Brisbane

Brisbane is Queensland's riverside capital, a sunny subtropical city of parklands, galleries, a koala sanctuary and ferries on a looping river.

Brisbane winds along the bends of its river, with the centre on a peninsula and suburbs climbing the hills on either side. It began as a convict settlement in the 1820s, and the Old Windmill on Wickham Terrace and the Commissariat Store survive from that time. Today sandstone, glass towers and leafy streets stand together, and the Story Bridge, finished in 1940, spans the river beside the city.

Top-ranked sights in Brisbane: Brisbane River, Story Bridge, Kangaroo Point Cliffs Park.
