About Brisbane
The cool and casual capital of Queensland offers all the glitz and glam of a big city without the big city airs. Located on the banks of the Brisbane River and surrounded by rolling hills, this urban oasis sure is easy on the eyes. Whether you're headed uptown, downtown or out of town, you'll be sure to encounter your fair share of first-ever experiences. Scale the legendary Story Bridge, take a sandboarding tour on North Stradbroke Island. Or if you'd like to connect with your inner Aussie, try your hand at sheep shearing at the Australian Woolshed.
Brisbane Attractions
If finding furry Australian natives is on your to-do list, take a tour of the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary - it's the largest in the world. Here you can spend some quality time with the resident kangaroos and even cuddle a koala.
Brisbane Activities
Outdoor enthusiast? You can test yourself in Brisbane without leaving the city… Hold your breath as you abseil 20 meters down the 20 million year old kangaroo Point cliffs in only 20 seconds or rock climb your way to the Top with the meandering Brisbane River at your back! Want to be closer to the water? Then kayak your way around every bend of the river; no matter what the weather! Get a bird’s eye view of how the river shapes our city when you do the Story Bridge Adventure Climb. When you get to the top of Brisbane’s most famous 1940’s icon, catch your breath and look around for a glimpse of the beautiful Moreton Bay. How about cycling or rollerblading along the Riverwalk – over 20 km of riverside paths and bikeways?
