Along the way you'll encounter some of South Bank’s more whimsical touches, like the upside-down elephant sculpture.

Brisbane River Cruise with entry to Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary

Thomas_W, Oct 2026

Great people, Great City,

Get there early to find sheltered seats if rainy weather is forecast. We had a wonderful visit to the Koala Preserve and a nice voyage on the river with interesting commentary. At 80, the steps up from the river are a challenge but even mobility challenged made it. I would not recommend that wheelchair bound persons attempt this. My phone battery died and the Miri Mar II captain helped us call a taxi to get back to our hotel. Queenslanders are fantastic hosts/guides and naturally friendly. They have every right to be proud of their city, Brisbane.

Stradbroke Island Eco Day Trip from Brisbane – Wildlife & Beaches

Jo_D, Oct 2026

North Stradbroke Island WILDLIFE Adventure Tour from Brisbane

Cindy_F, Oct 2026

Great day at stradbroke island!

Took the ferry over to stradbroke island (about a half hour ride). The guide took the 12 of us in a spacious van. He provided water all day. We took an hour walk to see the spectacular views of the beach and water. We saw wild kangaroos and Joey’s on the walk. Even saw whales playing in the water, green turtles and dolphins playing near the beach. We stopped for an hour or more by the beach to get lunch if we wanted. Went to a hotel near the beach to spend time at the beach or a beer or lunch from the lovely hotel overlooking the ocean. He then drove to a neighborhood and walked around looking for koalas in the trees and found several of them. Very fun to spot them. Finished the day by going to an area where the kangaroos come out to feed in late afternoon. Saw several females, juvenile males and joeys. It was such a nice tour. Our tour guide Aaron was knowledgeable and friendly. Great opportunity to see animals in their own habitat.

Brisbane Whale Watching Cruise from Redcliffe or Brisbane City

Adam_S, Oct 2026

An amazing experience

We had an amazing experience. The operation was very professional and the staff all worked seamlessly together to ensure we were kept safe and well looked after at all times. Stacy in the VIP lounge was great and well worth the upgrade. Throughout the tour, the whole crew were on lookout for whales, dolphins & turtles and we had a number of sightings and so were thrilled to have been able to capture some amazing images to remember our day. Although an expensive trip, I would highly recommend this experience to anyone who is particularly interested.

Kristi_W, Oct 2026

It was amazing to see Australia’s wildlife plus its beautiful nature.

James did a great job of getting us safely to each site and telling us a lot about Brisbane and the area, very friendly guy, but he went above and beyond by looking for wildlife for us at each stop plus while driving on the road. We saw wild kangaroos, wallabies, and even a koala and her joey! It was amazing!

Moreton Island & Tangalooma Wrecks Snorkel Cruise - Brisbane

Melissa_S, Sep 2026

Must do day trip!

This was a wonderful day trip that we did. Only a 20 minute ride to get to the marina from Brisbane CBD. It was a spontaneous thing we wanted to do and this company was the only one available that I could find to book the day of (literally 2 hours before departure) - thanks for that! Shoutout to the captain and all the crew that was there on Sept 20th. It was a beautiful day so the ride there and back was very smooth. Everything was so well organized from the safety checks, getting grouped up, getting the gear we needed, and getting us to the island. Everyone was super friendly and helpful and the food buffet was good! The guided snorkel around the wrecks was fun - we were able to spot a shark and turtle along with so many fish and the visibility was good. We were able to spot starfish when we had our time on the beach. On the way back we were also able to see a dugong and dolphins! It was overall a great experience and I highly recommend doing this trip with this company. Thanks again!

Brisbane: Story Bridge Adventure Climb

Jillian_S, Jun 2026

Much easier than you think.

Best guide ever! Ethan (?) was great and very enjoyable to listen to. He kept a good eye on the group, gave lots of fun facts, and was very personable. The team double-checked our gear before we headed out providing me with extra safety assurance. I’d do it again…. And yes, heights do make me nervous.

Beautiful trip alone the Brisbane River.

Great cruise, absolutely beautiful. The captain stopped and turned the boat at several points to give everyone a great view. The crew was super friendly and the cheese plate was more than generous. Great value for the money!!! And yes, I would go again.

Diana_E, Feb 2026

That the historical commentary was very informative and interesting. The weather can mean it can be very windy on the river. I would have liked more detailed information on how to find the Pontoon. I did not see any public signage and had to ask for directions, which were not accurate. I nearly missed the cruise.
