We really enjoyed our small-group walking tour of Brisbane with Saskia! She told us a lot about the history of the city, and showed us a number of interesting locations. This is a great way to start off a trip to Brisbane! Now we can revisit some of our favorite stops over the next several days. We would highly recommend Saskia, this tour and the company!

    A great introduction to Brisbane!

    Martin_D, Apr 2026
    We enjoyed our tour with Ryan. He met us on time in the designated place, and the tour was great. Got to see more than we expected and appreciated that even though we were the only people who signed up for this tour that it still went ahead so we got a private tour experience. Lots of hidden street art in Brisbane we would have easily missed without having it pointed out. Great history lesson of the city was included too. Ryan did a great job!

    The tour starts at a good time in an easy to find central location. Our guide, Tom, was really welcoming and knowledgeable. He was considerate to wait for a couple who were delayed by public transportation issues. The tour takes you to some great places of interest and other opportunities are pointed out along the way. Detailed local knowledge and an engaging nature, our guide made the experience worth every penny.

    Tom is great 🙌

    As a solo traveler always appreciate a good walking tour as a way to get a feel for a city and to connect with other travelers. This tour was a great introduction to Brisbane and the tour guide added a lot of anecdotal history I would not have learned without the tour.

    A very informative and enjoyable tour

    Gabby_J, Jan 2026
    My husband and I went on a 3hr walking tour around Brisbane City. Our tour guide was Nicole. We saw so many places we would not have seen ourselves, which was great. We did not have to rush to each place. A good walking pace. Nicole gave us so much information on the places and could answer our questions. She was professional and friendly. Well worth paying for.

    Wonderful and entertaining guide

    This was an excellent tour and introduction to Brisbane. We had a better (and much more favourable) impression of Brisbane after this tour with a good level of history and culture included - just what we were looking for. Tom our guide had a depth of knowledge and clear affection for the city which we found infectious. Highly recommended.

Our tour guide Tom was fantastic and I would highly recommend the tour as a great way to start your stay in Brisbane.

    Well worth the steps!

    What a great way to learn about the city! You get to understand the cities history and how it affected the present. Our tour guide, Saskia, helped orientate us to the city and gave great advice on what else to explore and do. Saskia skill brought the group together which brought great questions and discussions. It was a great time.

    Beautiful Brisbane

    jackie_j, Oct 2025
    The walking tour of the City highlights just how much history, culture, food, architecture, shopping, art and so much more that Brisbane has to offer. Our tour guide Saskia was a wealth of knowledge, passionate and joyful and really made the experience one not to miss. Highly recommend found lots of hidden gems that would have otherwise gone unnoticed.
