    EXPLORING BRISBANE 


    Today we enjoy a sightseeing tour around Brisbane. With a sub-tropical climate, gardens and parks and an ever-changing contemporary skyline, Brisbane is a great place to escape. Late morning, we arrive at the Cultural Centre Pontoon to join River City Cruises for a morning tea cruise on the Brisbane River. Sit back and relax as our captain will give an informative commentary while we cruise past Brisbane’s most iconic sights including the Kangaroo Point Cliffs, City Centre and the Story Bridge. Lunch today is at the famous Breakfast Creek Hotel.  With a history that stretches back to 1889 the hotel was one of the first hotels to offer beer garden style dining and the first to open a drive through bottle shop in the 1960s. To finish our day of local sightseeing in Brisbane we head to the best views of Brisbane from the Mount Cootha Lookout. We now return to our hotel where we have time to freshen up before dinner.
