I booked this tour so that my wife would have a 'cuddle a koala' experience. We were not told that we had to book! When we joined the queue we were too late. The tour was otherwise quite good but I got the impression that the driver was bored.

For first time Brisbane visitors is recommended.

Our guide was great. The bus tour and riverboat tour were good with lots of good info and sights. The koala sanctuary was good but we were disappointed in not being able to hold a koala. You have to get there early to get a ticket to hold one only so many per dayand they had already given them all out. I would suggest doing that earlier in the day, or the guide get them in advance-at least for the people who have rebooked.

Full day of sightseeing. Cruise was nice. Loved Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary. Tour guide very knowledgeable. Would recommend to everyone.

Our driver/guide was native to Brisbane, although he had lived abroad for many years, and his enthusiasm for Brisbane and the area really came across. The Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary was great with far more than Koalas to see. The opportunity to get up close to wallabies was fantastic. The river cruise was fun with an unexpected cream tea.

A really good way to see the most of Brisbane in a day

Great way to see and experience Brisbane in one day.

The city tour, the tea on the boat and the river cruise was fantastic. The Koala sanctuary was amazing. I would definitely recommend this tour.

The trip was educational and we get to see parts of Brisbane history and monuments. The boat ride was good but where they drop us for lunch was no good, difficult to find food and very very expensive. Would recommend this trip if you like to find out more about Brisbane but no time to go around.

The tour guide Bob was extremely boring and rude. Would not recommend this tour, at least not with this same tour guide, and especially not for kids. The koala sanctuary was the highlight, but the hours leading up to it were very boring.

It did not worth the money. We started from Gold Coast. The drivers from and to GC were nice but the old tour guide who picked us up in Brisbane was quite rude. I found nothing interesting introduced by him. Time allocation he set was too tight and it was in hurry all the time, especially when the tour joined by many old people, even disable one. I felt like we were robots all the time, though we are customers. We came back to GC 30 minutes earlier than schedule and I think there were some small stops were ignored._br/_ However, the cruise without this tour guide was good. You can enjoy the river' scenery and that's great.

It was great to have visited the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary. Gotta take a photo with a Koala.

Booked a couple of days before the tour...received a text asking me to met at the bus terminal 3rd floor at 8:30..I arrived at 8:15. At 9:00 I asked whether I had missed the bus...calls for other tours were made but nothing about the Brisbane city tour. I was told people still checking in...we finally got on the bus at 9:20. No explanation as to why we were 50 minutes late leaving...I believe it was because of a late group checking in but 50 minutes..wasnt a great start. Guide was informative. I sat near the front of the mid size bus and could hear him speaking. He had a microphone on but it was terrible quality very crackly. People further down the bus began to speak amongst themselves..guide did ask for quiet however I think the poor quality microphone hindered their experience. The day was good. Enjoyed a river cruise and 2 hours at the Lone Pine Koala Park. I wonder though what did we miss being 50 minutes late leaving....

I enjoyed the different segments of the tour. First, a very interesting city tour by bus. The tour leader had wonderful stories to share. Then the delightful cruise, along with delicious tea and scones. Fun to explore South Bank I especially was impressed by the beautiful Nepalese temple. Best of all was the visit to Lone Pine Sanctuary. We got there in time to see the feeding of the koalas and Tasmanian Devils. Getting up close to the kangaroos and wallabies was thrilling.

Tour was informative and interesting, especially the visit to Lone Pine Santuary was really fun! However, would be better if we were allowed more time to take photos at some scenic places like the Breakfast Creek Hotel and Mt Coot-tha Summit.
