We only had 1/2 day so we wanted to get a lot of value in a short time as we had arrived from the USA the day before and were boarding a Princess cruise in Brisbane that same afternoon. Bob who we understand is a walking encyclopedia of Brisbane really lived up to that legend as our Tour guide. He showed us all the sights in a 3 hour period of time and ended the tour with a nice relaxing river cruise and morning tea. We found out about the history of the city and also saw things like the botanical gardens etc. and had a great sense of humor and was a pleasant fellow as well. The company that runs the tour JPT really runs a nice operation, we were picked up from a hotel several blocks from the TRYP where we were staying and taken to the central Transportation Terminal on Roma St. We also had some nice fellow passengers with us on the tour. Overall a very memorable visit to Brisbane. After our cruise we stayed in Surfers Paradise and today did another tour with JPT to the Australia Zoo. It continued in the same level of excellence that the Brisbane tour provided.

Bob was a wonderful tour guide and very knowledgeable and helpful. A very good inclusive tour and river cruise. Tea and scones on cruise was tasty. Would have been nice to have return hotel drop offs for those not continuing afternoon tour. If your short on time its a good way to see alot.

This tour was not what is described. It was WAY over priced for what was offered and a waste of money.

Really good introduction to Brisbane. Some of our fellow passengers couldn't keep quiet in the bus which made it difficult to hear

Bob was a really good tour guide! Only comment is the River Cruise the coach needs an upgrade.

It was reasonably good, although I thought the city of Brisbane could have been sold to us better and the tour guide more sensitive to non-english speaking people. It could have been slightly less expensive too.

Nice Sunday morning tour, beautiful weather, fabulous city. Driver very personable and knowledgeable. After stopping at the Breakfast Creek Hotel, I went back that evening for dinner._br/_
River cruise was fine, got some good shots of the city from the water. Overcame my fear of heights on the Eye of Brisbane Ferris Wheel, and walked the South Bank afterwards - great markets and restaurants were booming.

We enjoyed the tour and it gave us an opportunity to see what Brisbane City has to offer, but felt the tour bus driver lacked a bit of local knowledge at times when questions were asked by the visitors. The River Cruise was great and a good commentary was given all the way of places of interest .The ride on the Wheel at the end of the tour was a nice way to finish, and get lovely views over Brisbane.

We would recommend this tour to everyone , especially to first time visitors to Brisbane. After doing this tour it gave us a better understanding of the city and how to navigate around. Our tour guide Bob was excellent from his driving,through to his knowledge of Brisbane and surrounds. Price was very resonable for what was included on our tour._br/_

Nice tour with morning tea!
Review by: DougallGoogle, September 2013
Easily the best city tour I've done in Australia. Lots to see and learn, and all done in good cheer and humour. A great river cruise to finish things off, and the cup of tea and scones went down a treat. Thanks, Bob for an excellent tour!
