Excellent tour. Highly recommend Lee-Ann's tour. She was so knowledgeable about so many aspects of Brisbane; its history, geography, architecture and art. She guided us through local parts that we'd never have found and gave us a real local insight. Lee-Ann and my husband (a Kiwi) had great conversations about political figures from Brisbane's past. Husband and I are both teachers and love history and geography and this tour was perfect for us. (We did tour in July 2017 but pregnancy/baby/toddler happened soon after!!).

Amazing experience smooth sailing all the way, thoroughly enjoyed all the activities. Neville, the driver to and from the port, was a lovely gentleman and fun to talk to, bones, the driver on moreton island and the man responsible for the sandboarding activity, was hilarious, josh and Jake, the boys in the water who led the snorkel tour and kayaking, were easygoing but also extremely watchful and vigilant, and did a great job making sure everyone was safe at all times. Great value for money, would recommend to everyone/anyone.

Great experience with lots of naturally beautiful scenery. Although it rained it didn’t really interfere with the experience and the tour guide has back up plans. Lots of learnings taught by the guide the entire trip. Plenty of amenities along the way. Highly recommend.
