This walking tour covers Brisbane’s main sights in a small group led by an English-speaking guide. The tour lasts about three hours and starts at Queen Street Mall, where you’ll visit places like Regent Theatre and Brisbane Arcade. Along Burnett Lane, the guide points out street art and popular small bars. You will pass Brisbane City Hall and learn about its history without entering the building. The route continues through Heritage Lanes, where you see Aboriginal artwork by Megan Cope and learn about the former fruit and vegetable market. You will view South Bank Parklands across the Brisbane River without crossing it, then visit the Queen Victoria Monument. In Miller Park, the guide explains Brisbane’s colonisation and how the city’s location was chosen. At Neville Bonner Bridge, you hear about the first Aboriginal federal politician and nearby riverfront developments. The tour includes shortcuts through laneways like Elizabeth Arcade, used mainly by locals. You will visit the site of the former Regent Theatre, now a Visitor Information Centre, and walk through Brisbane Arcade to learn about its history. Anzac Square and its gardens are next, followed by the General Post Office, a building that has served as a jail, convict barracks, settlers’ housing, and a post office. The tour ends near the Howard Smith Wharves with a view of the river and finishes at a riverside bar with views of the Story Bridge and Kangaroo Point. A small alcoholic drink is included at the bar. The tour covers about 3.5 kilometers at a relaxed pace suitable for those who can comfortably walk that distance. Group photos, a map with recommendations, and snacks are included, but gratuities are not. The tour offers a detailed look at Brisbane’s history, society, and First Nations people from multiple perspectives.
