Brisbane

The cosmopolitan capital of the sunshine state of Queensland, Brisbane offers a number of attractive cultural, dining and retail options for visitors as well as acting as a gateway to the charms of the wider region. The South Bank district offers gardens, a lagoon and arts facilities which showcase the abundant creative talents of the area, whilst a trip down the Brisbane River on a ferry or paddle steamer can offer a glimpse of the numerous attractions of this under-rated city. Active visitors can abseil down the Kangaroo Point cliffs, whilst cyclists will enjoy roaming around the bike lanes of the city, stopping off at the gorgeous City Botanic Gardens. With easy access to the nearby resorts including Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Moreton Island and Noosa, Brisbane is an excellent launch pad for your holiday to Queensland.
