In a nutshell
Nice city with beautiful surrounds
56 Reviews The lagoon on southbank was my favourite thing about Brisbane, I love the idea that they built a beach to make up for the fact that they don't really have a natural one! Although it gets pretty crowded up there on sunny days and at weekends, you still shouldn't really have too many probs finding a...
23 Reviews A partly open range zoo at Fig Tree Pocket next to the river. It describes itself as a sanctuary for koalas. I am sorry but my idea of a sanctuary is acres of bushland where the animals can live untouched and free from human intervention. The main idea of this place seems to be getting the koalas...

7 Reviews Located under Palace Central Backpackers, this is the sort of place I usually do my best to avoid! In fact, the only reason I even bothered to venture in there was 'cause I was skint and had free drinks vouchers! It's very loud, very crowded, very sweaty and overun with backpackers trying to get...

7 Reviews Located around Brisbane are the suburbs, of which many have huge Shopping Centres. These centres have everything, if more than what you find in Brisbane itself. This keeps a lot of traffic out of Brisbane, which is good, plus, all the parking at these shopping centres is FREE much better than...
21 Reviews Have you heard of the Spider drink? I thought it was common world wide, but evidently not, it is unique to Australia and New Zealand. In other parts of the World it is known as an "Ice-cream soda" or "Float" VT'er friend [maysue] tried a Strawberry one. This consisted of a scoop of ice-cream with...
3 Reviews Aussie slang is not what usually the word was oriiginally meant for example : someone tells you your gay it does not mean your sexual preference , it means your being stupid. Yes I know new one on me too, usually this saying is by the teenages . Australians are not all hyper sensitive about the...

50 Reviews A great way to see native fauna and flora in Brisbane. There are quite a few bushes around Brisbane with worn tracks that are quite easy to navigate around. The level needed ranges from easy strols to hikes. At most of the entrances to these should be a map so you know what way you want to go. very...
3 Reviews "COOCHIE" is what the Island is commonly known as, is located 1km off the coast at Victoria Point. The Island is a small 5ks, so you can walk the whole Island quite easily, this I have done once. No need to hurry! On the way, I saw the red clay banks, probably these are what the Island was named...
