SHORE TOUR - Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary and Brisbane HighlightsTour

Experience the beauty and history of Brisbane on a scenic tour through the city and up to the heights of Mt Coo-tha, a name inspired by the stingless honeybees native to the area, meaning honey mountain in the Aboriginal language. The highlight of this journey is a visit to the world-famous Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary, the first and largest koala sanctuary in the world. Here, you can explore at your own pace, getting up close to over one hundred and thirty koalas, as well as emus, wombats, and even the endangered Tasmanian Devil. The sanctuary offers a rare opportunity to connect with Australia’s unique wildlife while enjoying the peaceful natural surroundings. Following this, a delicious cafe-style lunch awaits at the botanical garden cafe, where you can enjoy fresh food accompanied by incredible views of the gardens. Afterward, take time to wander through the gardens, visit the planetarium, and soak in the calm and beauty of this remarkable green space.

Discover more of Brisbane’s iconic sights as the tour continues to Southbank Parklands, a famous area for recreation and leisure. Capture a photo with the well-known Brisbane Sign and stroll under the vibrant bougainvillea arches, enjoying the lively atmosphere and beautiful landscaping. Next, we visit the Kangaroo Point Cliffs, where you may witness daring rock climbers or brave abseilers navigating the volcanic rock formations created by convicts in the early days of the colony. The day concludes with stunning views of the Story Bridge from Captain Burke Park, offering a perfect photo opportunity of one of Brisbane’s most iconic landmarks. This tour combines nature, wildlife, history, and city highlights into one immersive experience, allowing you to fully appreciate the diversity and charm of Brisbane in a single memorable day.
