Starting in King George Square, your guide will introduce you to the stories and characters that helped shape Brisbane from a penal colony to the Queensland capital. You'll visit the historic Windmill Tower, the city’s oldest structure, and explore the CBD’s hidden laneways and public art, uncovering murals, sculptures, and quirky design that reveal Brisbane’s creative side. Midway, we’ll pause for a treat at one of Brisbane’s top local donut shops, where you’ll enjoy a fresh, handcrafted donut and locally brewed coffee or tea. Fuelled by sugar and stories, the tour continues through heritage streets and modern city spaces, connecting Brisbane’s past and present.
