Gold Coast City Sights Tour from Brisbane

Best known for its expanses of spectacular golden beaches, the Gold Coast of Queensland is a remarkably diverse destination with something for everyone. Your full-day tour begins with pickup in a comfortable, air-conditioned coach from Surfers Paradise in the late morning, or earlier morning pickup in Brisbane. Soak up passing sights as your driver-guide shares informative commentary, and stop for an hour at Pacific Fair Shopping Centre to browse through the stores or grab morning tea (own expense).

Climb aboard a riverboat for a 2-hour crab trip along the Broadwater Canal that snakes through the Gold Coast wetlands. Glide past luxurious waterfront homes, 5-star hotels like the Palazzo Versace and the high-end retail complex of Marina Mirage. Learn how to catch a crab and enjoy your delicious seafood lunch in the tranquil waters. 

Back in the coach in the afternoon, admire the high-rise condos and wave breaks that frame Surfers Paradise as we make our way to visit Burleigh Heads. Here, enjoy a fantastic perspective on miles of long sandy beaches that stretch as far as the eye can see. 

We continue our day with a drive through the Gold Coast Region passing Varsity Lake, Robina and Advance Town as we admire the Gold Coast Hinterland. 

After soaking up the peaceful atmosphere of southern Queensland, relax on the drive north, where your tour concludes with drop-off back at your original departure point.
