Brisbane - Fantastic Queensland holidays!
Brisbane is Queensland’s contemporary urban capital and Australia’s fastest growing city.
Enjoying an excellent positioning along the eastern seaboard, Brisbane is widely recognised as
a major city on the Pacific Rim.
Savvy and youthful, with a slightly irreverent, "can do" personality,
Brisbane’s downtown heartland offers a tantalising blend of dining, shopping, nightlife and culture. Refuel
on five continents of culinary choice, from trendy sidewalk cafes and authentic noodle bars to hip restaurants
and up-market establishments.
Shopping is a seven-day-a-week adventure in Australia’s busiest open air retail mecca,
Brisbane’s Queen Street Mall, with over 1,000 shops and eateries to explore. For the ultimate in edgy urban style,
hit Fortitude Valley, downtown’s creative hub. Hip fashion boutiques, groovy galleries and slick restaurants blend
with Chinese herbalists, gourmet grocers and funky outdoor markets for a kaleidoscopic cultural encounter.
Brisbane’s warm climate and endless sunny days deliver an outdoor lifestyle like no other. Bike paths and riverside
walkways make walking, cycling and rollerblading around downtown a scenic delight. Alive with lush parks, tropical
gardens and with its own inner city beach, downtown Brisbane offers the perfect refuge for locals and visitors alike.
After dark, catch an international performance, have a flutter at the Conrad Treasury Casino, cruise the river, or get
seriously cool at downtown’s funky mix of nightclubs and live music venues. Brisbane’s surrounding regions boast a feast
of spectacular experiences.
Refresh in World Heritage listed rainforest, laze on sun-drenched beaches, explore the
untouched charm of country towns, head south to the Gold Coast or north to the
Sunshine Coast (home to the Crocodile Hunter), cuddle koalas or hand feed dolphins in the wild … all within an hour’s
reach of downtown.
