Interesting guide I had a great time on this tour. Matt was a great guide with interesting information about the city. The walk was not onerous and I really felt like I got the highlights of the city. We had a group of 4 all traveling separately and Matt did a great job of answering our various questions. If you want to spend a few hours learning about Brisbane, this is a great way to do it.

The Best of Brisbane Walking Tour is the perfect way to get an introduction to Brisbane, and map out the rest of your adventure. From botanical garden bats to vertigo inducing views, there is something for everyone on this tour. Delightful critters (both real and artistically reimagined) are around almost every corner, there are some truly magnificent architectural gems, and plenty of entertaining local trivia (guess who REALLY holds the keys to the city). Matt was entertaining, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable about his city. An excellent way to spend the afternoon.

Knowledgeable &interesting Our guide sassi was fun &interesting the 3 hour walk was easy to do she took us to all the places of interest the bonner Neville bridge & the story has stayed with me ❤️ the experience very friendly people 😍

The Introduction to Brisbane walking tour was a fantastic overview of Brisbane and its history, brought to life by our guide Guy. Highly recommended to visitors and locals alike.

Urban City Tours! Great tour to visit the city of Brisbane! I thoroughly enjoyed the trip. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable on the city and helped answer any questions we had along the way. I would recommend anyone visit Brisbane to see a good portion of the city within a short time span.

Urban Tours Bus Experience As a solo traveller I couldn’t have been happier when Cheryl greeted me with a big smile and handshake. We had a group of 7 from all over the world. The highlight for me was The Botanic Gardens where Cheryl had so much information. Also, we were never rushed which was a blessing for a 76 yr old !!

Great Tour The tour was fantastic! Especially if you only have a few days in Brisbane and want to see a lot. Felt like I got to see all the highlights and timing was great. Matt is super knowledgeable!

I recommend using Urban Tours Brisbane. Cheryl was welcoming from the start with her happy presence. Having laughs and good conversations throughout the tour. Go for it and book a tour....its a great experience. David from Tassie.

A great tour to remember forever I soooo enjoyed the tour. Cheryl was very welcoming from the start, informative, happy and chatty. She connected with everyone with conversations and generally had interested where you come from and stories. A really nice person. I highly recommend this tour. Go for it and book a tour. David from Tassie

What a great way to spend your day when visiting Brisbane. I recently completed the Brisbane walking tour with my tour guide Matt. I have to say it was very enjoyable, and I learned a lot about the city of Brisbane. Matt was attentive and answered all my questions. There was so much I didn’t know about the history of the city. Matt provided the history as well as the current details. We Took a walk through the botanical gardens which you’re absolutely beautiful. I highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Brisbane for the first time.

Great trip, good value for money. We had a wonderful time. Our guide, Cheryl was friendly, informative and a very good driver in Brisbane’s traffic. The places visited were great, especially Mt Coot-tha botanical gardens. Thank you.

Great experience I did this tour with my elderly mother, this is an excellent way to see the city in a few hours without much walking. Guy was very nice, helpful and knowledgeable.

Amazing I joined a city tour of Brisbane with my mom, and it was such an amazing experience! We were able to visit all the famous spots in Brisbane in a short time, which was perfect for us since we didn’t have much time to explore on our own. Joining the tour and going around by car was definitely a great idea.

Our tour guide, Gau (sorry if I got the name wrong!), was fantastic. He gave us lots of information about Brisbane, helped us take plenty of photos, and even recommended places to visit after the tour.

My mom and I were really satisfied and had a wonderful time in Brisbane. I truly appreciate the experience and strongly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the city!

Guy and his team facilitated an Amazing Race style activity for our leadership conference and did not disappoint! Staff felt connected and were able to build new relationships and strengthen existing ones. It was fun, fast paced and the highlight of our conference! The team were friendly, personable and professional. I highly recommend Urban Tours!

Enlightening City Tour Really informative tour and great to learn more about the city and its history. Was good to find out more about the places we'd already been walking past oblivious of their stories. Highly recommend this tour.

Amazing Race through Brisbane City so much fun! Highly recommend!! 5+ Stars!!!

I did the cycling tour as part of our work offsite. Guy was informative and taught us some interesting facts about Brisbane city. Definitely recommend doing this trip at least once to get a new perspective on Brisbane.

We did a four hour tour of Brisbane hi lights and other less know hi lights on a beautiful 25 degree Brisbane day.
Guy our driver and leader was knowledgeable, friendly and respectful of his clients needs. WOW the lamington we had at Mt Coot-tha lookout cafe was the best and freshest that I have ever had. That is from an Australia who has had many. I would very much recommend this tour of Brisbane and its best sites.

Matt was a great guide. The tour was informative and fun. Matt was full of knowledge and it was a great tour of Brisbane.

Cheryl was a fantastic guide! She was informative, entertaining, and so friendly throughout our walking tour of Brisbane. We learned so much and had a great time — highly recommend!
Just needs to demo her Irish jig!! 😂

Really enjoyed my tour of Brisbane on 14th August, 2025. Cheryl was very friendly and informative. From the architecture to great recommendations where to eat, the tour was jam-packed with interesting snippets. Great Lammingtons too!

The half day tour was great. Guy was helpful and has a lot of tidbits about Brisbane. There is enough time to visit each location without feeling rushed. The short walk inside the botanical garden was fun.

Urban Tools in Brisbane took us on a fantastic full-day wine tour in the Stanthorpe wine region. The team was incredibly informative, sharing great insights along the way, and the bus had everything we could possibly need on board. Comfortable, well-organised, and full of great stops — it was the perfect way to explore Stanthorpe’s wineries. Highly recommend!

We had an amazing time with Urban Tours exploring wine country, just outside of Brisbane. The tour was customised with great stops, behind the scenes visits at some of the wineries with plenty of tastings along the way! Guy & Cheryl kept the day fun, shared lots of fascinating commentary about the region, and we had a great experience all round. I would totally recommend it as a great way to experience the Granite Belt.

The team at Urban Tours put together an incredible custom Granite Belt itinerary for a small group of us who wanted a hassle free weekend away to Stanthorpe together. The stops were thoughtfully timed and planned, without feeling like we were running to a schedule. It was very authentic and genuine. The commentary was insightful but not overbearing and carefully tailored to our group, which was a nice touch. We visited top notch venues and were welcomed liked family. I’d definitely recommend Urban Tours to my family and friends!

Matt is a wonderful tour guide around Brisbane. Highly recommend

Yesterday I did the Urban Walking Tour ‘Introduction to Brisbane Walking Tour’ which was exceptional. Matt, our guide was very knowledgeable & had a lovely manner about him. It was clear Matt loves his chosen city Brisbane & it showed in his guiding style. I’ve lived in/near Brisbane on/off over the years & visit often & I’m so pleased I took the time to learn & explore more of Brisbane. There is alot of history and hidden gems to uncover. Its lovely seeing the city come of age from my first visit in 1989. Well done Urban Tours, I’ll look to do more tours with you in the future.
Regards: Melissa

I am so glad I did the walking tour of Brisbane with Urban Tours. I’ve never been to Brisbane and had half a day free and this was hands down the best way to see the city and learn a little bit about it along the way. Cheryl was so friendly, answered everyone’s questions and had a great knowledge of the city. I am so pleased I chose to do this tour instead of wander around the city on my own because we saw so much that I would never have uncovered on my own and learned the stories behind a lot of buildings and features as well. Absolutely five stars from me!

Matt was very informative and knowledgeable about Brisbane. We were very relaxed and enjoyed every story. We enjoyed the walk and the stairs climbing. It was a good pace and with lots of opportunities to ask questions. We loved one of the stories and the treats, won’t spoil it for other walkers. You just need to book the tour! Matt and Fran
P.s We enjoyed meeting the other tourists in our group, it’s a great way to meet people.

I took the 100 minute Introduction to Brisbane tour with Guy, and it was excellent! Such a leisurely pace with a small group, making it easy to take in all the key locations. Guy answered any questions we had too. Absolutely recommend this for anyone visiting Brisbane!

I did a Brisbane City tour with Matt 2 days ago and got to know the city so much better than before that 3 hours. Matt is very knowledgeable & passionate about Brisbane, history & the events that led up to today. He was also funny and full of interesting titbits of information. The tour was well structured, we did a fair amount of walking and Matt shared separate conversations with each of us on the tour. He also shared cost saving tips and left us at one of the best places to watch sunset over the river, and enjoy a nice meal -Howard Smith Wharf. I then took a $0.50 10 stop ride on the ferry which was stunning at 10pm. I thoroughly recommend this tour.

Great guide and tour!!! We did a 3 hour walking tour of Brisbane Australia. Matt was our guide and he was fantastic. Great personality and very knowledgeable. He gave tons of information about Brisbane and Australia. I highly recommend Mat and the tour!!!

Definitely do this when you first arrive in Brisbane! Great historical detail with an excellent and friendly guide, Cheryl!
So many hidden secrets.
brings this city alive!

Great tour! Excellent tour! We enjoyed all the history and facts about Australia and Brisbane that Matt shared with us. We booked the tour on the first afternoon of arriving to keep us moving through the jet lag and Will worked perfectly.

Nice Brisbane walk I had a private tour with Cheryl. She was very nice, explained A lot about the city tour but even more. It was a nice,relaxed, friendly and informative tour.

I had the pleasure of joining a three-hour walking tour with Matt from Urban Tours, and it was an absolute delight! Despite staying near Central Station, I was amazed at how much I didn’t know about the area, including the fascinating way the trees are planted in ANZAC Square. Matt’s knowledge was incredibly detailed, and his storytelling made history come alive.

What truly set Matt apart was his engaging and entertaining style. He even had some surprises up his sleeve toward the end, which added a fun twist to the experience. Coincidentally, I had crossed paths with him the day before when I asked for directions on the ferry, it was a wonderful surprise to see him as my guide the next day!

Whether you’re a local or a visitor, I highly recommend booking a tour with Matt. His expertise, personable nature, and knack for making every detail interesting made this one of the most enjoyable walking tours I’ve ever been on.

A multi-faceted introduction to Brisbane. Matt was an excellent guide. He provided information on a tremendous range of topics from geology to architecture to history to botany. We covered a lot of ground and felt we really learned much about various aspects of Brisbane. it was a fantastic three plus hours.

Perfect! I strongly recommend to start your journey in Brisbane with this tour. Our guide has been very empathic and nice. Brava!

Brisbane city tour. The guides were very informative and I learnt a lot about the history of Brisbane. I was privileged to have two guides and I was impressed with the local knowledge. The 3 hrs went very quickly and we even found the smallest door in Brisbane.

We really enjoyed our walk around Brisbane. Viewing historical sites and learning the stories behind them. Guy our guide, was very pleasant and knowledgeable. It was a delight to go down little lanes that we never knew existed.

Fun and informative city tour This was an enjoyable tour with plenty of history and hidden gems,Guy the tour guide was great and friendly , I would definately consider this whether your single or in a group ,you will enjoy this

GUY WATSON URBAN TOURS BRISBANE WALKING TOUR I booked this 3 hour walking tour of Brisbane through trip advisor in advance of my visit to Brisbane for myself and my daughter .
the ratings were high on trip advisor and this tour came as a trip advisor recommendation .
Guy Watson runs urban tours who facilitate the tour .
Guy sent up to date information about the meeting point before the tour .
Guy arrived early and ensured we all had sun cream and provided his own if people didn't have any protection.
Guy was very pleasant and welcoming .
there were people of different nationalities on the tour and he was very inclusive to everyone .
the tour itself was brilliant .
3 hours seems along time but it went very quickly ,at the 2 hour point guy produced a special local treat of lamington cake for all his walking guests ,with an explanation on how it came about in the process .
the tour itself covered the whole of Brisbane central and was full of all sorts of information that you can only get from a walking tour like this , fun facts , historical facts and details you would never get just wandering around on your own .
I would absolutely recommend GUY WATSON OF URBAN TOURS .

We went on a Brisbane walking tour with Guy from Urban Tours for a leadership team activity while our remote team was in town for a company onsite. We had a mix of locals and people from overseas, we all learnt so many new facts about our city! Highly recommend Guy and the team!

Really great experience. I've lived in Brisbane for 18 years and still learnt so much. Fun stories and well planned. Highly recommended for a work team activity.

I came on a visit from the US and learned a ton about Brisbane. Guy is super friendly and incredibly knowledgeable and was a great guide for our group!

Highly recommend this walking tour. Guy, our guide was fantastic. "Note only very knowledgeable, but also made it fun and interesting covering off the history and future planning. The 3 hours went so quick. Thankyou for a great morning.

Guy was a fabulous tour guide. So knowledgable and friendly and we had a lot of fun. Highly recommend his tours!

Great experience Great tour loved it
Guy tour operator was awesome knew his stuff and I learnt a lot about Brisbane I didn’t know before thank you Guy

What a Guy! :) We were not sure what to expect as it was our first walking tour and also because we had already walked the streets of the city for a couple of days by the time of our walking tour. However, this tour turned out to be the highlight of our entire stay in Brisbane because not only Guy was very knowledgeable and compassionate, but also very kind and attentive to our interests. His timing was superb as he dished out trivia one after another which had us hooked to him from start to finish and he kept us glued to him with what was coming next. He even got us little Lamington cakes to eat and also little souvenir for each of us which makes it a hard one to beat. We did another walking tour in another city after this tour but I think Guy has left the bar pretty high. Thank you Guy for the amazing experience!

Guy was a very friendly and knowledgeable guide for our tour of Brisbane. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and would highly recommend him.

Heaps of fun! We had a blast doing the spy game! It gave our interstate colleagues a chance to walk around the city and to compete against each other in a fun way. The clues were clever and everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. I would definitely recommend Brisbane Street Games.

Go for it! Fantastic tour. Three very interesting hours in Brisbane city. We really appreciated the surprise at the end of the walk.

The walking tour was great! The tour guide Guy was very engaging, recommended a few food stops and even had a treat for each one of us. I would recommend this tour as an into to your Brisbane trip.

On my first visit to Brisbane, I had a most interesting and informative walking tour with Guy. I learned a lot and saw a lot in three hours. Guy was so knowledgeable about the city. He showed us a lot of things we would have never seen on our own. Also told us a lot of interesting facts about the city and what we were seeing.

Great place to visit, lot of stories to learn as you walk through the streets and allyways leisurely.

Learned a lot about Brisbane on this tour. Guy our guide was super friendly! I would recommend!
