Great walking tour around Brisbane - Loved this tour of Brisbane city. Celine was an excellent guide and very knowledgeable about Brisbane. It was easy pace walking and bonus stop of coffee and donuts was a good way to relax as well. I was the only person on the tour so it was nice to get a personal guide. Can thoroughly recommend.

Brisbane in a Nutshell! - We had just arrived into Brisbane and jumped on this tour with Caelyn. Absolutely brilliant! Very informative, fascinating historical stories all polished off with great humour! Can’foeget the donuts either - simply delicious and perfectly timed throughout the tour!

An absolutely brilliant experience (great for corporate teams!) - I booked this experience for my team to get a flavour for what Brisbane's CBD has to offer and learn a bit more about its past. I was absolutely BLOWN AWAY! It was a fabulous experience! Our guide, Caelen, was a wealth of knowledge! He had a story for everywhere we pointed and a masterful way of telling the stories! He deftly and sensitively read the group as he told some of the more disturbing elements of history. He also set a wonderful pace for the day that accommodated the different fitness level in our tour. The tour was constructed well, was well paced and as we were a private group booking was flexible to where we had to start and finish. I particularly enjoyed the segmenting of the history from Brisbane's Wartime growth and maturation, its colonial past and the history of the Aboriginal people in the area (Originally known as Meanjin). Another advantage of booking privately is we got a taste from another tour offered by Fit City of the more macabre elements of Brisbane's past (I think it was called "Bloody Brisbane" but don't quote me). Caelen dropped a few of those stories and tales in our tour seeing our fascination with these kind of stories. As a team bonding exercise and way of getting a deeper appreciation for Brisbane I can not recommend this highly enough! It was FANTASTIC!

10/10 - First time in Australia, my husband and I are a huge fan of exploring and learning about new places, plus donuts are an added perk! We had Celine as our tour guide and she was so great! Very knowledgeable and fun! Plus the donuts were delightful. She also provided great food recommendations for the area. Would definitely recommend!
