Historical murders - Claire was a great storyteller, informing us of the dark side of Brisbane's history. Stories were unbelievable, sad and devastating. Learning about the history was very interesting. Easy, flat walking most of the time, except the last leg up to Wickham Tce.

Excellent tour! - It was an excellent tour! I'm brisbane local and I had so much fun learning about brisbane darker history. The walking pace is entirely reasonable and the tour guide checks in on u to make sure we all can keep up comfortably. The stories are interesting and engaging. Our guide was very funny! Sorry I didn't catch her name but she has the cutest dog in Queensland (or so we have been told). Definitely checking out their other tours in short future!
