Fresh experiences, fresh adventures and a fresh approach to life: that's what Brisbane is all about. It's a city where the air is filled with optimism and a sense of adventure is heavy on the ground. You'll be amazed by the attractions, the diverse place to visit and the fantastic range of Brisbane accommodation. You'll also be pleasantly surprised by the open and friendly attitude of the locals.
And no, this is no sleepy town; this is a city with an innovative and vibrant edge, a modern, free-spirited outlook and a determination to do things just that little bit differently. It's about down-to-earth experiences without the sky-high expense; it's about hedonistic pleasures without the pretension. And, of course, it's about a long-standing love affair with the outdoors. From pristine beaches to lush mountain hideaways, from a gently winding river to the aquatic paradise of Moreton Bay, Brisbane truly is a place where feeling alive comes naturally.
