Many cities in Australia are great for mingling with the local, friendly people and Brisbane is no exception and the best place to do this is atop Mount Coot-tha. You will get a similar reception as you cruise the Brisbane River to South Bank’s sandy beach on the City Cat.
A great family outing, especially for the children, is a visit to Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary, home to koalas and kangaroos. Cuteness abounds!
