Boat hire on the Brisbane River

The Brisbane River winds right through the city, past the CBD towers, Kangaroo Point cliffs, South Bank and New Farm. A cruise is calm water all the way, which makes it an easy choice for big groups and first-timers. Every boat comes with its own skipper and crew.

Popular occasions

Where you board

River boats commonly pick up near the City Botanic Gardens and New Farm Park. Each boat lists its pick-up points on its own page.

What it costs

Each boat shows its starting price and the price per person at full capacity. Choose a date, time and group size on any boat to see the full total, including food and drink packages, before you book.
