Christmas in Brisbane City

Day 1

High Tea at Stamford Plaza
Transfer late morning to The Stamford Plaza, Brisbane. Enjoy High Tea before settling into your room where you can choose to relax and enjoy your surroundings or perhaps take an afternoon stroll along the Brisbane River boardwalk. Late afternoon, journey to Mount Coot-tha where you can take in the spectacular panoramic views over the CBD before dinner at the Summit Restaurant. Travel back to King George Square where City Hall becomes the backdrop for the light spectacular; an animated Christmas story beaming brightly with enchanting narrative.

Day 2

Merry Christmas
There will be an opportunity for you to attend a Christmas church service or spend time enjoying the hotel facilities. Today we will enjoy a seafood buffet luncheon with lashings of sides and decadent desserts at the Stamford before an afternoon at leisure. This evening we will join back together for a BBQ dinner, completing a special day.

Day 3

Brisbane River Cruise
Today we’ll board our Brisbane River cruise, where the skipper will share his knowledge gained from many years of experience. Be sure to wear your hat, sunscreen and walking shoes today. Relax as we meander downstream enjoying morning tea and lunch onboard. Pass by the Kangaroo Point Cliffs before cruising under the historic Story Bridge. See the iconic homes of yesteryear and some of Brisbane’s most prime real estate near the beautiful Newstead Park. We proceed under the Gateway Bridge, and Sir Leo Hielscher Bridge, and continue on to the bustling Port of Brisbane where the mouth of the Brisbane River joins Moreton Bay, before returning back to South Bank. Return to The Stamford for some free time before dinner.

Day 4

City Botanic Gardens – Home
Following another leisurely breakfast and perhaps a stroll along the boardwalk or in the Botanic Gardens, it will be time to check out. After saying your farewells, our staff will organise your transfers late morning.
