More Information & FAQs

Have questions before you book? You’ll find everything you need to know right here. From what to bring to how our tours run, Brisbane Unexpected has you covered with all the details to help you feel prepared and excited for your experience.

Tour Experience & Itinerary

Our guided walks are carefully curated to optimise your experience and provide the most informative yet engaging information, so we choose venues and the route based on this.

From time to time, we may have to alter the route of the walk due to circumstances beyond our control such as construction, street closure, festivals or events. We will ensure that you still have a wonderful experience.

Please contact us directly to discuss your needs and arrange a corporate group tour.

Unfortunately, we cannot allow dogs on our tours as venues we visit do not allow pets and some of our routes would be uncomfortable to navigate with dogs.

There is no upper age limit on our walks! You must be able to walk unassisted and be able to cover the distance with some incline and stairs.

The minimum age for the tour is 12 years. Please see our children policy for further details.

All children must be accompanied by an adult and be 12 years or older. Please advise us ahead of the tour if there is a child in your booking. We do not offer children’s discount.

Accessibility & Special Requirements

We are currently building an accessible version of our guided walks. Please use the Contact Us form if you would like to ask an accessibility question about our current walks.

Central, Roma St, South Brisbane and South Bank train stations offer luggage lockers. Our walks start and end in public places so cannot accommodate luggage storage.

Booking & Group Requirements

We require a minimum of two people per tour for the tour to proceed. If we don’t reach that we will do our best to ensure you can join another tour on offer.

Please ensure you are not late. After 10 minutes the tour will need to move to the next location promptly for the other guests. If you have run into unforeseen circumstances and know you will be running late, please call our guide via WhatsApp on +61 498 513 068

Weather, Safety & Tour Operation

Walks will go ahead in minor weather conditions such as light rain or wind. In the event that severe weather, or a government directive, means the tour cannot proceed you will be contacted to arrange an alternate tour date or provided with a full refund

Your safety is important to us. All our guides are trained in basic first aid and will dial 000 in an emergency. We request that you listen to the guides instructions throughout the walk so you can enjoy a safe and wonderful experience.

If we are required to cancel a tour due to illness or other unforeseen circumstance, you will receive a full refund.
