Brisbane stands for diversity. Here, historic buildings sit next to skyscrapers, and Western and Pacific art are exhibited side by side in museums. You can swim in the sea or climb to dizzying heights and the cuisine also combines different traditions. Would you like to explore this cultural hotspot of Australia in more detail? Then a scavenger hunt in Brisbane is the right choice. Together with friends or family, you can explore the city, solve tricky puzzles and get to know "Brissie" up close.
Like most cities in Australia, Brisbane is young: it was only granted city rights in 1902. It's hard to believe when you look at the impressive skyline today. In just over 100 years, over two million people have moved to what is now the third-largest city in the country.
Created as a penal colony in 1824, the land was opened for settlement less than 20 years later. The oldest monuments in the city include the Custom House, the Old Government House and Parliament House. Many of these buildings are in the Victorian style, as Australia only gained its independence from Great Britain in the 20th century. As you wander the streets of Brisbane on your scavenger hunt, you will see the mix of old and new architecture that characterizes the city.
Next to the Albert Street Uniting Church, for example, skyscrapers tower upwards, clearly surpassing the church spire. Even the towers of the great St. John's Cathedral do not reach the height of the huge office towers made of glass, concrete and steel. Although the cathedral looks historic, it too is more recent - construction work was completed in 2008. This makes it the youngest neo-Gothic cathedral in the world.
There are many other unique features in the city. The best way to discover the fascinating panoramas is to stroll from place to place on foot. This is exactly what our Brisbane scavenger hunt offers you. As a team, you roam the streets together, exploring the soul of the city and solving tricky challenges at the same time. How does it work? It's quite simple. You buy your tickets and head to the starting point. There you log into our app and are already in the middle of the game. Now you decide who will be your game master and assign the other roles - then it's off to the first station using GPS navigation in the app.
The challenges are spread throughout the city, so you will pass many places of interest. Solving the tasks requires logic, a trained eye and a little knowledge of the city. If you puzzle together, you are sure to find the right answer. This will earn you more points for your team´s account - maybe you'll even finish the scavenger hunt in Brisbane as the new number one on our leaderboard?
Would you like to experience even more urban adventures in addition to your Brisbane scavenger hunt? Then we recommend a visit to the Story Bridge. Its spectacular steel structure spanning the Brisbane River is an attraction in itself and one of the most popular photo opportunities. But the bridge also has another special feature: you can climb the pillars as part of a guided tour. The view from the top is magnificent, but only those with a head for heights can really enjoy it.
If you'd rather stay on the ground after your scavenger hunt in Brisbane, then head down to South Bank. This is a fine sandy beach in the middle of the city. Once home to industry, the beach is now a popular meeting place. If, for once, it's not bathing weather - Brisbane is known for its warm climate - the many museums are an excellent alternative. Here you can learn more about history and culture after the scavenger hunt. In the Gallery of Modern Art museum, you will find exhibitions of Australian contemporary art as well as a large collection of Asia-Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art, i.e. art by locals. To round off your experience perfectly, you can stop off at one of the many restaurants. Here you can sample dishes from all over the world so that you can recharge your batteries!
