Cruise to Lunch Package

Combining Two of Brisbane’s Must-Do Activities

The Cruise to Lunch offers you the chance to spend the day with two popular Brisbane identities: River City Cruises and The Breakfast Creek Hotel. Aboard the boat, you’ll enjoy informative commentary about the region and a morning tea to satisfy your onboard cravings. The first part of the morning cruise lasts for 45 minutes until you reach your next destination: The Breakfast Creek Hotel, where you’ll spend the next 2 hours.

The Breakfast Creek Hotel is a well-loved hotspot for both locals and tourists. After a 400-meter walk through the park following the creek from the landing dock, you can enjoy a delicious meal featuring their famous steaks and more. It’s hard to leave with a rumbling stomach!

Passengers are invited to participate exclusively in the private bar for the traditional “Spiking of the Keg” at 11:45 am and will be treated to a sample of the famous “Beer off the wood” along with a bit of a history lesson while enjoying their beer. Afterward, you’ll return to the vessel to continue the second part of the 90-minute tour with more informative commentary as you cruise back to South Bank.

Inclusions:

  • Devonshire tea: Fresh scones with jam, cream, and strawberries
  • Coffee and tea
  • Guided scenic river tour
  • Lunch and beer tasting experience at the famous Breakfast Creek Hotel
  • All inclusive

Note: Licensed bar onboard for separate purchases. Some basic extra snacks and non-alcoholic drinks are also available for purchase onboard. Enjoy a decent selection of beer, wine, spirits, cider, and ginger beer.

Please note that this cruise suits groups of 20 or fewer. If you are a larger group wanting to enjoy a cruise with lunch, we recommend the South Bank Combo Pass, which can accommodate up to 65 passengers.

If you find a 400-meter (7-minute) walk and a few steps challenging, you might find our 90-minute options more suitable.
