Hi, I’m Maddy

Brisbane

I love how Brisbane invites you to explore - from hiking up Mt Coot-tha to strolling along the riverwalk or catching an indie gig in a tucked-away bar. On weekends, you’ll usually find me wandering through the Botanic Gardens and ending up at Howard Smith Wharves for caffeine and people-watching. I know the ins and outs of Toowong, Taringa, Milton, St Lucia, the CBD, West End, and Kangaroo Point - the perfect spots for food lovers, sunset seekers, and anyone who wants to feel like a true local.

Here’s how I can help make your experience unique.

Hi, I’m Evan

Brisbane

I love sharing the best of Brisbane, from the lively streets of Fortitude Valley to the cultural hub of New Farm and the riverside beauty of Southbank. Brisbane’s subtropical climate makes it perfect for outdoor adventures, whether kayaking along the river, taking a CityCat ferry, or cheering at sporting fixtures like the Broncos or Brisbane Heat. I’m passionate about the city’s food scene, from Asian delights in Sunnybank to Southbank’s diverse eateries, and I love showing visitors the hidden gems across neighborhoods like West End, Kangaroo Point, and Woolloongabba. Let’s explore Brisbane’s flavors, culture, and iconic spots together!

Fun fact about me

I love my footy. I support West Tigers in the National Rugby League (NRL) & Carlton Blues in the Australian Football League (AFL).

Hi, I’m Renae

Brisbane

I love Brisbane for its river alfresco culture, warm weather, and the mix of city life and nature. I enjoy walking to the summit of Mount Gravatt, spotting koalas in the national park, and exploring events, theatre, galleries, and restaurants. I love trying the dining options at the Star Casino, attending Brisbane Festival and QPAC shows, and discovering the best outdoor walks and happenings around the parklands and city. I know Southbank, CBD, New Farm, Fortitude Valley, James Street, and West End very well. I am passionate about bush walking, photography, finding great bars and restaurants, and hosting events and business meetings.

Hi, I’m Frank

Brisbane

I love the city’s relaxed vibe and our beautiful sub-tropical climate, which makes Brisbane a great place to enjoy year-round. Being retired gives me the freedom to dive into the ever-growing food scene, especially around Queen’s Wharf and Howard Smith Wharves, where there’s always something new to try. I’m also an avid photographer and enjoy wandering the streets capturing the character of this amazing city. From the CBD and Fortitude Valley to West End, South Brisbane, Milton, New Farm, and Kangaroo Point, I know the neighborhoods inside out. I keep up with the latest events and hidden gems and, living in the CBD, I’m a pro at getting around using Brisbane’s fantastic public transport system. Let’s explore together!

Anne 23 January 2026

Cherida’s tour was a highlight of our visit to Melbourne. She reached out with a proposed itinerary, then customized it to our interests, which made it a special experience. We learned much about the history of Melbourne, some of the important people who helped shape it, and visited some beautiful, historic buildings (don’t miss the State Library!). We saw some laneways and arcades, and ended at the Queen Victoria Market. Highly recommend Cherida’s tour.

FAQs

Your questions, answered

Are experiences the same as tours?

No. Our experiences are unscripted and designed around you. Instead of following a rigid itinerary, your host will plan a personalized journey that feels natural, immersive, and unique.

How does personalization work?

After booking, you’ll receive a short questionnaire where you can share your interests, travel style, and any must-see spots. Based on that, we’ll match you with a local host who’ll reach out to plan your personalized itinerary..

What if I don’t know what I want to explore?

That’s completely fine! Select an experience theme or a flexible discovery experience, and after booking, answer a few questions so your host can design the perfect experience for you.

Will I know my itinerary in advance?

Yes, you will have the opportunity to chat with your host directly and agree on a plan for the day. However, there’s always room for spontaneity and local surprises!

Can I request specific places or types of stops?

Yes! After booking, you will receive a questionnaire where you can highlight must-visit spots and anything else you’d like to include, and your host will craft your experience around them.

Can I adjust the plan on the day?

Absolutely. Your host can adjust the itinerary on the day based on your pace, energy, or any new ideas you have. It’s a flexible experience from start to finish.

Can I mix different themes in one experience?

Yes! You can blend food, culture, history, neighborhoods, or even a bit of nightlife if time allows. Just share your interests in the questionnaire, and your host will build the day around them.

Can my host meet me at my accommodation?

Hotel meet-ups are available upon request in central areas. If you're staying outside the city, your host will recommend the best meeting spot and guide you with directions.
