I loved this tour - Thank you Lee-Ann for showing me the beautiful art work on this 3 hour walking tour. I enjoyed your descriptions and our little discussions about each piece. You got to know what I was interested in and made it personalized. This tour has you looking in every direction to find more art. Lee-Ann is very knowledgeable and at the end of this tour you keep looking for more art work in Brisbane. Thanks again Lee-Ann

Art & Design Brisbane - A wonderful and eye-opening way to explore Brisbane : very worthwhile! If I did it again tomorrow I’m sure I would enjoy it just as much (and see other artworks too).

Insider Knowledge of Great City Art and Design - This walking tour shows you the hidden gems of art and design that proliferate the Brisbane CBD. The tour trains you to look up and down as well as at street level because Brisbane's art is in a myriad of places. Tour guide Lee-Ann has a wonderful knowledge of the works and will open your eyes to another side of the city.

Amazing Tour / Amazing guide / The best experince ever - We started preparing our visit to Brisbane a few months in advance and looked for local guides with great expertise. It's not that easy esp if you are coming from the other part of the world and have no connections at your chosen destination. After thoughtful research I have come across WalkBrisbane and Lee-Anne - a director of the company. I must say that the way she handled all our requirements and questions was absolutely amazing! Not only was she always available to assist with advice/recommendation/response to email (despite 11 hrs difference) but she planned the tour in details taken on board all our preferences and needs. The tour was a combination of City introduction and Art/Design as we were quit limited in time. Everyone loved it, loved Lee-Anne and I recommend her agency with pleasure and confidence. If you want to fall in love with Brisbane - walk with with WalkBrisbane! Maria (UK)
