Thank you. I'm planning our holidays to Brisbane and surrounding areas and have already watched several videos. Finally I got from your videos what I was looking for on information. I will also check for glasshouse mountains, Tamborin, Byron bay and Ballina. 😊👍

You have really good info here Chris! Looks like there’s quite a few options for transport. Here in the US our public transport kinda sucks ☹️

I think it depends on the city sometimes too. I found Tokyo amazing for public transport. Their metro system was the best I've seen. I like the free options and passes for tourists...just makes it a little easier. The scooters were really fun, but expensive for a one off thing... the passes are definitely better on that but you have to watch you don't go over 90 mins... so planning is key. Thanks for watching guys 👍

Hey Chris this was such an informative video. There are so many options to get around. If we ever make it to Brisbane we will have to watch it again to plan everything out. How cool there is a free ferry service!

Hey guys....I think research all this I wasn't aware of so many options. I new about the free ferry but not the bus. Must admit the bus is not my favorite mode of transport but I'll do it if I have to....lol. Not my normal at me of video but I wanted to do it for my local blogs and extra value when telling people to visit somewhere... I'll see how it goes. Maybe you should do one like this for getting around St Pete 👍😁

@@AquariusTraveller we are the same way about the bus. It is nice that there is a bus option but it can take quite a while. I would think your video would do well long term, many people are curious about transportation options and I really do think it is very helpful. That is actually a great suggestion 😁 We have had some comments asking about getting around. St Pete is in the process of adding a rapid transit bus system that will run between downtown and the beach. We are hoping to highlight that when it is up and running!

Hi Amanda, thanks for your comment. I'm looking at filming a "Brisbane to Gold Coast Public Transport Video" soon and "getting around the Gold Coast", so stay tuned. I was scheduling to film this week but the weather hasn't been good, so I'll have to try and get there sometime this month.

That is a very nice video. Thank you.

I have some plans coming up and expecting having knowledge about the public transport options in how to get around, will be handy - not to mention helpful on my Brisbane Based blogs! I don't tend to use Public Transport much these days, but use to train it into Brisbane every day for work. It helped a lot knowing that first and the rest kind of falls into place. I didn't know about the See Q card until a month ago doing my research...very handy for visitors! Stunt Riding...LOL. We both enjoyed the Scooters - They are a new way to get around and very convenient compared to walking! Matt gets forced to help me film sometimes - It's great he can find some fun in it......it was definitely a long, tiring day to film it all. Thanks for watching Bernie !

You right... there are plenty of walking and bike tracks around that area but more so follow the river and most people use them for exercise. What you're trying to do is cross the river and I don't see a way around that without biking on the road. Obviously, it can be done but not sure i would like it during busy Brisbane traffic. Where we you now and do you ride in traffic there all the time ?

Why is it so expensive?

@AquariusTraveller

7 ай бұрын

Are you talking about the public transport in general or a particular service? Overall, I think it's comparable to other aussie capital citys and still cheaper than hiring a car. Still, there are ways to make it cheaper using the free services or travelling out of busy work hours. It's almost half the cost during the day or on weekends :)

@ahuman5772

2 күн бұрын

Compared to where? In most of Europe the fares were about twice the price, it's quite cheap in Brisbane comparatively. And they're going to 50c soon!

@AquariusTraveller

2 күн бұрын

Yep.... one more month to go for that. I wonder how long it will be in for 😀

don't go there, the only true way to understand a cities public transport is by it's trains as the rest are just subsidiary (trains carry much more), sorry but Brisbane has the worst: (Brisbane) Runcorn 30min / Sandgate 30 min (Melbourne) Batman 20min / Heidelberg 20min (Sydney) Punchbowl 15min / Warrawee 15min (Perth) Gosnells 15min / Butler 15min (no change, no express, middle of the day) (oh bus past my place(bris) one a hour) (busses are subject to need and fad - oh Perth busses work with the trains)
