We would rather take a passenger ferry and local transport than bring the vehicle, and hope roughly five hours on the island will not exhaust the children.
We have one shore day and want a simple transfer plus a few city highlights and a river ferry.
I have three city days in April and would like one train, bus or ferry outing to a coastal or inland place without renting a car.
The flight leaves at 5 am and I may need to leave the CBD before normal public transport starts.
We have three Brisbane nights and a car; one proposed day covers Springbrook and Tamborine, while another links Maleny, Eumundi, Noosa and several coastal stops.
We may stay in South Bank first and are comparing trains, buses and a rental car for the rest of the trip.
We are ending a month-long trip before flying to Canada and want a modest, walkable base for parks, river ferries and perhaps gentle cycling or kayaking.
I am trying to choose between bus, train and a direct ride for a first arrival and do not want a confusing final walk with a suitcase.
My daughter wants cafes and restaurants; I want safe, walkable streets and shops, and we need a reliable two-bedroom apartment.
Our children are three and six, and we expect a week in Brisbane, a week travelling north and a week in Cairns with another week still unallocated.
We are staying in an apartment near Herschel Street, will cook dinner at home and want varied daytime meals, from casual counters to a special lunch.
My Australia flight lands in Brisbane in October, but I plan to fly on to Cairns and work south over a month; I am unsure whether a few Brisbane days first improve the trip.
