Hello and welcome to Brisbane, I am Roger! As a world traveler you will be very glad you added Brisbane to your bucket list. Whether you love parks and gardens, culture and history, the great outdoors, or an intimate exploration by foot, you have found the right person to fulfill your dream outcome in Brisbane. I moved to Brisbane in the year 2000, having lived previously in Melbourne, Canberra, Perth and Sydney. I fell in love with Brisbane and on retirement made the easy decision to make Brisbane my permanent home. I have experienced the rapid growth of The River City from a large country town into a diverse, world-class city. Affectionately known to locals as "Brisy" or "Brisvegas", the Brisbane region is now bristling with excitement. Massive infrastructure development is preparing South East Queensland to host the Olympic Games in 2032. On retirement, I established a quality B&B in my home with a 5. 8 star rating for six years. I thoroughly enjoyed hosting guests from every continent. I am a part-time Uber driver, know the city, suburbs and surrounds very well, and love meeting people from around the globe. I have traveled to more than thirty countries and am completely at home with friends from other cultures. I also revel in the international flavour of my family with children married to an Englishman, an American and a Brazilian. Sign up for one of my tours today. Personalized attention is my signature. Just imagine the beautiful life-time memories we will create together. - Degree in Aeronautical Engineering from Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology. - Commercial Pilots LIcence - Degree in Theology from the Alliance College of Theology, Canberra. - Masters Degree in Leadership from Moody Graduate School, Chicago, USA. - Doctor of Divinity, Taccoa Falls College, Georgia, USA - Pastor for thirty six years - Booked Hire Service Licence. - Senior Trainer, International Training Alliance.

Overview of your Brisbane tour

6 hour tour of Brisbane highlights in a clean, air conditioned Toyota RAV4. During my years as an UBER driver I have heard some incredible stories I would love to share with you. I have also discovered some hidden gems that most tourists will miss. For example who knows about the only residential bridge in Brisbane? Having lived here for 24 years, and previously in Melbourne, Canberra, Perth and Sydney, it was an easy choice to make this my retirement home. I have come to love this city with its laid-back lifestyle, sub-tropical climate and what feels like day after day of clear blue skies. I can customise this tour to suit your requirements.
