Things to do in Gold Coast

The Gold Coast Aquaduck tour is a unique sightseeing experience that allows you to enjoy both city street views and waterfront scenery. The itinerary is novel and interesting, the tour guides are lively, and you can experience both urban vitality and a relaxing cruise atmosphere, making it perfect for families or friends traveling together.

The boarding location is next to Sea World, and there's free parking available 🅿️. Since I had children with me, I upgraded to the Captain's VIP Lounge on-site. It included a complimentary fruit platter, drinks, and snacks, as well as an indoor lounge area with dedicated staff to assist you. Many people were experiencing seasickness due to the rough waves, so I took some anti-nausea medication before we departed.

The Brisbane BridgeClimb is an awesome, well-organized experience, totally worth it. The safety briefing is reassuring, the guides are friendly. The views from the top are breathtaking, especially over the river and city skyline. This is definitely a great pick.

Ticking off the bucketlist! Took the 5 minutes flight (tour 1) for 95 AUD per person. It was worth it. I would love to have the 10 or even the 15 minutes tour if budget was not an issue.

It was a beautiful sunny day when I went to the wildlife sanctuary, and I saw animals like koalas, kangaroos, and capybaras. If you love koalas, you can pay to hold one. The park is just the right size to explore in a day without too much walking; those who don't like to walk can take the small train. I walked in and took the train to the entrance, which was very comfortable.

Amazing experience at SkyPoint Observation Deck! The views are absolutely breathtaking and worth every moment. Super easy booking the ticket on Klook.

Movie World is the closest to a 'theme park' of the Gold Coast's Big 4. It's not huge, but the IP is solid, so even though Dreamworld is large, it feels like it's just 'filled with rides,' whereas Movie World feels full of content. Wet'n'Wild is the most 'Gold Coast'-like water park of the Big 4. When I was looking to book separately, I found that the price difference between buying tickets for two of the four parks separately and this package wasn't that big, but I'd have to specify dates, and I thought it would be a disaster if it rained. I had a great time at 3 of the Big 4 parks with this package, excluding Dreamworld.

Excellent! The orange roller coaster was fun. There was almost no line for the Giant Drop. King Cobra was comfortable to ride. Everything was not crowded, which was great.

Just tap the QR code at the entrance and you're all set. Very convenient. No need to print. Screenshot also works. Come early. Buy the express pass if you can. It will make your trip more enjoyable. The marine life presentations here are both entertaining and educational, with the dolphin show being an absolute highlight. The polar bear exhibit offers fascinating insights into these magnificent creatures, while the penguin encounter provides a delightful up-close experience. The Storm Coaster combines a thrilling ride with an educational element about extreme weather. The Nickelodeon Land area is perfect for younger children, featuring character meet-and-greets and gentler attractions. The seal presentation showcases the intelligence and agility of these amazing animals. The park's waterfront location provides beautiful views, especially at sunset. The underwater viewing areas offer a different perspective on marine life that shouldn't be missed.
