The Wheel of Brisbane
About The Wheel of Brisbane
Suppose climbing Story Bridge seems like too much of an effort for you. In that case, Brisbane's Wheel of Brisbane likewise provides breathtaking 360-degree views over the metropolitan area and the hinterland, but from the relative comfort of a space pod. You can ride this famous Brisbane monument during the day, at dusk as the sun sets, or at night as the city lights come on. It soars over the skyline.

It's a 12 minute ride, about 4-5 times around. Beautiful, for sure. Air conditioned, music, comfortable ride. A little more expensive than what I thought for 12 minutes. The photos are $28/ piece, which I thought was ridiculous.nWarning, the espresso at the Cafe is terrible.
It is suitable for the afternoon trip, it will be hot in the morning or at noon. There are many areas where you can relax, including the famous man-made beach, which is very suitable for family and friends.
An iconic attraction in Brisbane, and some pleasant views of the river and Brisbane skyline from the wheel. The queues were relatively short at our time of visiting, and we had an entire cabin to ourselves. We circulated about 5 times and were on the wheel for about 10 minutes or so. Staff were helpful and it was an enjoyable experience. The optional photos are quite expensive ($28).
Nice activity to do during a hot summer day! The carriage has air con so you can cool down :) there are many great views to take in during the rotations on the wheel - a total of 5 rotationsnYou receive a guide as well as audio which explains the surrounding sights and attractions.
Very nice experience.nYou get a nice view of the city. The cabins are air conditioned. Its a bit small from the wheel in Singapore.
We had a lovely time on the wheel. It was so cool to see the city at night from so high high up. And we were allowed to go around 5 times, definitely got our moneys worth. We went after dinner and there was no wait at all. Plus, there's a nice photo opportunity if you're looking for a momento.
Great views of the city to the mountains. We're very lucky to live in such a pretty city. You can also buy drinks for your ride soft drinks to wine. The over all price $$ but worth it for the views.
OK. Not that big but still a decent view. Seats in gondolas a bit tatty across the board. As they were slowly coming to rest there were quite a number that I hoped didn't stop in front of our group. Could do with a reupholster. We got about 5 rotations for our ride. Staff friendly.
Great communication from staff and service was quick. We went around 5 times and enjoyed the ride. We didn't have to wait long as it wasnt crowded at all. A must do when your in the area. Cafes and restaurants near by and beautiful views of the city. Kids under age of 4 are free. Air conditioned inside. They even have a vip carriage. There is no free car parking near only across the road under the museum but costs $15 for 2hrs and can get very expensive the longer you stay. Alot of parking though and easy to direct from the car park to the ferris wheel.
Got on our first night in Brisbane. Great way of seeing the Brisbane cityscapes. You can have chilled wine while enjoying the view as well. Went around about 5 times - thought it was pretty good value.
Good experience, the wheel provides a beautiful, picturesque view of the Brisbane city, you can look far and wide from your cabin but it's a bit pricey though. We paid $65 for 2 adults n 2 kids under 11 and family photo. The wheel is located at very happening location. There is beautiful walking track on the south Bank where you can also ride electric bikes/scooters.
My boyfriend and I went on the Ferris Wheel on my birthday and had a wonderful time. We chose not to buy the photo of us since we didn't think that we needed them. A week later, my boyfriend passed away suddenly. I was so upset and scrambled to contact The Wheel of Brisbane staff in hopes of finding the picture so that I could have a memory of that beautiful day. The staff were more than helpful with my request and I truly appreciate the lengths they went to into finding the photo for me. Thank you Wheel of Brisbane team!!
our seating area on the wheel fell not sure it was part of the act fun though recommended for everyone
It's beautiful whenever I went there. Wish Could visit again.
