About Queensland

Queensland is a mainland state in Australia and home to around 4.2million people, of which (42%) live in the capital city being Brisbane. Queensland is Australia's second largest state by area and has the country's third highest population. Today, Brisbane is well known for a growing live music scene, South Bank Parklands, City Botanic Gardens and the Brisbane River. When driving around, keep an eye open for the City Hall and Goodwill Bridge.

If you are not flying into Brisbane or one of the other regional airports, driving to Brisbane will take around 12 hours from Sydney and is a distance of 930 kilometres, the majority of which is driven on the picturesque Pacific Highway. Driving from Brisbane north to Cairns is further at around 1,681 kilometres and should take around 22 hours, along the Bruce Highway, a long trip but with plenty of interesting places to stop and rest up along the way.

Exploring Queensland

Rent a car and drive to the Gold Coast and surrounding rainforests and national parks, or explore the beaches at Surfers Paradise or the Sunshine Coast.
