WE'RE HERE FOR YOU
Our services operate every day of the year, providing the people of Brisbane an affordable and reliable way to get around. Our CityCats cruise up and down the river between UQ St Lucia and Northshore Hamilton at a top speed of 25 knots whilst our smaller Cross River CityFerries and CityHopper services cruise at a more leisurely pace of around 10 knots.
Beat the city traffic and experience Brisbane from the water. The Brisbane River connects to a wealth of recreational, environmental, cultural and dining experiences.
