River City Cruise

01/07/2024

Last month, Beyond Vision joined forces with the always-helpful Paul James Copseyey and Chris Smith from Love To Assist for a highly enjoyable outing on the River City Cruise, which was fully narrated, morning tea was provided and there was even a bar onboard for those who were so inclined. Overall, the cruise was relaxing and left us with a wholesome feeling which was exactly what we needed - I highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to explore the Brisbane river and its majesty.

Please watch the video if you would like to know how it went or what the cruise was like.
