🚌 A history BUS Tour with a twist!

Be introduced to Teneriffe and New Farm - as we take in the sights for our 2nd Bus Tour. BRING YOUR GO-Card and Mask😷 to board the Bus 🚌🚌🚌

Learn about Homes with History taking in both sides of the New Farm/Teneriffe Peninsula.

We begin in Teneriffe which was once the ‘industrial side’ of the peninsula, with its shipping, timber-milling, brewing, sugar refining, petroleum and wool storage, and gasworks.

Next we board the 199 Bus for a 10-minute ride to the scenic side. Here you will walk past several heritage houses and learn a little about the people who lived there. Next, you can take in a panoramic view of the river, the city and the Story Bridge.

Finally we return to Teneriffe via the 199 bus.
