With water costing more than fuel per litre and falling from the sky, why are we paying more? A large majority of these bottles are single use and end up in landfill. We at Brisbane Day Tours won't change the World but want to do our bit. Please buy one of our water bottles or bring one of your own. The water here in Brisbane and in Australia is 100% drinkable. On our tours your guide will point out where you can fill up for free. Remember you can take these bottles on the plane home.
