Popular places to visit include The Strand, Castle Hill, Jezzine Barracks, Billabong Sanctuary, Riverway and the Townsville Palmetum.

With a private bus, you can choose the places you want to visit and plan the day around your group.
Can I hire a bus to visit The Strand and Castle Hill?
Yes. The Strand and Castle Hill are two of Townsville’s most popular attractions and can be included in a private sightseeing trip. The Strand is a waterfront destination with parks, walking paths and places to eat, while Castle Hill offers panoramic views across Townsville and towards Magnetic Island. We’ll need to check suitable vehicle access and stopping points for your chosen bus.

Can I hire a bus for a Great Barrier Reef tour from Townsville?
We can arrange group transfers to the relevant Townsville marina or departure point for your reef tour.

You can enquire about a private bus charter to Paluma and Little Crystal Creek, popular destinations for rainforest scenery, walking tracks and natural swimming areas.
