Historic Australia operates from Brisbane City, Queensland, offering guided walking tours that explore the region’s haunted sites, true crime history, gold rush heritage and local landmarks.
The business presents a wide range of experiences across Brisbane and regional locations including Lutwyche Cemetery, Toowong Cemetery, South Brisbane (Dutton Park) Cemetery, Goodna Cemetery, Ipswich Cemetery, and Charters Towers. Tours vary from 1 hour and 15 minutes to 2 hours and include specialist options such as the Toowong Cemetery Ghost Tour - The Original, Toowong Cemetery Ghost Tour - The Other Side, South Brisbane Cemetery Ghost and Boggo Road Jail crime tours, Haunted Brisbane and Ipswich CBD walks, and Charters Towers history and cemetery tours.
Guided by experienced storytellers, many tours emphasize historical research and on-site interpretation. Several cemetery tours request participants bring a torch; the South Brisbane tour is led by lantern light and provides a complimentary book. Some experiences pair historical storytelling with hands-on activities, for example the Venus Gold Battery experience and gold panning sessions at Venus Gold Battery.
Historic Australia offers both ghost and crime-focused walks, alongside history tours that examine gold rush heritage and notable local figures. Group sizes are intentionally limited on selected tours to maintain an intimate atmosphere and enhance safety on walking routes. Booking information, specific meeting points, accessibility details and exact durations are provided per experience at time of reservation.
Offerings also cover Ipswich Cemetery, Haunted Ipswich CBD, Goodna and Nundah cemeteries, bundled multi-tour events and seasonal scheduling with flexible dates and public holidays.
