Fri 15 Oct: Queen Victoria Building - Sydney Harbour Lunch Cruise - Brisbane Breakfast & Lunch After breakfast and check out we board our coach and travel to the stunning Queen Victoria Building and experience 122 years of history, now affectionately known as the QVB. Designed by George McRae and completed in 1898 it replaced the original Sydney markets on the site. Built as a monument to the long reigning monarch, construction took place in dire times, as Sydney was in a severe recession. The elaborate Romanesque architecture was specially planned for the grand building so the Government could employ many out-of-work craftsmen - stonemasons, plasterers and stained window artists - in a worthwhile project. Originally, a concert hall, coffee shops, offices, showrooms, warehouses and a wide variety of tradespeople, such as tailors, mercers, hairdressers and florists, were accommodated. Before leaving we enjoy one last look at this beautiful harbour as we board our lunch cruise of Sydney Harbour. Following our cruise we transfer to the Sydney airport for check in and our return flights back to Brisbane after a wonderful time away on our Phantom of the Opera tour with Trade Travel.
