Boggo Road Gaol Ex-Inmate/Ex-Officer Tour

This winter, get the "inside story" from Ex-inmates and Ex-officers who formerly lived and worked within one of Queensland's most notorious prisons – Boggo Road Gaol. In this extraordinary 60-minute tour, you are invited to go behind the walls of the historic Number 2 Division, which was once home to some of the nation's most infamous inmates. Hosted by an Ex-inmate or Ex-officer, this tour will give the public a unique insight of what day to day life was like inside the gaol. The fascinating tour will commence at the gatehouse, and then weaves its way around The Circle, F Wing Cellblock and exercise yards. As the tour group makes its way through the gaol, your friendly host will share firsthand accounts of what they did on a daily basis, what it was like to spend your days with Queensland's worst criminals and what they did in times of riots, fires and rooftop protests.Tour participants are encouraged to ask questions throughout the tour, and you may just well be surprised by your guide's honesty and wit!
